As an 82 year old drummer who also had no formal lessons I feel exactly the same way. Thanks a million Rob.

Closing in to 70 and I feel I’m not the only one learning something new from Rob. Who said old dogs can’t learn new tricks.

I saved the money and finally received my own Paiste Masters Swish last week. After playing it for a week I can say that I love that cymbal. She responds to even the softest touch. If having feelings for a cymbal is wrong, then I don't want to be right!

A friend of mine bid on and won Bill Brufords Paiste Swish when Bruford was selling all his gear off. He never revealed how much he paid for it but I'm guessing MUCH dollar... totally worth it though 😁

I’m a bass player. I don’t play drums at all, though I do own a kit..... _old drummer borrowed and crashed my car, then left town. I kept his kit_ So much useful information. Found This channel when I was trying too tune the kit after stripping it, taking it back to natural wood, cleaning it and reskinning it. Sounds awesome now.

@@shugyoforyou211 cheers I got out and repaired it, cost my $900 in parts from a wrecker and a solid day pulling it down and putting back together. He owed me another $1,800 in advances on gigs and his share of the money I had forked out for rehearsals, posters, and reskinning the snare. Just the cost of doing business with some musicians. You just get on with your life.

Whenever I see you teach I'm always super impressed with your ideas, enthusiasm and above all, your groove. That you take the time to share is way cool.

Rob, your practical application of well, just so many things is fantastic. Thank you so much for being here!

Mind blown, currently working through mixed hi-hat patterns with ghosted snare notes using various paradiddle combinations and this drops. Rob, it’s like you’re watching over us! Awesome lesson!

Rob, you are awesome, you have a very special way of teaching, that sticks immediately,, thanks for everything

Brilliant use of a simple rudiment, clearly explained as usual. Thanks again Mr Brown!

I've watched several of your Videos. Your Technique is awesome, you make the Music Groove, yet... you NEVER Overplay! As a bassist myself, I can really appreciate that. Keep up the Great work Rob!

I love this groove/beat - thanks so much for sharing it!! I play inverted paradiddles fairly naturally, so I love the feel of this groove. Thanks again!!

Love this! I’m going to get on this groove straight away! Thank you for sharing the free content as always, Rob. You are a legend! 🙏🏻

Rob you look and sound so comfortable applying that rudiment to Samba. Thank you for such a great lesson.

Once again, you've inspired me by demonstrating how to apply a rudiment in a very cool way. Thanks Rob!

Drums licks ( lessons) are so many. Your content i keep coming back to. Love what you bring to the tube.

LOL you're just like me, when I grow it out the wisdom shows. Another great lesson Mr beat down. 30 years of being a self-taught drummer it's been fun reinventing my drumming using your instruction. I've never owned a practice pad until I started watching your videos and what a difference it's made.

I love you tutorial man. You made it easy for me to learn this diddle through your video. Keep up the great work!

Thanks for showing this groove. Special thanks for doing it in the open-handed position.

Smoooooooth playing Rob!. Love the instruction and the actual playing. I learned so much. This is now in bag of playing chops. Thank you!

Dr. Gadd is a drum genius. Thanks for sharing as always. I dig all of ur lessons. Ur one cool brother drummer man.

Big things with little ideas. Rob, your feel is incredible!

My favourite rudiment. Great application - thankyou so much for this.

I agree with these older gentlemen. You be connecting the dots Rob!

I love your videos man. I’m a total metal dude, but I’m definitely incorporating these grooves into my playing. Far more interesting to me than straight forward metal drumming. Blast beats are sick, but so is laying down a thick ass funky groove. My Gemini mind thinks it can do two things at once hahaha

This is s pretty slick groove Rob. So simple, yet sounds really great. A most enjoyable little idea indeed.

Steve Gadd is definitely in a league of his own, when it comes to drumming. I saw him perform live with James Taylor, in Edmonton, in 2016. Thanks for sharing this. Cheers, Rob! ✌️🥁

Steve Gadd is definitely somebody to watch!!...and listen to!!....I think Rob Brown depicted that perfectly here!....Nice job Rob!!...I really enjoyed your music!!...."Carry On With the Great Groove.....and always groove responsible" -- Michael Haring

you keep me not to stop practicing with home made drum.. I will buy one and show my skill to everyone 👌🤜🤛

Hi Rob, I'm a drum enthusiast and I'm French. I live in Paris you know? You play this wonderful instrument so well like many others but you have a lot of humor I think when we see you in this video at 10:53 🙃😂👍🏾👍

yes, pretty cool. thanks for this lesson, been looking for an easy way to learn this beat and found it. love it been practicing it.

Simple, relaxed, and awesome!

I enjoyed this video. Thank you Mr Brown!

Just wanted to say we played the same way. My father plays still today and I plan for us to record this year for the first time a family jam.

Been a subscriber to your channel for a couple years Rob. I've picked up a lot of excellent tips and lessons along the way . I dig this groove , and I did get the Gadaments book for Christmas 🎄 from my girlfriend . Haven't gotten very far in it , but the pages I have had the time to practice have paid dividends in a short Month . Thanks for work you put into the drumming community and passion towards drumming which inspires many , including myself Rob 😎✌️

I love your drumming. Very groovy and dynamic. ThanX!!!

Great application of a rudiment and example

That was so so great Rob. Loved that you played it open handed which makes the first note on the snare and not the hats. Fantastic performance man. I loved it. Great lesson.

@LeFloidfan4ever

I might be missing something but I thought by playing open handed the first note in the groove is on the hats. Like LrrlRllr (lefts on hats and rights on snare)

Thanks! Much appreciated Rob! I needed a fresh latin idea. Can’t wait to throw in the mix on the next gig. 👊🏻😎

TY RB !!!

This is Steve’s main groove imo. There’s a track called no more blues which has some interesting variations of this. Great vid rob!

thank you for sharing this!

Like always ... Perfect! Thx for sharing 🙃🙂😃😉👍👏

That is super cool ! Thanks !!

Very good flow mr...very smooth time and nice relaxed. you're getting better and better

For variety, I throw in a LRRL RRLR every now and then. Thanks, Rob. 🙏

Wow...Fantastic...You are good my friend!!! Thanks for sharing...GOD Bless!!!

Cool lesson! I like that warm rhythms!

Excellent. Thanks for this! I'll definitely try this out.

You are a Beast SIR! Thank you so much for all of your content!!!!!!

Awesome tutorial 🥁🔥🥁👏💎👏

Tasty groove right there.

Muito bom!!! Sou brasileiro e gostei desse groove de samba.

Awesome, tasteful, nuanced!

That Samba has such a compelling coreasque gaddlike groove!

Now I like that GROOVE ROB!🎶

Hello, Mr. Rob from California! Love your grooving Sir!

That was great, Rob!

Great Lesson. Thank You, Brother!

Had a right jam along to this dude. Awesome😎

Spectacular lesson, Rob !

Love it Rob great vid!

Very smooth

Nice groove,love your drumming. Myself been playing years but need to get more groove in my playing.been in a swing style for so long.

Welp here is my daily inspiration for the day. Thanks as usual Mr Rob!

Gee,Rob...You got me on the grove and made me wanting to run to my kit and start playing...I need to join your clases...!!!

Smooth as oiled glass.......respect.

Rob you are a badass and a favorite educator of mine. And yes I will be trying this groove

Awesome feel Rob ... Love it

Smooth played Rob, thnx

I'm another aging, self taught rock n pop drummer transitioning to more jazz. Your video inspired me to get back to fundamentals to apply practicing and gigging. Thanks so much. BTW would you post a layout of the cymbals you have in this video? They beautifully complement you smooth strong grooves. Thanks so much.

Thank you!

Great thanks Rob👍 Going to get on this groovy train....Next stop Awesome city👌🥁☠️

Nice groove. I bet with a little salsa cowbell action that groove really blossoms.

Hi Rob !! Thanks a lot for your videos!!!!!

What a brilliant lesson, superb

Very nice playing!! Placing the accent on the last left note also sounds great.. rllrlrrL

Sweet!

YESSSSS!!!! Time to practice this. Thank you Rob! Your playing is SO tasty!

I think you finally proved yourself to be one of the greats! 😂 Jus' kiddin' 👊 Beatdown that was beautiful playing!

Awesome smooth groove...enjoyed that

That Samba tune was pretty good. I'll take you up on that free 30 day drumeo offer. Just got my kit. Want to play like Copeland & you're the dude with the most Copeland material.

You're DEFINITELY my favorite drum teacher on the 'net! Off topic though: NO traditional grip?! I'm a matched grip guy, but was shocked that you weren't playing traditional! Lastly...what are those mics you're using on the toms & snare? Thanks for being there for us!

Another great lesson👍🏻

Clean.

Thank you my Brother, I’m going to work on this! Thank You!

Really nice, simple as well. Great to see the common sense thing's we can practice, obviously para diddles and their permeatations are a must to get to grips with. Like you showed here, play a samba style foot pattern underneath that and you have something that moves and sounds really good! Great for confidence building. You're a good teacher Rob brown. 👏🙏
