  • Sounds like Jeff Porcaro's Rosanna groove ;D

  • BBOY BEAT :D

  • Wood pecker Andrew Andrew lemon aid.... Very cool I hear it in every example you played in this vid

  • I don't see anything wrong with this timing, but I'm not sure I'm a fan of using words, they can be useful in some situations ( like describing some of the basic polyrhythms ) but I think I preffer to just hear the groove played slowly until I can internalize it. Regardless, I think this a good lesson and a great groove. I think it sounds better when played slightly slower, but that's just me. Thanks for the lesson Geoff.

  • very useful lesson! could you please give a tutorial on how to play hi hat in this song? it's 'you might need somebody ' by shola ama. thank you :)
