[Jared1032]

I Seriously think that you can learn the drums from somebody off youtube than you can if you went and took it from someone in person, awesome by the way

[R1de666]

Grosse danke!!!

[snapcase72]

well explained! thanx!

[addelins]

Dear Jared , can i ask who is your influence ? And what genre of music do you really love to play ?

[TimOhYeah]

Bad ass haircut

[Drumboy5165]

Wow,I have to say that your respect and admiration for Jeff Porcaro is truly amazing! To be honest, most younger guys don't have a clue who he was or how amazing he was as a drummer! Anyhow, good lessons. I appreciate what you teach and how you do it....I'll keep learning!!

[glapau23]

Also, now that you've broken this shuffle to pieces for us to learn, could you also do the drum cover for the song?.

[glapau23]

thanks for taking the time in explaining this shuffle which is something I've always wanted to learn..Happy Holidays to you and the staff of freedrumlessons...

[glapau23]

oh...I also read your shirt...ROFL

[yourmum101ful]

@glapau23 ..... its MERRY CHRISTMAS ...

[gazpants]

Nice T Shirt by the way!!! ;)

[MikeWengrenJr]

Jared siento como si tú fueras mi único profesor, muchas gracias, desde ahora la forma en la que toque batería va a ser gracias a Mike Wengren y a ti .

[hungwell90]

hi jared jeff said he is using a 16 note pattern on the hi hat when u using 8 th note triplet

[IronDrummer086]

Hey Jared, someday you posted on facebook "which song would we like to play if we could know to read note absolutely perfect" and I posted rosanna, and in that moment I didnt even thought that you will post drum lesson for rosanna shuffle. So, thank you very very much. This really helped me a lot, I watched Jeff Porcaro lesson but it didnt helped me a lot. And btw. toto is one of my favourite bands. Do more lessons of toto songs :) Simon Phillips is my biggest influence. Best drummer ever. Bye

[exitoftheend]

i have 14inch medium alpha high hats and a 22in heavy dh exo stagg ride. what do any of you guys think i should get for as crashes. i love paiste but am open up to other companies if the cymbal turns out to be amazing. I play Metal, punk, ska and some old school rock like Hendrix. Also staggs IMO are the best first cymbals for anyone. Just through it out there lol.

[edwardheintjie]

thanks a lot!

[sukablianah2]

Это круче ебашилова, потому-что уроки игры тут занимают более 2% от всего видео

[RogueKovu]

I envy your kit. It grows on its own. Every new video there are more cymbals. I wish my kit did that. Oh.. by the way. If you ever find that your kit is missing, its because I stole it. Kthanks.

Great tutorial by the way. Tried learning it, but I am not coordinated enough to pull it off lol. Gotta practice more haha

[plemyk]

The Purdee shuffle meets John Bonham triplets!!!

[blueburnsred]

I think it's important to note that on the hi-hat rhythm played, it's best to accent the down beat more than the "let" note. If you do this, the groove will not sound as overplayed as it would otherwise. Just something to think about.

[hungwell90]

jared the bass drum is playing a bo diddle

[RoseMadderCarlito]

@freedrumlesson ...hey jared :) you are the best drummer-teacher in youtube in my opinion ....hey ...can you launch a video lesson where you explain the "amen break" thank you jared

Carlo Pisciotta.

[DoctorWa]

Hey Jared, on a side note: I just wanted to mention I think u look better with the short hair...makes you look tougher and/or more serious or something lol. =D

[s2ry0fdyr]

best tutorial ever..

[Prieget]

thats alot of cymbals...



[herbandsarah]

i believe this is also the "Purdie Shuffle" but im practicing this now and im just to the point where i can play the whole thingand make it sound good but its slow still with no feel

[dgarreis]

I had to go back and read the shirt. I think the shirt is cool. Very hard song to show and play Jared. Great job! It was also great to hear you have played this for some time and still try to get it better! It shows we are not alone when playing drums!

[InfliktionDrums]

who is charge of editing the videos of this channel? he does a great job, i'd love to learn a thing or two from him. great job teahing the lesson btw, you should do a songo lesson, im sure everyone here would love that groove

[freedrumlessons]

@InfliktionDrums I have two editors that put these together. Kyle and Victor. They do a great job. I have written a Songo lesson and just have to get into the studio to film it. It'll come soon...

[kashter]

Thanks man, another great lesson. Keep them coming!

[SERCHSOS3722]

I STILL LIKE TURTLES.

[drummersabu]

AWESOME LESSON I REALLY LIKED it

thanks dude

[2112jamac]

not that this guy is a bad drummer. he's very good. but he's teaching this wrong. your playing a triplet between the hats and snare ghost noting and accenting on the up beat. john bonham used this on fool in the rain. picaro used it on rosanna. but bernard started it on home at last by steely dan. the only thing different about it is the bass drum part. kris myers (drummer for Umphreys Mcgee) used it on Mulche'sOdyssey.

[freedrumlessons]

@2112jamac I transcribed this groove from the recording of the song Rosanna. I will re-check it later, but I am 99.99% sure that this is the correct way to play it...

[eeddddddyy]

Thumb up if you read his t-shirt!

[2112jamac]

this shuffle was not written by jeff pacaro. it was written by bernard purdie and is called the purdie shuffle. if pacaro was alive today he would tell you that.

[DrumTrainingSH]

@2112jamac Thats kind of true, but actually this groove was done by Jeff Porcaro. He fused the Bernard Purdie shuffle, the John Bonham "Fool in the Rain" shuffle and a shuffle bo-diddly figure on the bass drum. This drum groove was all Jeff Porcaro.

[2112jamac]

@DrumTrainingSH go to Porcaro's page on drummerworld and you'll see what i mean. i know what your doing is Porcaro. but he calls it the Purdie shuffle with that bo-diddly figure on the bass drum.

[freedrumlessons]

@2112jamac Ok... I learned it from Jeff Porcaro, so for me, it's the Porcaro shuffle :) For some reason everyone on Youtube gets hung up on semantics all the time. We all need to understand that there are sometimes MANY different names for the same thing. Just saying'...

[GabeRiseAndFall]

Jared. Check out jimmydrum92. he covered Rosanna. i think you'd really like it

[freedrumlessons]

@GabeRiseAndFall Nice, I already have and though it was awesome.

[chessdude67]

Can't afford anymore cymbals, lol!

Great video.

Tim 

[lesterdude999]

I READ YOUR SHIRT!... =.=

nice lesson btw

[Gunbardo]

Wow, u changed the metronome! Great job, tired of the old tok tok tok tok tok tok tok tok.... Lol~

[freedrumlessons]

@Gunbardo Playing along to straight quarter notes was very challenging due to all the space. Having the triplets in there helps a lot.

- Jared Falk

[theman82]

I think the key on getting the right feel for this beat is the ghosting of the snare, and especially lagging it slightly. And by that I mean playing the notes a little bit later than you´re supposed to.

Dynamics is also important, playing the notes in between the 1 and the 3 very quietly, perhaps put an emphasis on the kick notes (except the last one).

Drive and energy is very important, but I´m not sure how to explain that.

[freedrumlessons]

@theman82 Great tips...thanks for sharing!

[1988Geo1]

You are a great teacher Jared

[commanderjohnscott]

I always believe one day Jared will show us he knows we care the message he is wearing. By the way, thanks for teaching me what drummers do and what they think. I'm not a drummer so these video really teach me a lot.

[75353866]

13 cymbals....can I borrow some xD

[PrimalRhythm]

Why was the late great Jeff Porcaro so brilliant? Unfair! But super great job breaking it down for us. I am adding this to my play-lists for later review.

[freedrumlessons]

@PrimalRhythm Listen to his drumming, that will answer your question.

[Rushfan551]

Needs more cowbell :D

[FireflyIII]

U need more cymbals...

[xXQcAresiusQcXx]

You've got a few more cymbals since last time! but great video as always! :D

[BertisWorldYT]

the purdie shuffle by bernard purdie was the first of these shuffles to my knowledge.

[90helgi]

One of my favourite grooves of all time aswell. For me the hardest part about playing this track is actually the chorus part, the base drum pattern always messed up the shuffle and I haven't been able to get it right for like 4 years, since I started playing this song.

[SATSCHOCKlovesNOFX]

you got a haircut

[Torombolo3k]

hahaha Jared looks like Eminem!

[freedrumlessons]

@Torombolo3k My palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy, there's vomit on my sweater already, mom's spaghetti, I'm nervous, but on the surface I look calm and ready, to drop bombs, but I keep on forgetting, what I wrote down the whole crowd goes sound loud, he opens his mouth but the words won't come out, he's choking now, everybody's joking now.... :)

[MRThunderBird12345]

someone is reading me shirt haha :-D

[RoflRaccoon]

Transcribe audio at 7:45... What .-.

[TheRudyStrong]

are u using the hd dry snair head because i have that one and it doesnt resemble your snair soud a bit

[freedrumlessons]

@TheRudyStrong More then just the head play a factor in the sound. You also have to consider the snare wires, the shell type, reso head, number of lugs etc.

- Jared Falk

[Catmangamer]

Finally! Jeez! xD

[sullydude24]

I'm 47, Porcaro was a favorite. Roseanna is my all time favorite groove that I'll never ever be able to play. LOL!

[andy5drum]

exactly.

[TheThecrazyone]

I'm one of those someones reading your shirt!

and awesome drumming Jared! You made me fall in love with the Rosanna shuffle after I watched one of your previous lessons on shuffles (if I'm not wrong), and I've become a big big big fan of it! Plus it's nice to be introduced to awesome music through your videos!

[freedrumlessons]

@TheThecrazyone Thank you for your kind words!

- Jared Falk

[MrRenniemihaka]

thanks man ive been having troubles with this groove for a week...i listen to jon bonham doing it and feel so shit haha

[nessmalone]

Jared Falk RULES!!!

[Ryxify]

someone is reading this comment.

[royalsfanatic]

Hey Jared....great vid. Quick question(s): When did you start? And when do you think it is too early to get simple drum set for a child (Im talkinmg the cheapie beginner target/Toys R Us type set)

I have a two year old son, loves watching your videos and then hammers on his set of shoe boxes and lids.

[freedrumlessons]

@royalsfanatic I only started to play drums when I was 15... I played a little piano before that. It's never too early to start. Don't expect them to take it too seriously and don't push them to practice or they might end up hating it...If they are meant to be a drummer it will happen. I have an 11 month old son and can't wait to get him a kit (if he's interested). I'll start him as young as possible. - Jared Falk

[porche3r]

@freedrumlessons you have a SON congrats man!!

[jggrskate94]

@freedrumlessons Your son will get into drums, he has got the best teacher in the world on his own house!

[steinable]

a friend of mine told me i should learn this, a week later my drum teacher started about it, and now this video. i must learn and master it now!

[freedrumlessons]

@steinable It's a sign!

[picwent]

Love your drumming!

[xNiells]

I guess someone is reading your shirt Jared :P
