Jimmy Cobb Trio Solo - Drum Channel

[minkusink6]

thats one strong lumberjack who knows how to rip it up

[fnkdrmmr]

This is prime drumming. Jazz drumming at its finest. I remember when my old Jazz drum teacher told me; "right now you're playing that funk/pop/rock stuff, but when you get older and mature, you'll then begin to play Jazz..."

[iscottm]

cool!

[barackobamadickface]

[SMcQuadeDrums]

I wouldn't want to fuck with that old guy. He must have grown up on a farm or something..

[danielsoferman]

I was at his show last year he was like 81 or 87 i dont remember but it was really great and he was just as good as the early years

[drummerboypaddy]

whats so spezial on it every nearly good player can do that

[ethansimon94]

@drummerboypaddy

dude. Jimmy Cobb is not about chops.

Yes, any drummer COULD do that. But WOULD they?

Do you assess all music based on technical prowess? It's art, not sports.

[twelvebarblues1]

@ethansimon94 Well said Sir.

[WildSurrender]

awesome

[Dragspelarn23]

I like his style:)

[smurfhunterguy]

[SalvadoreanKOV]

He was at my class today in SFSU!!!! :D hes raw !!

[ThemJazzyBeats]

What's his drums ?

DW jazz series ?

[awesomewelles90]

What's up with the matched grip?

[rushour144]

Whats wrong with matched grip?!?!?!?!?! HAha jk, but thats how I play jazz. It is a lot easier to play solos that way. And before you call me dumb for playing jazz matched grip, ask yourself other than seeing jazz drummers played traditional, is there any rule that jazz is only allowed to be played traditional? I have always played drums (all styles) matched, so why should I sacrifice technique for playing a different way in a certain style and not another. Phew, sorry for the rant!

[wetdog158]

@rushour144 Bill Stewart plays matched grip. That's all the proof I need to say you can swing with matched grip.

[smerhej1234]

@wetdog158 More so French than German though. :D

[slick82958]

@rushour144 Honestly, i started out matched cause I played rock. But when I discovered jazz, I made the pain staking process of crossing over. I hated playing traditional on anything other than jazz cause I wasn't as good. Now i hate playing matched cause I can do so much more traditionally. I honestly think traditional is better, i even play rock traditionally now, I get so much more feel out of it than matched. If you practice traditional more, you'll find the same thing.

[zildmaster]

wow, when you become a great drummer you can use any grip you want to depending on how the style is. I play in the jazz band here at Purdue and I often switch between traditional and matched grip all the time, playing in pep band i use matched all the time! It all depends on what feels comfortable to the drummer. There's no rule limiting you to any grip, i play french on my ride.. so experimenting to get the best sound is also a reason to switch

[itsbenagain]

bolivia?

[AggressiveC]

Can someone tell me why he is using Zildjian? I thought he endorsed Sabian!

[onesogreat77]
