I think Steve's message is just play what's you feel and what is right for the music...don't worry about too much else. There are some guys that make me feel like selling all my gear...he makes me just want to play music.

It seem so many comments about drumming pertain to technique and speed, but this playing here is based upon his life experiences, listening to all that soul music as a child and knowing the history of the music and so much more. A lot of the things he plays are not even in the books but instead are in his soul and that is where it all comes from. Before all of this technique and speed nonsense their was the raw emotion of just playing without the intent of sounding like a mechanical robot as so many drummers now a day do. Groovin, playing slow, mid tempo as well as making mistakes are very natural musical elements. Rely on your own heartbeat and forget about the metronome sometimes. It is okay to breathe while you play. This video is a perfect example of that by one of the greatest drummers ever who can play anything and it sounds so good. Ultimately the technique (if you will) is his natural abilities just coming out in his playing. You can't teach this because it is him and it is original. So many drummers are concerned about sounding like someone else but neglect to develop sounding like themselves. As I was told by an alltime great drummer many years ago " if you are gonna spend 10 hours a day practicing your drums, then make sure you are practicing to develop and sound like yourself and that is how you distinguish yourself from the others" and I do agree. That is the best technique!!!

What's so interesting about Steve is that you can hear him playing some of the tightest, most controlled and technical grooves/licks, and then turn around and play the loosest, almost sloppy pocket without falling apart. Takes a hell of an ear and talent to do that.

+Herman Melville Yeah. So much space between his hits. Never heard anyone shuffle quite like him...reminds me of someone walking on a tightrope - bouncing and almost falling off but still staying on that rope. Although that space between the notes is consistent so it is very controlled. A unique pocket and a unique player indeed.

I'm starting to feel like you can place the notes *anywhere*, so long as they're in the same place each bar. Like the snare can be as lazy as you like, but if the backbeat shifts between chorus/verse you'll alter the groove (fine if intentional, but it's damn hard to get right...)

Aside from the timing, the consistency of the notes (i.e. the snare hits all sound the same) and the control of dynamics (the difference in volume between the various and individual instruments) are very important in the sum of the overall feel and groove. I've also noticed my favorite groove drummers hold no tension in their bodies. I feel most beginners and intermediates play with a lot of tension and mostly from the shoulders and elbows, and also hit the drums with too much velocity, choking the natural resonance of the drums. Most advanced drummers play without tension and mostly from the wrist and fingers and also have a looser/softer touch allowing the sticks to rebound naturally.

Solo's a personal representation of a given piece..keyword "personal"...and it did fit the song, if you listen he kept time with the bass. He played in front and behind the beat (jazz technique).

How come it sounds like there are 2 or 3 drummers playing ?, not only that but a groove that is so in the pocket I could listen to himjust play the drum track all day long. He's as good as Purdy but he can also play ANY type of music, I've seen him with everybody from Herbie Hancock to Eric Clapton and a bunch of others he just plays exactly what's needed.The Irony is I'm a guitar player but one thing I KNOW is if you ever find a drummer this good take out a 2nd mortgage, sell your wife & kids :) whatever its takes, guys like him and a few others like Vinnie C, Jeff Pocaro(RIP),Steve Gadd etc. create a wall of sound and rhythm that enables to just play a few real tasty licks without the pressure of feeling you also have to fill in the weakness of the rhythm section. I'm sure you drummers can explain it a more technical way.Whatever, I'd sell my soul not to be able to play like Hendrix but be able play WITH a drummer this great.
