I played this song in a band. I told them it would take me a while to master it. They said their other drummer didn't take long. I said, "I listened to the recording of your former drummer and he's not playing it right." It took me about 2 weeks of 15 -20minutes a day practice to make it smooth. Great lesson. I'm going to fool with this tomorrow. Thanks.

Its a pretty easy beat to cut corners and simplify, but will lose all feel and originality if so. Embarrassingly that's how I first played it.

I've had that same conversation many times J. Short. Good for you for telling the truth. I just learned Hey Pocky and it took about five sessions on my own. Non drummers usually, but not always, don't have a clue what's going on back there!

@@PicklePaint agreed, bassplayers, keyboardists and guitarists too! it's a deceptively easy sounding song but it's beauty is the simplicity, so when any instrument overplays in the open space, its no longer the real cissy strut

Having an intellectual understanding of The Meter's music is one thang, feelin it is another. Just listen to Zigaboo. No one can play like him. And it wasn't just him, it was the whole band. They could be tight and in sync even while they were all playing a different beat on the same song.

Great tutorial! Interesting, I always played the snare backbeats with the right hand. This way the sticking remains R-L-R-L until the "4 +", where I play open handed unison on hat and snare. But your method also works! And you have a nice tone and feel on the drums, I'm gonna show this to my daughter ... we need more female drummers!

Took me about 4 hours over 2 days to get this down pretty good. Once you can get the "a - 3 - e - And" right you've got it. What worked for me was just playing the sticking over and over (without the kick) 'till it was muscle memory, then just playing the bass drum till it was muscle memory, and then start real slow and put them together. The other variable to this is that it's a shuffle 16th.

First of all, I think you're a phenomenal drummer. Quick question though, how important is it that I lead with the left hand on the hats and snare? If I manage to keep that linear, two handed feel, does it matter if I sometimes start the first part of the beat leading with my right? Thanks.

There's a few things I would disagree with here, but the obvious one to me is Zigaboo does not keep time on the hats in the B section! Different kick/snare idea too... I've had a crack at transcribing the first A and B section off the record and this is what I came up with for anyone interested - kzitem.info/news/bejne/opprq2SHbmVqlJw

I actually feel like you're not getting the new orleans feel either. at least you're not playing it straight, but it does sound like you are just doing a regular shuffle feel. The thing about the new orleans shuffle is that it's somewhere in between. in my opinion that's what makes this drum part so special.

I think the notes are right, but the "swing" feel behind them is wrong (pretty much every cover has this problem). Counting it out and clapping the "swing", a normal swing feel might be like one-and.two-and.one-and.two, while I think the rhythm here is more like and.one---and.two---and.one---and.two--- A good example which, helpfully, includes some hand-clapping is "Hand Clapping Song" -- compare that with a traditional jazz/swing "feel" to hear the difference, a good example being the snapping at the start of this live version of "All Blues": kzitem.info/news/bejne/o3yr1amnj4dkemk

If you're trying to play it just like he do? It's ok to say it's wrong. Don't be shy, it's ok. I dunno if its easier to play the 1st 2 hi hat strokes with just the right hand. But it's all good. Rock on

Enjoyed watching, but learned nothing. I guess this is aimed at drummers who are already proficient or nearly there? It would have benefited from a slower more deliberate run through: the count; the drums hit, one-by-one, and less of playing the actual song at the end.

Sticking on the video is wrong , it has no feel. Go do your homework before making a video typical of you wannabes stick to heavy metal. - Drummer from Shreveport.
