I like your style dude! But i don't like the sound of your skins...

[Toomuchschugar]

Totally wonderful! Where do you live? Would love to work with you-

[MXZCharlie]

dude any way you could explain what you're doing at 3:42? shit those are some intense grace notes and double strokes. This is one of my favourite songs, hopefully i can play it like this when i get to your age lol!

[caffeineadvocate]

@MXZCharlie Are you calling me old? Jerk. :) All I'm doing there is a paradiddle-diddle (RLRRLL) with an accented first note alternating between the hats and the snare, and all the 'in between' notes are ghosted.

[MXZCharlie]

@caffeineadvocate haha no i would never insult someone of your talent level :P, i meant cause im only 17 :P

and thanks alot, thats great to know.

[zubareus]

[Smartdrive100]

great playing!

[kalebunger]

Brother, man! This is simply fantastic! My favorite part is where your crush your right-side crash (is that an 18"?) and watch the sizzle fly off. The smile afterward with the slight head-shake accents it quite well.

Boy, I love funk/jazz drumming and this is a great example. Excellent job, David. Any idea where to get the backing track and/or the original Cobham transcription? I'd love to hammer this one out. :)

Cheers, Thomas

[caffeineadvocate]

@tk050305cnx The backing track comes from Billy Cobham's book, 'Conundrum' Ultimate Play-Along. Glad you dig it, Thomas.

[asimsidd]

You are superb! Can you please send the backing track to asimsiddiqui01@hotmail.com ..

[bobgatzen]

Great feel & touch. You're on the track... keep up the good work David!

[caffeineadvocate]
