myspace.com/thomassienko Sitting in with Tower of Power. Playing along to a minus track from David Garibaldi's Code of Funk. My drums are the only ones you hear since Garibaldi's were 'minused' out, hence the minus track. Hope you enjoy! Playing Experience: 5 years

  • where do u find that music with no drums

  • Comes with the book I'm studying out of.

  • what snare do u use?

  • All maple Pacific LX.  Tuned fairly tight. Heavy compression in the studio.

  • PLEASE., if youre tryin to play it like the record, take out your snare on each 2nd beat, its NOT there, listen to it carefully....the absence of that snare of the 2nd beat makes the whole beat, and you ruin the dynamic by playing on the down 2!!!

  • Indeed, I can hear that now as I have gone back and been revising the tunes from the book.

  • nice cover good book too

  • Dude I know this comment's been posted, but that accented snare on the 2nd beat confused the hell out of me after I downloaded your video as a visual reference.

  • Gingers DO have soul!

  • Swwet, I love this song! Nice job!

  • wow!! honestly I don't know many people that can play Tower of Power and stuff like you do!! awesome!! =D

  • this is so funky it almos hurts. in a good way.

  • man, that is funky as shit.

  • Thanks Julio, you notice I didnt respond to Alfen... I dont join in hating comments, thats all you see on Youtube, even the drummer HIMSELF was humble and replied. He knew he wasnt groovin it right.......Alfen doesnt know funk , thats all... I dont blame him....haters will always be haters.

    If you REALLY know Garibaldi, then my comment made sense..... Ive been a fan of TOP since the 70's too.... the best band in the world, bar none!!!!!.... Thanks for your support and understanding..... !

  • listen good ALFEN12 all that MUGAWAII2008

    had to say is DARN right..he's not an asshole it's you who do not understand FUNK..you better keep grooving on your instrument if you know what i'm talking about..

    I just wish that a member of TOP would react on these comments

    i'm 56 years old and listening to TOP sinds day one,believe this guy is not grooving all the way.

    Listen to the drummer from the METERS

    You bet that that's where garibaldi got his ideas...AMEN
