Go to http://bangthedrumsquickly.com to get the 3 SIMPLE STEPS ON HOW TO LEARN THIS GROOVE!! In this video we go over the infamous Blakey Mambo as play by Art Blakey. Probably one of my biggest idols when it comes to drumming. In 1954 he had teamed up with pianist Horace Silver where they co-founded the name The Jazz Messengers. A couple years later Silver had left the group in search for his own project, but leaving the name The Jazz Messenger. Thus Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. A really good recording of this groove is A Night In Tunisia off of his album A Night In Tunisia.
