Yorkshire Ripper on drums.

[TheMoonchild1969]

By the way I love this video, Steve Gadd grooving and all that. I am still trying to use some of his foot work on my drumming, never easy to accomplish. Neat stuff. Sorry, I am still saddened by my friend and his long gone afro. Pity that afro styling has not make a come back, that pretty much could help the economy, you know a boom on sales in shampoos, conditioners and fork combs.

[TheMoonchild1969]

I once had a friend who‘s afro was perfectly spherical, a true art form. Keeping his afro was his only purpose in life back on those days. He used to buy specially formulated shampoos and conditioners (among other products) solely to keep his afro looking fresh and round. He spent precious time of his youth in front of a mirror combing, trimming and purging his afro (instead of playing the ball game), a very disturbing sight indeed. All in vain, he went totally bald at 26.

[stinguy30]

STEVE GOD!!!

[RayBlancoVideo]

2:27.... Gadd is having an orgasm on stage..... or at least thats about where i did...... feckkkkkking sexxxxxy groove.

I love this! No one is pretty and all the gear is off-the-rack! Nothing but great playing!

[Mishkin79]

6 people like Justin Bieber

[leokasper7107]

I don't blame the bassist for moving all over the place. Frankly, one of the hardest things you can do while playing bass is not move.

[blohmymind]

At 2.05 a message comes down thru his afro "more cowbell"

[MrMegaman2000]

Shaft on the bass is the coolest of them all.

[questionablesight]

[bourgkul]

[The4thGuy]

COWBELL!!!!

[leogorla]

2:26 ME GUSTA

[71rubies]

Gadd seems to have played more heavy back then than in the nineties.

[jeffc6676]

@71rubies he was coked out of his mind during those days. I heard some people say he was a bit more "intense" while he was on it. he's back on the wagon though.

[pretorious700]

The only band cool enough to get away with wearing (their own) band t shirts on stage

[SkuddMudd]

how can anyone dislike this ?

[JazzInATinCan]

Adult Token fro South Park on bass. What Cartman told him changed his life.

[XXtremeDrummer]

SFACCIMM E DINAMICA!

[nudist0885]

On the recording from 1981 in Rochester, Syracuse, Schenectady, (somewhere in that part of NY) they play the song again with about 25 musicians. Halfway through the song Steve Gadd does a solo that's in 3/4 time and though the left hand is playing a syncopated rhythm throughout the first 25 seconds, the right hand is on the hi-hat on the beat every beat for 32 measures straight.

Talk about a fantastic groove. I only wish I could find the LP now. I know I have it. I just can't find it.

[nudist0885]

I have an album done by Chuck Mangione. It was recorded in Rochester NY? in 1981 to raise money for people in Italy who had suffered from an earthquake. There were 3 guest musicians on it; Dizzy Gillespie, Chick Corea, and Steve Gadd.

Steve and Chuck had gone to the Eastman School of Music together in the late 60's and Chuck wrote a piece of music for Steve's recital in 1968.

It's called "The 11th Commandment".

[mrthundaboots]

Hmmm...silver dot heads? I might just go retro. silver dots on DW's!!

[mother66]

Gadd's fro could kick Sib Hasian's fro's ass!

[ReubenAdkins]

Amazing as always...........Mr. Gadd!

[CookieDee11]

O GADD!

[Makksor]

[MicNeanderthal]

devo bere oltre che incendiare la batteria!!

[alisonmlb]

simple drum sets but sounds so variety!

[sheveshka]

The tone is in the afro. Its not the drums. Its the afro.

[giggie]

@sheveshka agreed , it is in the fro ...

[KurtRileyOfficial]

@sheveshka How do you explain the bald bassist?

[gratzr]

I am so happy I saw this band live. Life-long memory! I love these guys.

[stixflix06]

I've seen alot of shit on youtube. But this is probably one of the best things i've ever seen. Favourited.

[djmdkdbo1]

second stuff .... hmm. how about the '' the shit

[Saxement]

During the solo I was like: Damn this is epic, but somehow a little cowbell would make it even more epic. Then he started playing the cowbell...

damn.

[shufflethedrums24]

Gadd=awesome.

Gadd+funk=really awesome

Gadd+funk+fro= OMFG THAT'S AWESOME!!!

[uberpirox]

@fridun007 Cornell Dupree is wearing a vest......Eric Gale is the other guitarist......

[Luciano7930]

Amo quest'uomo, e credetemi mi piacciono le donne...

[83DrumProdigy]

I love the uptempo touch of "Mozambique "in the middle of his solo

[samm1809]

@83DrumProdigy it's not the mozambique. the mosambique is f-rlrrlrlrrlrrlr. this one is rrlrlrrlrlrrlrrl

[83DrumProdigy]

@samm1809 yea very true.... just when he plays it uptempo it reminds me of that....good ear....

[bucketdaweed]

[ironman77725]

'afro' gadd is my favourite gadd

[chrisyounce]

Yep Boy's and Girls there you go, no need for speed here or anything else to fuck it up, just rock solid groove that will stand the test of time forever. Love it.

[VitRadek]

Yeah, finally some COWBELL! :D

[jTg829]

Why must the song be cut off? :(

[ryanandbranslurppiss]

the bass players to cool to stand

[liennto]

I always come back to this vid when I need to cheer the f*ck up. such greatness. I need more Stuff!

[ryanandbranslurppiss]

@liennto i know man i do the same

[liennto]

2:26



[mrJimCharles]

Eric always has a look on his face like he just fucked up - but he never does!

[fneu0000]

FUCKKKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAA !!!!

i really was born to late.....

[tokarev445]

now THAT'S what I call a drum solo! I just love how he puts the groove first :)

[zerohouraustralia]

yep.. the bass player does own this video.. what cool cat

[DrummerRF]

i like the fact that there are only black people except from the drummer. See:) we can get along with eachother:)

[MazzaPercuzza]

there's james brown on keyboards!

[wowcaipora]

dude so deep you can't see the light

[redraven2682]

that is JJ Kale on guitar right. as in up jump the rabbit, Sara smile, et al.?

[zerohouraustralia]

@redraven2682 That's Eric Gale guitar right.. J J Cale is not anywhere on here

[redraven2682]

@zerohouraustralia Thanks. I don't know why but I wrote the names exactly opposite of what I meant. As you can see my reference to up jump the rabbit etc. from Eric's music. His guitar licks were so cool. everyone on here is awesome. Did you ever hear the album Tropea? with Steve G. Eric G may have also been on that album. I'm thinking it was produced in late 70's???

[zerohouraustralia]

@redraven2682 That Eric Gale on guitar right not JJ Cale.. since when is JJ Cale black?

[wellisaythat]

MOAARR COWBELLLL!! :-DDD

[kelsbannon]

i would be gay for steve gadd

[sloopymybass]

bass player really shows that the groove has just taken over his body

[VitRadek]

My fever is gone after I watched this video. It's the cowbell

[samm1809]

love the beaver face at 1:53

[randomstofil]

love the bass player

[hungaristan0]

Richard Tee + Steve Gadd = The Funkiest Rhythm Section Ever. Where was this thing extracted from? I want to have the whole gig!

[Buddythunder1]

Does the man got feel? Yes he does!

[wyz101]

now this is music!

[setmanx7]

5 people haven't been on that  "Stuff"

[InHumanForm555]

Wow its to bad Steve Gadd doesnt play with dynamics at all huh!not

[yairsuperdrum]

where can i found a download for this song?

[dunskie]

I remember when Joe Cocker used Stuff as his band on Saturday Night Live when Belushi came out and sang Feelin Alright with Joe.

[juuttuuppi]

nsimjazz: "The band is called Stuff. This edition is Cornell Dupree (Telecaster) and Eric Gale (Gibson Hollowbody) on guitar, Gordon Edwards on Bass, Richard T on keyboards and of course Steve gadd on drums. Billy Preston sometimes played with them as well as Ronnie Cuber on sax." (copied from earlier page)

[grooveroid]

When it's time for THIS drummer to solo, you pay attention unless you are a twat. Who is the bass player?

[BullToTheShit]

When that drummer starts soloing, that's the time to go use the bathroom or grab a bite.

[12groney]

Syncopation!

[gangtwanger]

God, I love this. Gadd's got such a smooth drum-tone (and that's coming from his hands, not the drums).

[ELGORITHM]

Good music

[TheViciao]

This should be First stuff live, as the bassist is wearing a second shirt..

[afxmnstr]

With this hair he could be in the mars volta!

[liennto]

bass player still owns this video

[mrJimCharles]

@liennto I'd say they're all co-owners

[liennto]

@mrJimCharles haha yes indeed. true talk.

[blueforyou2]

@liennto I have to agree. The bass is often taken for granted at times but, without it, you cant' pull a song together.

[gangtwanger]

I can't help but think that Stuff must have done a few porno-movie soundtracks in their day. It's a shame too because these guys were the cream of the studio-player crop - The music deserves better than to be the audio-backdrop for some "Gaga Gets Gooey" sort of movie.

[samm1809]

@gangtwanger bahahaaha! that comment was classic! you got angry about something you made up. reminds me of karl pilkington.

[gangtwanger]

I have a Stuff LP from back around '80, I think. A live gig in NYC. It's pristine too. 1st pressing (I have to wonder how many pressings there even was - I can't imagine it was in-print that long). LOVE Steve Gadd. He's a perfect technician, but at the same time he's got that signature-sound you hear from guys like Ringo Starr and Stevie Wonder (as a drummer OR a harmonica-player).

[yeti30312]

guitar players are all ego manaics!! LOOK AT ME..LOOK AT ME!!!!

[DrumsaremyhobbyxD]

watch out! Its che guevara playing =)

[kewlfonz]

@thecravenator42069 What? Beat?

[wintercame12]

1:09 guitarist is doesn't look to happy about the upcoming solo. lol

[Habbipaloosa]

1:10 a young samuel l jackson anyone? great song btw!

[MDrummer7]

All the souls are black..... one just happens to have white skin

[liennto]

@MDrummer7 ha i was thinkin the same thing

[D0NRICKLES]

1:08 Rondell Sheridan

[D0NRICKLES]

Is that a young Reverend Sharpton in the background? 3:03

[D0NRICKLES]

Rondell Sheridan seems annoyed by drum solos

[emblem1980]

i dont like the expresion face of the guitarist when steve go to solo.....check 1:10 he's a stupid musician

[Tommybotham]

@emblem1980

He has the same expression in the last video, maybe hes having an off day? Every other musician was happy except for him.

[jindodied]

@emblem1980 If you watch the whole dvd, that guitar player has an expressionless/disgusted face the entire concert, even during his own solos. In a weird way, its kind of badass

[residentdrummerpete]

my fave gad solo. steve just smokes this!! plus great hair

[thefroh1]

Steve Gadd- the inventor of the Disco Beat.

[murdok620]

this band and steve gadd are inspirational to play with feel over technique yeah!!

[samm1809]

what's so interesting about gadd's solos is that most of the time it's always the same stuff, but the feel is always the feel of the song, so it doesn't seem like it.

[marktrain77]

groovy

[murdok620]

this is one of the best grooves ive ever heard man

[Gibbulf]

Now, THIS IS WHAT I CALL GROOVE!

[dadrumfiend]

great solo.

[Mccritical80]

[tamistamistamis]

WOW !

the rising starting at 2:30 till the end is beautiful. I love the drum riff with he cowbell but I also like the piano. It reminds me of a Supertramp song; Another Man's Woman where there's also a great rising motion.

[RainbowLogic]
