Loyola Academy Jazz Band Blues Brothers Review 2008

[xiondepter]

the drumer SUCKS! he does not know how to play the right patterns on this song,

[NicoleNFDL21]

Drumer needs to tone it dooooown. Couldn't hear the solo at all. :/

[green2009day]

That drummer is an amazing drummer in his own right as you can see near the beginning of the sig put it's just not right for jazz band u can't heat anything but him and he plays loudly through the solos

[fenn69]

Oh, I KNOW you did NOT just play "Everybody Needs Somebody" straight. That's just wrong. As one well know jazz composer put it, "It don't mean a thing if it 'aint got that swing."

[Garythedrummerboy]

Dude, whoever the drummer is needs some lessons of phrasing, espicially during Soulman. The cowbell player towards the end, seems to take over a good portation of the feel, and actually tries to urge the rhythm section a rally to try and recover the song, but the drummer doesnt respond, OR LISTEN. Bro, get your head up, chill on the crazy 16/sixtuplet fills, and listen to your group. What makes a good drummer is not what he can do in a song, but what he decides NOT to do.

i love the cowbell player at 3:00

[properbeatz]

...... Jazz?

Loyola?

What is this?

[mikedl622]

needed to be way slower. Whats with the drummer yall, seriously. Were playing this for slidell highs centenial celebration lets have a blues brothers brawl!

[guitardude2634]

i feel like the openeing tempo, for the sake of being able to hit the notes could be like 10-20 beats slower.

also the trumpets sound like they needed some work....but other than that good job.

[BlackSheepWall107]

Bring Back Philip J. Donley... One of the best band directors the school has ever had.

[thesymphoniclife]

Donley was awesome. I am an 04 grad and he totally was the most fun and understanding band director ever. Drum line totally rocked under his lead. Thank you for a great experience. Bartosz was ok too, but he had a broom stick up his ass.

[jordanandwade]

and i think this is jazz? yeah. the drummer plays it like a heavy metal song.

[Boulderboy203]

thats funny cause james, the drumer despises heavy metal

[jordanandwade]

i could come play guitar for you. i have the piece memorized.

[gearsofwar0wns]

Go LA
