JOE MORELLO est pour moi un des plus grands batteur de tous les temps! il a été un des premiers à installer un groove continu en boucle et surtout en JAZZ!!! un RYTHME qui tourne en boucle ! les autres batteurs de l'époque jouant plutôt des variations grosse caisse/caisse claire .Il a une finesse de jeu ,et une technique de caisse claire montrant qu'il à travaillé la méthode "STICK CONTROL de GEORGE LAURENCE STONE" JOE à écris une suite à cette méthode avec des accents.DIDIER D'AGOSTINO
@MisterOjeteMoreno I'll try to use smaller words since you can't seem to understand, but saying if you agree, is not begging. You should start reading things called books, I suggest you start with Everybody Poops, sounds like it's just right for your comprehension level.
With great zingers like that, I can see why you call me the kid. I also took a look at your channel. You actually refer to yourself as H4ck3rM4n? Wow that's super serious stuff. I fear your alleged MSN hacking skills. Way to give your channel the whole Matrix look incase anyone doubted your hacking skills. Keep it up skip, we're all impressed. By the way, that's not "hacking" Kids like you who think that's hacking need to dive head first into an empty pool.
This embodies everything I feel about the art of drumming. If you cannot make incredible music out of 4 drums and a couple cymbals, you have no business adding a million drums to your kit (I am talking to you Neil Peart,Mike Portnoy, etc.)
I think Joe Morello was closer to Max Roach's approach to the kit,playing solos that were melodic and swinging at the same time. On the other hand,Morello was acclaimed by true good music lovers ,because of his affiliation with Brubeck. Let's be honest now. The Dave Brubeck Quartet would have never been as successful WITHOUT Joe Morello,as they were WITH him. Unofficially,it was really The Joe Morello Quartet as far as I was concerned!
best drummer ever.... Krupa was flashy... Rich was loud... as far as technique and sheer artistry goes, this guy was the master. He did more with less.. a true musician.. not just a drummer
@flutopia3477 Perfectly expressed, sir! My Dad was a Brubeck fan and when I wanted to become a drummer, my Dad played Brubeck for me to instruct me in the "real deal." I was always grateful to him for that.
@music4826 I must agree with you, saw Bonham live 16 times, what he did live was inhuman...nobody played like that, and he alway got the biggest round of applause at every Zep show they ever did...I"m sure sam can play just like him don't you, hahaaa, what a dummy...your right, spends his life here and seen nothing, Zep was the biggest band of all time and they disbanded because Bonham was irreplaceable..and I've never heard anyone say they could play as good as J.B, when;s he touring? Shmuck..
bonham is hot trash what has he done that 50 guys i can name cant do, in fact he took ideas from people like morello here and he his shit sounded worse, gadd took the 4 sticks idea from him and improved it, bonham stole the purdie shuffle for rain song , and he didnt improve it, bonham , was loud had a great foot, but his solos were WEAK, anyone who isnt a groupie for led zep or a legimate drummer can see that ,hell at least the wanna be metal drummers were fast when they solo.
Wow, half of the people on here who run their mouths about Bonham and other drummers being overrated garbage, if you made it half as far as any of them then maybe you might have a say. Otherwise you are just another ignorant running mouth on youtube that means absolutely nothing outside of this site. Maybe if you replaced all that bitching with some practice you might be a hair on one of their asses someday.
music we all do it , we all have confirmation bias, bonham was ina successful rock band he musta been good rite, u wanna look at that and justify or backwards rationalize it as him being great or god, hes average dude, you want me to replicate some of his work for you , what do you wanna hear on my crappy drumset rock n roll blackdog , moby dick, achilles , tell me , his shit is not hard its very MEDIOCRE, being ina good band doesnt mean yer good per se,
Seen Peart many times, same fucking solo every time, snooooze, great lyricist, good writer, so-so drummer, same now as 79,???. Anyone can learn that solo. Buddy Rich Memorial, watch Peart embarrass himself, he admitted it in the rag, can't swing, mediocre chops, Smitty Smith and Steve Smith obliterated him..in M.D, all he talked about (in 84) was Tommy Aldridge, mentioned him over 20 times as a much better drummer...he's a nice man, sad about his family, good band...watch a T.A. video, unreal
Damm son, John Bonham was 12 when Joe did this, and I know Bonham loved jazz and he could swing...if metal existed in 61, then Morello would have been crazier, but his drums (both with hands and sticks) are the closest I've ever heard to Bonhams.Really scary, and like John he plays from his wrists, no beat downs...any drummer with a trace a musician in him would find this solo lightyears ahead of it's time..Oh,unpopular opinion, 2most overated drummers of all time, Palmer and N.Peart..cont.
dude bonham is ovverated garbage, his beats are basic I can play all of them and probaly the fills note for note , with ease, peart plays odd times and polyrhythms well and has chops, he cant swing he plays the ride funny and when hits the snare it sounds like rockabilly or bossa nova he doesnt have or use that left hand for jazz and carl palmer is a beast too, honestly bonham is average same level as travis barker.
or nod like jazz or make u you cover yer mouth and rewind it back like morellos solos it doesnt it doesnt make my girlfriend a non funk fan go damn play that steve gadd 50 ways to leave your lover thing again, or make female go damn thatsound sexy like the intro to take 5 with just the drums, its is simply banging on shit and making fast noise and playin exercises patterns, no wonder you metal kids are all mad and worked up all the time and depressed , I would be too listening to that garbage.
you like fast noise not the blend of musicality and technique ,hell if you program a single stroke roll on fl studio or double bass 16ths notes and put it at 800 bpm it sounds like garbage , speed isnt everything id rather listen to gene krupa than tomas haake or joey jordison any day, metal on a whole just doesnt have the musicality as jazz funk etc, i dont mean in how technical or fast something is either, it doesnt make ya wanna dance like latin music or nod yer head like hip hop or funk
with the exception of peart who cant swing and all those guys are boring back fround noise, theres nothing interesting about them, i show people who dont listen to jazz or people who dont care for drums and they are like wow with morello ,look at where hes playin at the playboy mansion with girls im sure who werent into the jazz, i got punk friends who love this solo, i got hip hop friends who love this shit, who dont give a damn about jazz, none of the guys you posted have that same effect
I think people should refrain from comparing Joe and Buddy Rich; they play two different styles of music. Also, Joe needs more credit for his technical proficiency. It seems like many people misinterpret his feel as being all groove and no technicality, when in fact he has both feel and technical proficiency. This is why he's a master.
he's a drum god for 60s but today we have better drummers, mike portnoy, george kollias, or danny carey, or thomas haake, or gene hoglan, or even the motherfucker drummer from slipknot :D
@LloydyFckinB this is like the evolotion theory, drummers got better, everything gets better technically, ask to joe moello (he's one of my icons) he will say just like me...
@jefster1961 people like you must get out of youtube, i'm saying "theese drummers are better in technic" and you say "shut the fuck up go to your mom", chill out man... ok moella is much better than todays drumers but not all of them, some of todays drummers can play 3 songs at the same time, if you don't know that don't say childish things like "fuck you" or " go to your mum"...
note: i can't speek english well because i'm not english or american
@TheTwilightIsMyRobe George Kollias? Please tell me you're joking. You may as well go and say Joey Jordison... Thomas Haake is a similar style, just speed, blasting away with double bass pedals. There's not a great deal of technicality there, mostly speed. These guys look up to Joe Morello. Neil peart is amazing, but making a comparison across such different genres becomes pointless, as you should have understood. Do you play an instrument?
@justanambulance yeah, playing fast is a good thing, which old drummers don't have, i mean, neil peart or joe moello can't play that fast, but it doesn't mean they suck, and playing fast doen't mean it's technical, but really, kollias is fucking technical, and for haake, i think he must have 4 brains :S but it's sure, they can't play like moello or moello can't play like him, ok? there are more technical drummers that don't use speed, gavin harrison, danny carey... by the way i play guitar
@justanambulance haake doen't blast away with double bass pedal :D and i hate that joey jordison guy but he is extremely fast... and there is buddy rich, elvin jones etc... (I wrote that because of fucking 450 character rule)
@TheTwilightIsMyRobe those guys are shit compared to joe morello and i happen to be a maggot so shut the fuck up about shit you dont know about and go have your mommy wipe your nose for you
@albertw666 they are not only good at speed, tomas haake can play 3 songs at the same time :S yeah some bands lack feeling, for example dream theater, but most of them has soul, like porcupine tree, opeth, agalloch, anathema, even death... but i hate the metalcore bands, they play fast, and then singing like gays to be emotional, like bullet for my valentine...
@TheTwilightIsMyRobe yeah, I'm agree with your comment, the drummer from slipknot have something I still can't stand lol XD and maybe my english is bad too xD
Joe Morello, and guys like him, were so incredible and ground breaking that 50 years later their sound is unmatched. As diluted as the music business is, that itself is a remarkable effort. He is definately one of the greats.
You kidding ? Morello is one of the most underated druller of this period... he deserves to be as famous as max roach roy haynes etc... but nobody cares coz he did "commercial things" like take five with white west coast jazz band. Seriously his fuckin awesome, just the way he beats the ride when he is on groovin makes me cry !
I've seen MANY jackass comments on YT over the years, but for someone to say that Master Jazz Drummer Joe Morello was "supremely overrated" has to be the most absurd comment I've seen yet.
There are no words to describe the insanity of that statement ~
@MarkR1957 its funny......some ppl feel the need to say things like that coz they think it demonstrates their 'superior' knowledge.......the most hilarious part being when they dont realise how much of a dick they look in front of everyone........personally i found this to be the most listenable,interesting,groovy drum solo iv come across in a long while....with a technique to die for!!...really nice man...thanks for the post.
@MarkR1957 I'm a drummer and it took me many years to realize just how good was Joe Morello. Today the depth and breadth of his talent simply amazes me.
Disagree with you - Joe Morello is in own class, there is nothing to compare - both of them are superb masters, the top of the moutnain. All the difference is only in their heads )))
Thanks. I have lots of albums/cd's -- saw quartet in person many times -- never saw him do a Take 5 solo with hands. He DOES do a lot of hand work on amazing solo on Castillian Drums (Carnegie Hall concert), which I did have the opportunity to see him do in person... nearly 50 years ago!
hmmmm many say speed is not equal to technical ability but why do all these jazz drummers seem to have BOTH of those worlds in their hands? insane speeds (buddy rich, gene krupa, JOE MORELLO, etc. all excel at druming fast in some way, be it with the one hand roll (like buddy) or quick displays of speed (gene or joe) and technical complexity such as playing wih your hands, performing awsome sounding solos on 5/4 and ofcourse wearing glasses while doing so.
why do people keep comparing travis barker to these jazz drummers. different taste levels and style completely....in dynamic, drumming style and restraint.
why do people keep comparing travis barker to these jazz drummers. different taste levels and style completely....in dynamic, drumming style and restraint.
@ethankripke My appreciation for Joe's work has soared the past few years as I've spent more time listening, watching. I rate him #2 right behind Gene and ahead of Buddy. RIP, Joe - Thanks so much for your wonderful legacy of great drumming.
I can't say I'm familiar with Joe Morello's career; jazz was always something that real musicians played as opposed to my rock pig pedigree. When you think that Joe had amassed so much technique (not to mention his barehanded originality) with gear that really was crap you have to conclude that real genius doesn't rely on 'gear' but rather on dedication, passion and the relentless pursuit of your individual voice. It's wonderful to think we have such an awesome archive of voices.
Must have been quite time to live in, where your picked up your gal in your art deco car, smoked a joint and proceded to see the dave brubeck quartet.
This is a great example of how to build a solo on a theme, give the audience a skeleton framework preview, then slowly build the complexity and energy, and leave no listener behind.
@egyptianminor He's an over rated drummer from a shitty pop punk band who can't play solo without a backing track or gimmick like his kit spinning around on stage.
@marcusfedgus Good call, brings back some good memories, bet that comment makes nearly every drummer smile, it's probably the only thing i have in common with the great Joe Morello, unfortunately !
insane look at his left foot on auto pilot and he can just do whatever he wants with his other appendages, absolutely amazing, love the start without sticks too... alright lets put the travis barker comments to rest, the one good drummer that actually listened to blink noticed he was actually pretty good and now all these other people that don't know what they're talking about are suddenly, YEAH HE IS GOOD WAIT NO HE'S THE BEST, TRAVIS BARKER IS THE THE THE BEST DRUMMER, hes good but come on...
anyone that brought up travis barker after they watched this video should step away from the screen and go fucking drown yourself for having a pathetic taste in music.. my mind feels like it just took a crap after i saw these comments....
I think percussion history and appreciation should be a required course in schools all around the nation because every time I watch a drum solo on youtube, someone is trying to argue that Travis Barker is the greatest drummer of all time.
@TheAlexBasso anyone that brought up travis barker after they watched this video should step away from the screen and go fucking drown yourself for having a pathetic taste in music.. my mind feels like it just took a crap after i saw these comments....

@jefster1961 people like you must get out of youtube, i'm saying "theese drummers are better in technic" and you say "shut the fuck up go to your mom", chill out man... ok moella is much better than todays drumers but not all of them, some of todays drummers can play 3 songs at the same time, if you don't know that don't say childish things like "fuck you" or " go to your mum"...

@justanambulance watch?v=XagspfIdhqk this guy is waaay tooo faster and technical but i don't think he can play jazz perfect,
watch?v=Ap7Z5S6yTZM this guy is a twin pedal maniac, he can play 2 3 songs same time
watch?v=GHkucr1jJpQ&feature=related this guy is neil peart :D
is this enough, but i dont think there is a better drummer from 60s then moello...
TheTwilightIsMyRobe 6 months ago
@TheTwilightIsMyRobe George Kollias? Please tell me you're joking. You may as well go and say Joey Jordison... Thomas Haake is a similar style, just speed, blasting away with double bass pedals. There's not a great deal of technicality there, mostly speed. These guys look up to Joe Morello. Neil peart is amazing, but making a comparison across such different genres becomes pointless, as you should have understood. Do you play an instrument?
justanambulance 6 months ago
@justanambulance yeah, playing fast is a good thing, which old drummers don't have, i mean, neil peart or joe moello can't play that fast, but it doesn't mean they suck, and playing fast doen't mean it's technical, but really, kollias is fucking technical, and for haake, i think he must have 4 brains :S but it's sure, they can't play like moello or moello can't play like him, ok? there are more technical drummers that don't use speed, gavin harrison, danny carey... by the way i play guitar

@albertw666 they are not only good at speed, tomas haake can play 3 songs at the same time :S yeah some bands lack feeling, for example dream theater, but most of them has soul, like porcupine tree, opeth, agalloch, anathema, even death... but i hate the metalcore bands, they play fast, and then singing like gays to be emotional, like bullet for my valentine...

Joe Morello, and guys like him, were so incredible and ground breaking that 50 years later their sound is unmatched. As diluted as the music business is, that itself is a remarkable effort. He is definately one of the greats.

You kidding ? Morello is one of the most underated druller of this period... he deserves to be as famous as max roach roy haynes etc... but nobody cares coz he did "commercial things" like take five with white west coast jazz band. Seriously his fuckin awesome, just the way he beats the ride when he is on groovin makes me cry !

Thanks. I have lots of albums/cd's -- saw quartet in person many times -- never saw him do a Take 5 solo with hands. He DOES do a lot of hand work on amazing solo on Castillian Drums (Carnegie Hall concert), which I did have the opportunity to see him do in person... nearly 50 years ago!

it's a 5/4 so he play just 2 and 4 at the hat but you must think like that: 1 2 1 2 3 so you play all "2" with the hat

hmmmm many say speed is not equal to technical ability but why do all these jazz drummers seem to have BOTH of those worlds in their hands? insane speeds (buddy rich, gene krupa, JOE MORELLO, etc. all excel at druming fast in some way, be it with the one hand roll (like buddy) or quick displays of speed (gene or joe) and technical complexity such as playing wih your hands, performing awsome sounding solos on 5/4 and ofcourse wearing glasses while doing so.

I can't say I'm familiar with Joe Morello's career; jazz was always something that real musicians played as opposed to my rock pig pedigree. When you think that Joe had amassed so much technique (not to mention his barehanded originality) with gear that really was crap you have to conclude that real genius doesn't rely on 'gear' but rather on dedication, passion and the relentless pursuit of your individual voice. It's wonderful to think we have such an awesome archive of voices.
