Those 28 minutes just flew by. Great interview.
Just listen to 'Satisfaction' by Bill Champlin. JR's drumming is just phenomenal!
john jr robinson is one of my favorite drummer and a dw drums artist..... as a drummer john is also my influences of his best groove in his drumming career.... and i love dw drums and i wish i can have it......☺☺☺☺☺
Having worked with so many amateur drummers that played too much, it is very comforting to know that even the great JR was gently nudged to keep it simple. I love this guy.
JR has that voice of a DJ.
Interestingly, studio keyboard great Michael Boddicker also came from Iowa.
JR' groove..the way he plays to.enjoy it is what a drummer does. If unfeel the groove an feel it. Its muscle memory as anything being active if dat makes since. Its one thing to play its another when folks wanna dance to the groove the music. . Thabk u John. Im John as well. Real talk t you
At 4:05, wished you would have asked JR to elaborate on his “time concept” statement.
You would Definitely Think he would,do obvious but NO!
Amazing interview John is a leyend god bless him thanks 🙏
When I first saw John play on a TH-cam video he reminded me a lot of John Bonham for some reason. Powerful swing drummer was the connection I think. That is what John Bonham was and everyone thought he was just a power house Rock Drummer. Ian Paice from Deep Purple was the same way. Mitch Mitchell from the Jimi Hendrix Experience. A lot of the British drummers had that swing influence. You can see he plays for the music and song and has a nice groove. Great to watch and to listen to. Great Interview with great questions. Very interesting.
Hey James, thanks for the comment & compliments! You are so right about those british rock drummers and their certain kind of swing! thanks for watching.. Dirk
These rock drummers are fine,but no match to Robinson.he really grooves
Great!! Legendary John "JR" Robinson ❤
Creative restraint.
This guy is THE BEST drummer.
There is no best either your really good or your not. JR would say this . But yes he's friggin great. It's Vinnie JPocaro an JR..I LOVE John Bonham too. I enjoy Keith Carlock an one of my best friends the D Strikland also Robert Montgomery is why I love the kit. I always had a guitar. I nevva got a kit till I was 50 yrs old. I played snare 4 years in the band Sat 1st chair till I quit honest. If I'd just not quit I'd had more credits to pass my grade lmao. Hey we gotta f up to learn . Real talk..
Love that kit !
