He is not just a drummer, he is a true MUSICIAN. He can really make his drums SING!!!

Steve Jordan is the ONLY acceptable human that can wear sunglasses indoors.

this dude is a BEAST. i don't even play drums and this dude inspires me

Steve Jordan is an amazing drummer and human being!

"Music is life". So true. I love his passion and his story about performing with James Brown on the Letterman show.

Literally, music is life as we know it. Everything is frequency and vibration.

Steve Jordan said it. Music is life. I can relate to the Miles Davis in one ear and the Beatles in the other. Keith Richards brought me here. Thank you Steve. Great story's.

When he said it was the greatest Letterman performance of all time I thought, mmm, OK. Just watched it and it is. Amazing.

It was and you Steve played absolutely amazing I was trying to catch my breath when you guys finished it was amazing small set ❤

Brilliant player, wonderful man and a gift to the world at large...

Steve Jordan, love your passion! Thank you for sharing you journey, so inspiring! T.

Gotta be the coolest player out there. Great dude. This is such a great discussion by Steve. Amazing sound he has. Intangible excellence.

Favorite drummer

Man,he tells good stories

I watched that David Letterman video. That was intense! I'll bet that was one of the biggest nights ever on that show.

Such a great video...full of very good suggestions and advice from a living legend! Thanks Steve Jordan for sharing your back-beat groove with us all!! Little Drummer Channel ;)

Music is life! Great guy!

i saw him with clapton mind blowing. watch the blues brothers live at winterland 1978 best drummer ever!!

100% right, backbone of the band

This made my day

5:35 he sums everything up about why I love playing. I am not a control freak by nature, but I love the pressure that comes with driving the ship.

wonderful! very good! amazing!

"Music gives live. "Music sustains life." "Music is life." - Steve Jordan Same man same...

What an awesome person and great drummer... I would love to jam with him just once...

FAN since 1978 ! My idol ! 1st !

Great man and great musician

The James Brown on Letterman is my next recommended video. Can't wait to see it.

By far one of the greatest drummers today.

this guy is soon 58 years old...looks like 35

Steve Jordan...Aki olyan pontos, hogy órát lehet hozzá igazítani!👍

Very inspiring thanks Steve

yeahhh....a new video of Steve....he could probably do a show alone and people would watch

Mr. Steve Jordan's performance on the John Scofield ELECTRIC OUTLET album (1984) is probably one of the finest in all of recorded history. If you appreciate drumming, it's essential listening.

Damn right Steve the Tami show was the greatest ever...

This ride cymbal is amazing!!! Is it a giant beat or a 2002?

The Stevie Wonder of drumming!

I'll never forget James Brown on Letterman. That's right. Hirum Bullock was before Sid. Backing James up must have been the Holy Grail.

What can be said for the man that plays in Keith Richards' side project (you better be more than just good); then you are picked by none other than Charlie Watts(R.I.P) to fill in when Charlie couldn't resume part of a tour for the Rolling Stones. Now he is in the drummer's throne for the Rolling Stones since we all recently lost Charlie Watts. Steve Jordan can absolutely do the job, and does it above and beyond! Rock on Steve.....

We grew up da same & music has changed,sadly our schoolz needz 2 stop removin it from our schoolz...... Da rapz has 2 much adult containz n it.. But MUSIC RULEz Da WORLD..... God Bless Bro!

+Giordano Rosadoni Actually it looks like a standard Yamaha steel snare.

Dat snare.

Parents influence, lucky guy.

Filling in for Charlie watts this fall on their live shows,it should be interesting

Ironically I believe that the greatest Live TV performance was Neil Young SNL 1989. Steve was playing drums that night. Hmmm

Yeah that's like the worst thing, I always tell me bandmates that if any of them mess something up either no one notices or no one cares but if the drummer drops even a single beat it gets everyone's attention. Extra pressure

Bass player CANNOT “flub” that is instantly noticeable!!!!

This is the Letterman performance Steve is talking about: kzread.info/dash/bejne/n52r3NikdbaoeZs.html

i just realized how low he plays his hats

5:32 is Waiting on the World to Change
