This is my "drum" cover song channel. I retired from a career as an electro-mechanical designer in 2016. Since then I spend my free time learning and recording drums to the songs that are the sound track of my life. Some are "play along", most are karaoke versions. Yes, I have ran afoul of copyright laws. If a song is taken down by an overzealous management company, I simply choose another song. I don't think I'll run out of songs to play drums to. And if this channel is taken down, it will have very little effect on my life's direction. Peace and love to all.
Rikki Don't lose That Number (drum cover)
"Rikki Don't Lose That Number" is a single released in 1974 by rock/jazz rock group Steely Dan and the opening track of their third album Pretzel Logic. It was the most successful single of the group's career, peaking at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the summer of 1974.[3]
The song features Jim Gordon on drums, as does the bulk of the Pretzel Logic album. The guitar solo is by Jeff "Skunk" Baxter who soon after joined The Doobie Brothers.
Victor Feldman's flapamba introduction to the song, which opens the album, is cut from the original ABC single version.[4] The MCA single reissue (backed with "Pretzel Logic") includes the flapamba intro but fades out just before the actual end of the track.
Just to clear up a generation's worth of rumors about the lyrics of "Rikki Don't Lose That Number," Walter Becker stated for the record in a 1985 interview in the pages of Musician that the "number" in question was not slang for a marijuana cigarette ("send it off in a letter to yourself," supposedly a way to safely transport one's dope back before the post office abolished general delivery mail,[a] was held up as the key line), and an uncharacteristically forthcoming Donald Fagen has similarly revealed that the "Rikki" in question was simply a woman he'd had a crush on in college [writer Rikki Ducornet]. It says something about Steely Dan's reputation as obscurantists that even a straightforward lost-love song like "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" could be so widely over-interpreted. ... It's unsurprising that "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" ended up becoming Steely Dan's biggest commercial hit ... as it's one of the group's most gentle and accessible songs.

Good evening and liezal.
Good job it's good for you.
That's a fun little tune. 👏🏼
Whew. I wasn't even born when this classic came out. Catchy beat.
I was 10. lol
@garryraines2028 , 😄
Great tune! Thanks for sharing. 💙
Thanks Trista!
@garryraines2028 , You're welcome.
Great jam. 👏🏼💙
It has been a while since I've heard that song. Great jam.
Thanks Trista!
@garryraines2028 , You're welcome.
An actual cover! All the other "covers" of this song that I find on TH-cam are actually play overs.
Thank you for noticing.
Мне нравится!!!!!!
Thanks
Woah This is very beautiful my friend! 👏🏼You did an awesome job 😊 (I covered this too btw) ☺️
Thanks ! You did a great version too!
TH-cam needs a ❤ button like FB does. 👏🏼 Bravo!
That was a great jam.👏🏼💙
Thank you Trista ❤
@@garryraines2028, You're welcome.
I'm not a fan of country music, but I enjoyed that. 💙
Thank you Trista. You're a sweet person.
@@garryraines2028, You're welcome, and thank you. As are you.
That was pretty great. 👏🏼 💙
I'm behind on my Youtubing. But that was pretty great. 👏🏼 Bravo! 💙
Excellent!
Nailed it! I'm going to practice to this video so that I can nail it too. I've recently stared retraining myself after too many years away from playing. This is one of my favorite Tom Petty songs. I'm also planning on singing it too. Thank you very much Garry!
Thank you. I didn't play for almost 30 years, then picked it back up when I retired. Now I play every day. Keep going!
Me encanta😁😘💓💓💓
I'm going to get hate for this, but I was never a Skynyrd fan. But since it's you, I was happy to oblige. 💜
I liked Lynyrd Skynyrd, but not any more or less than other bands at the time. I seen them play Free Bird in Jonhson City a few weeks before the plane crash. Man what wild crowd! I know they have a following. So does Michael Jackson. This is the only Skynyrd song I've ever done. And it's mostly a statement about gun violence to me. And I do like to rock! No hate from me Trista. Hope you're well and happy.
This song came out 1 year before I was born. Enjoyed your tune. 💜
I forget how young you are!
@@garryraines2028, 😅 Shew. I sure don't feel it.
Nice. Very soothing. 💙
Happy Birthday Trista!
@garryraines2028 , Well, thank you for the wishes. Happy Birthday to you tomorrow. I hope it's a blessed day with family. 🎊🥳🎁🎈🎂 💙
That was very soothing. 💜

I know that I wasn't born when this song came out. But such a great song. 🎵 💜
Exactly, it's a great song, and that's why I did it as a drum cover. Thanks Trista

Nope, it's not my usual genre but I'm looking for new songs to play all the time and you never know what I'll try next. I've got Ed Sheeran and Moon Taxi in the queue. Hope your well and good Trista. 🙃
