@cottonbuds2005 hey bro do you play drums? If not you'll never know the answer to your question. check Gadd out on some Steely Dan stuff like AJA or just you tube him.
Steve Gadd, Alex Acuna, and Nathan East. Thats one heck of a rhythm section!!! The only thing that would make it better is if they were backing Michael McDonald. Oh wait... :)
This song never gets old. I noticed that nobody mentioned David Pack of Ambrosia on guitar in the background. That must have been quite a performance to be at.
yeah listen too the drum parts he comes up with for paul simon steely dans title track to aja his all out groove and interesting use of rudiments as applied to the drum set
'can you tell me what isn't so special about steve gadd?
@cottonbuds2005 Steve Gadd is renowned as one of the most creative, talented, solid drummers alive. He is sought after by A-list talent because of his VERY solid groove. He has a pocket you can drive a truck through.
@cottonbuds2005 he plays slightly behind the beat. It makes for an anticipation of the drop. I love when drummers do that; they don't dictate the tempo, they enhance it.
@cottonbuds2005 Best Right Foot in Drumming. His Kick is so thick and full toned, it hits you right in the middle of the chest like a big soft pillow and your heart starts beatin' in time with it. He is so in the pocket, he is the packet. He is so solid in everything he does that he draws attention to the music, not to just himself.
That is why. It's an art form many musicians excel at. I call it Soul.
LA's #1 groove meister. a session maestro of impeccable time & taste...been around 4ever.....from Mangione to Clarke, Jim Hall, Simon, Aretha, You name 'em, he's played/recorded with 'em!
God, where did all the good talent go! There's just no amazing singers like James Ingram and Michael McDonald anymore :-( These guys both sound absolutely fantastic, what a fab duet!!!
haha, Steve Gadd again on drums. Gadd is probably the most used drummer on the planet for ANY style of music. Plays with Chick Corea on Friday night and then with Michael McDonald on Saturday. And for good reason. Nathan East is showing up everywhere too. Very proud for these guys. Great Cats for any music.
i came here because of the 40 year old virgin, watch that movie EFFIN HILARIOUS
