[staninLE]

great to watch sting playing drums back in the old days :-)

[benjaminschalit]

i played it with him and he gave me his chart. its written in 15/8

[Ldhead]

ari's amazing!!!!!

[bcss45]

It could be 15/8 with one bar of 4/4 and one bar 7/8. Dave Liebman has composed a tune in the same time signature called "New Mambo".

[ClarkKasheta]

@bcss45 That's how I feel it

[rhythmjunky80]

You might see it on a chart as 15/16 as well.

[rillloudmother]

how is ari so damn funky?

[SheriffAriff]

damn!

[luxlathor]

That drummer is Wack!!!

[MDRcd5]

Video cut at 9:59 ?

[fuzzyfeet]

the amazing thing about potter is that no matter what time signature he's playing in he makes it feel so comfortable. if you're not paying attention you almost don't realize he's not in four. this is incredible

8:03 TRANE

[needtherapy2010]

Thumbs up for MATCH GRIP!

[IchMagSechs]

@needtherapy2010 TRADITIONAL.! hahahahahahahah

[pebblefrog196]

The time is in 15/8. Or 7.5/8 time if it's too tricky.

[zoels]

@pebblefrog196

I'd just think of it as a bar of 4/4 then a bar of 7/8

[gjbsaxman94]

@zoels three bars of 4/4 and one of 3/4

[Racerdew]

@gjbsaxman94 nah man it's a two bar phrase-4 and 7/8. you're counting it as if the 8th note was the quarter note. I suppose you could count it like that, but this is a common jazz format.

[zarkoasenov]

Ari Koenig seems out of focus a bit or maybe I'm just shitting

[HendrixcommaMartin]

I don't like the way that snare sounds. Maybe it's the recording. I do like the way these two cats sound though.

[jeronimoringo]

@HendrixcommaMartin of course its the recording ;)

[juliencoriatt]

4/4 + 7/8

[qualityfreshness]

@swan4163 It's straight eighth man.

[SareenaRodgers]

@qualityfreshness actually its not, i learned that song on drums from my college music professor.

[mosilflutil10]

reminds me of keith carlock

[swan4163]

Ari is great. Chris Potter doesn't swing, though.

[joemadrum]

@swan4163 fuck you

[jputterman26]

@swan4163 With all due respect, you need to see a doctor about your hearing.

[SaxHero]

dig the Kenny Garrett quote a la "Wayne's Thang" at 7:57. Chris Potter works it out even though he doesn't sound quite as nice on his Mark VI as he does on his Super Action.

[odizouu]

@SaxHero Its not Wayne's Thang it is Jean Pierre (by Miles Davis) also played by Kenny ;)

[SaxHero]

@odizouu Yeah, I wasn't saying that he was quoting Wayne's Thang itself. I recognized that lick from a particular solo of Kenny Garrett on Wayne's Thang. I guess I can see why you were confused, though. Thanks for the info just the same.

[VernWellington]

@SaxHero I believe he quotes Miles Davis' Jean Pierre there.

[Jordainio]

Awesome! Hah ari's a funny cat..

[homebirthed]

2 of my favourite players, ever.
