Life is a Carnival - Levon Helm instructional drumming

[irok75]

He is the groove!

most under-rated drummer ever.....so simplistic, but super tight and a style that has been copied by many but never truly duplicated.

@iangcunningham I don't think he's that underrated! Rock players know he's the fuckin man ;)

his drumming is so sensational. the feel i think they always aimed for was something that makes you bob your shoulders and your back. his drumming has that feel, and such a dampened earthy tone. richard does that with his shoulders while playing, he feels it, robbies guitar does the same. and then rick, his bass makes you feel that way, and look at what he does on stage- bobs up down left right

been trying to get this video. unfortunately the video and levon's book "this wheel's on fire" isn't being sold anymore. and the likely hood that "ain't in it for my health" will show here(philippines)has less of a chance than a turkey on thanksgiving.

So thank you for posting this. Levon is an infectiously, musical inspiration. Beautiful soul. Beautiful drummer.

I have both the book and VHS. I am pretty sure that Hudson Music has the instructional tape now on DVD.
