Trilok Gurtu was brought up in a culture (the largest on earth - by a long shot) in which music is not counted. Music is not divided by numbers- and why would anyone? We don’t do that to learn speech. And as Andrew said, this certainly is a conversation between the two of them..... If majority rules, well.....and imagine how odd it might have felt for him to discover counted music. I found this BY CHANCE, Heard that John Mclaughlin was a good guitar player, bought tickets without knowing anything else - around 1982 perhaps - an 80 seat jazz club outside of Houston that used to be a neighborhood bank, a one table thick wraparound second-floor balcony, and I was looking down at Trilok from about 15 feet. Watched him do the water thing, etc - I did not know my date very well and was somewhat concerned that if I looked her way (which I had not done for ~ 15 minutes) she might well be gone. I look and she’s weeping. Stella Cady. An angel come to earth. I bought a set cuz of Pick Withers, “Wild West End” - the entire album in fact - did you see how FAST Trilok’s r hand was on that cymbal? Wow. Just so relaxed Andrew thanks again ! Patrick
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Found Bill Frisell the same way - heard zero of his stuff b4, I’m in the 3rd row and he just partnered up with Kenny Wollison Life did change a bit after that.....
I was fortunate enough to see John McLaughlan with Dennis Chambers here in Vancouver, which was incredible… but this performance is beyond description. Thanks for reminding me of Trilok. ✌🏻
Trilok is unlike any other! He made those two Trio recordings amazing! ‘Florianapolis’ from ‘Live At The Royal Festival Hall is my first McLaughlin experience, been hooked ever since! Nice choice!!
Yuppers. And especially drummers and percussionists. I believe he has played with a pantheon of drummers of our lifetime. I know I'll miss some but: Baker, Williams, DeJohnette, Cobham, Walden, Gurtu, Chambers, Jones, Colaiuta, Mondesir, Barot, and, maybe the GOAT --Hussain. Apologies if I have forgotten or not listed all the drummers/percussionist his played with on other musicians albums. There is a reason all these folk have played with him...
It never would have occurred to me to recommend this one to you, but I'm so glad someone did. Any fellow Gen-Xers remember "the cutout bin," where you could get marked down cassettes? I bought "John McLaughlin Trio at the Royal Festival Hall" for a buck. It didn't take long to become probably one of my top five most influential drum albums, even without a bass drum anywhere in sight. Trilok Gurtu is a wizard.
I saw this band in the early 90s. Trilok's solo was similar and at that time I'd never seen him do that. Everyone in the room was whispering things like "what is he doing?" Everyone's whispers sounded like more birds in the forrest, so Trilok really had us adding to his soundscape, incredible! If anyone needs inspiration to do things differently, take this as a personal letter from Trilok saying "just go for it!". I know I've taken similar inspiration.
Saw him at the festival in 1996. He was amazing. Great line up that year, Narada, Lombardo, Elvin, Tim Alexander. For the price that you paid for those tickets, 50 bucks back then for both days, the amount of information you could get plus hanging out with all those monster players, priceless.
Oh boy, does this bring back some great memories! Got the related live CD when it came out 1990ish (not this exact performance, but many, if not all of, the same musical elements). Was a huge John McLaughlin fan at the time, and listened to the whole CD on repeat for hours at a time. Many thanks to the requester and to you, Andrew, for playing it
Trilok its from other planet.. No words.. Every song its a travel, from the deppest rain forest, along the desert and swiming in the sea, and in one second fliying to the moon.. One absolute artist
Andrew, just imagine what reading the tab for this would be like... Sorta A.D.D. 'And now I 'flange the gong for half a measure. Then I use the hoof shaker...' I love this! Great pick!!!!
Loved this Andrew! Ive never seen anyone react to Trilok which is a shame as he's incredible and is like the ultimate percussionist and so unique too... this whole performance/album is well worth checking out if you ever get chance...brilliant reaction and analysis as always thanks!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums I know it's criminal a world class percussionist of his caliber is not well known... it happens too often though unfortunately! Another relatively unknown drummer is Paco Sery from the band Sixun... he is mind blowing but not well known outside the jazz/world music scene. maybe you could react to more jazz drummers or percussionists Andrew? Zakir Hussain plays Tabla and is beyond words, there are so many incredible ones out there...love your reactions anyway thanks again.
I was lucky enough to see this tour and it was a really outstanding gig. Trilok Gurtu was mesmerising (and I'd gone to see McLaughlin!). At one point they did a Konnakol (Indian drumming language, look it up!!) 'scat off' between each other which was a real highlight. I met them afterwards, great night
I remember that ! Wasn’t it between Kai Eckhardt and Trilok Gurtu? At one point during a bass solo, Eckhardt veered off into a little “rap” then muttered under his breath, “small change”
I also discovered Trilok Gurtu by chance when a friend played JMT live at royal festival hall. Within 30 seconds of the first tune (blue in green) I asked "who's the drummer?". Later I was fortunate enough to see him perform in a drum clinic setting in Wheatridge Colorado (roughly one hour solo, (?!)). Im a visual artist, painter, sculptor etc. Nonetheless I bought a tabla and began the long journey with that instrument. Everyday I am still wrapping my head around this man's skill on tabla and "traditional" drumkit . Anyway, lovely channel Andrew. Thank you Patrick
If I played on my knees like that, I would need a good twenty minutes just to stand up again. And possibly the help of one or two people to pull me up.. The old knees ain't what they used to be.
I suggest you the record live in London trio perhaps 1989 maybe... Mac Laughlin, Kai eckard and trilogy gurtu. It’s not jazz, just an another thing... music, like a big trip where we have never been
@@BassieMario Total amaze balls! I lived in Perth, West Australia for 12 years and was lucky enough to know two percussionists who knew Trilok well. Gary Ridge and Wency D’Souza.
I had read about Trilok years ago in Modern Drummer but I never made the effort to hear him play. It really was something rather special to finally hear him. I read a comment saying that musicians don't count in Trilok's musical culture, which I believe is somewhere in India (India is such a big country I would doubt there is only one musical culture there). I recall Steve Smith talking about his studies in Indian tabla rhythms. He said they use a syllable system. So if one is playing a five note grouping, a certain five syllables are said aloud (when learning and practicing of course). A seven note grouping uses seven syllables, and so forth. Really intricate polyrhythms feature prominently in Indian music as well. I thought I caught a bit of that in Trilok's playing. I'm sure others with better trained ears than mine would have picked a lot more of what he was playing than I did. Nevertheless I was impressed how he used his chops to serve the music completely.
Wow - thanks for that - didn’t he say “hi honey” at one point ? The audience laughs, then the rhythm changes, and the conversation continues. I’ve been learning drums by Assigning words syllables phrases to drum beats so that instead of counting them, I’m actually playing the rhythm or prosody of speech; It’s so much more musical than counting Glad to hear it has a precedent, thanks again!
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Cool. Thanks Do any music teachers employ the Indian practice of teaching notes as syllables, licks as words/short phrases, trading solos as a conversation? I gotta look into that. When I play phrases, with accents where they fall in the phrase, I find two or three accent levels that are easy to control, and my playing almost starts to sound musical - definitely better than when I count anyway. I’d love to know what a good drummer would do with that concept, and how many already do - some keep secrets !
Not gonna lie, this is definitely not my cup of vodka. But, I can see the talent. I'm definitely going to see if I can find some stuff of him playing "actual drums".
More like, Aric Improta's AD drumming is the closest thing to *this*, since this predates Improta by a good number of years. Just giving you some grief, but yeah, I wouldn't be at all surprised if this was among Aric's inspirations!
Hey Andrew, quite literally a minute ago I stumbled on to a video here on TH-cam that you might get a kick out of. The channel is rdavidr and they made a hi hat out of 2 gongs! Fairly short and thought provoking in a fun way! Hope you check it out... It's cool, hip and different .
Nice one! If you ever decide to check out Godsmack's "DRUM BATTLE" th-cam.com/video/iJ8-r_hd5PY/w-d-xo.html , I'd love to know who you think won. Every reaction video I've seen on this performance never picks a winner. Personally, I think the audience was the winner. Do check it out when you can. It's pretty amazing. These guys know their craft.
@@AndrewRooneyDrums No problem. I've been into this drummer since the early 90's. I've seen him with McLaughlin for the Que Alegria tour and also saw him perform with his own bands countless times.. He's simply brilliant and a one of a kind. Check out more of his videos with him playing. He can play the trap set with one hand and play tabla with the other and play some insane rhythms. In my humble opinion, aside from the innovative drumming from Billy Cobham, Tony Williams, etc. during the hey day of '70's fusion, I'd put Trilok Gurtu as definitely one of the most innovative drummers/percussionists of all time. He definitely has odd times running through his veins…. What I love most is his sense of swing, innovative way to accent the music and how he's playing the melodies of the compositions.
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Here, watch this more recent performance from 2016. Go to 11:00 into the video, he plays tabla with one hand and the kit with another.. 🙂 th-cam.com/video/SVF6koRqx9M/w-d-xo.html
Id like it better solo without the annoying repetitive acoustic axe chords- in my opinion that took away from his percussion and drumming style and was more a distraction then a benefit
But didn’t it seem that Trilok focused on that vamp ? The eye contact and playfulness back and forth....may I suggest listening again, with eyes closed? All the best ! Patrick

This is a gem

There is a reason all these folk have played with him...
I saw Trilok do a clinic 20ish years ago. It was mesmerizing the dynamics and sounds that he produced. Great to see him get some love.
He's a gem Shawn!
Saw him in Manchester at a Zildjian night back in the nineties...blew my mind! Got a signed cd and a brief chat...inspirational night.
All drummers that played with John Mclaughlin were the best. Billy Cobham, Narada Walden, Danny Gottlieb, Dennis Chambers etc.

Bad hair day. Good drum day. That was awesome.

Dude the band's named after plays 6 minutes of 2 harmonics, Somehow Gurtu found like 5000 ways to interpret around those notes.
