  • Why does Travis Barker have to make it into the comments of every drum video? 

  • :55 -1:00 is pretty cool. Gene shows that you don't need blinding speed in order to be a great artist. His use use of syncopation is amazing.

  • @MsRockett88 The bassist is Benny Moten ~

  • @Harriyama I think that might be John Drew on bass, I found it very difficult to find info online though.

  • I am not a drummer, nor am I a bass player. I am just someone who loves music of all types, and have been exploring my "musicality" for the past few years. What I just saw starting at 2:10 of this viedo is perhaps one of the coolest things I have ever seen musically! Krupa was amazing!

  • Simple and complicated at the same time. The clarity on every beat and the sense of touch of Gene (I mean can you differentiate fingers from drumsticks?) were amazing in my opinion his best assets. I was pretty much influenced by far more modern drummers (prog rock,fusion, metal), but when I discovered Krupa and the other older drummers from the swing era, I realized how much influential they were in todays drumming. It is simply amazing that this happened so many years ago.

  • Fabulous. When I was very young (67-68) my mum used to tell me that my Grandpa was a huge Gene Krupa fan way back in the 40's & 50's, and used to play drums in a jazz/dance band. The irony is, he probably never saw this, just knew the old records that gene was on.

  • this is so awesome. krupa and the man playing the bass are just having so much fun going back and forth like that, just looking at each other like, "hey man look what i can do."

    this is what music is about.

  • Fucking Travis Crapper appearing in every REAL drummer video is either like:

    1) The herpes of every real drummer video, or,

    2) The equivalent of "Freebird!!!" on any musical concert.

    Geez...

  • does anyone know the name of the bassist?

  • I just played a Christmas concert with 40's music. I am familar with the music, but I never played it. I have the utmost respect for the drummers during this era. It's a bit more of a challenge that I actually thought. I want to learn/play more.

  • i would love to find caravan ...this is great !! ~
