- Bernard Purdie is a drummer’s drummer for sure and his famous Shuffle has inspired countless musicians on the planet. This is my humble tribute to the ‘Purdie Shuffle’ as celebrated on one of my favourite Steely Dan tracks. I recommend to watch Bernard’s drum lesson on ‘Drumeo’: • The Purdie Shuffle | B...

Purdie Shuffle is on point. Love to see younger generation play timeless music.
Rock, pop, classical, hard rock .... and now jazz-rock. No matter what music you play, it's fantastic to watch you drumming.
Uwe, I could not agree more!!
What class you showed doing such a beautiful classic song.
Very impressive Sina.
Oh the beauty of simplicity in the complex. In there rest the beauty of of very capable hands of an artist.
WOW, perfect as always...greatest BAREFOOT DRUMMER ever....
From rock and heavy metal to the blues and jazz. Pure blissful listening pleasure. You've done it again.
OMG you are so wanderful at doing these covers. I loved this cover almost as much as much as the originals. It's not always about the hard driving drums and speed of the playing. This was awesome. Thank you!
Some may say this shuffle is not that hard to play, but to play it with the "Lazy", Soulful feeling that you do is a great talent. Excellent rendition of a track I have been listening to for over 40yrs. Bernard would be proud.
Steely Dan ... wow, that's old school. Very cool.
Heh heh, and I thought she'd never be going back.
Jeff England yesterday is old and gone.
Jeff England Steely Dan is simply just GOOD MUSIC.
mark rigsby bullshit.
@@jongroubert4203 Ha, good one. I wish she would do, My Old School. Also, Aja, Hey Nineteen, Any Major Dude, Peg, Royal Scam, etc. Yes, I am a huge Steely Dan fan. Loved this, Home at Last. It made me feel, 'at home'. At last! 😎
Been listening all along, but had to comment today. I love your Berndard Purdie tribute. The shuffle and the love that you've put into this drum track is so very, very beautiful. Thank you for sharing all of your talents and efforts with us. A 'hi' to Milena, your dad and all of those that contribute to your musical dream. Peace.
Jesus wept, this takes some nerve. Becker and Fagan were renowned for being uber fussy over the work that their session players did.
I think you could have easily played this live with Steely Dan. That's a compliment if ever I heard one. But you've done the work and everyone can see how talented you are.
Keep it up kid.
That's right, it takes some balls to do this. Oh, yeah. Some ovaries? It takes some kind of big ovaries to do this stuff.
Bernard should be proud of your masterful take on the Purdie Shuffle. Well done.
Wow, I love it! Steely Dan is possibly my favorite band ever, and you totally nailed the "Purdie Shuffle". Awesome stuff:)
Lets call it the Sina Barefoot Shuffle!Great tribute to a true drumming legend! The Purdie Shuffle was Drumming 101 in school!
scott FabT-Birds79
Wow scott, I've been wondering about Fab-T-Birds that you go by. Just found out , that is awesome you played with them, was that in 79? one other question "Is she tough enough " Sina. I rocked with you'ens. I suspected this with your drum knowledge.
Steely Dan too? You really played this so well, soft without overpowering already soft music! I doesn’t surprise me, I don’t think there is ANY song you don’t make just a little better!
Got to love the Dan jazz funk sound. Late night sounds
i love the care you take on each note/hit. Lingering and waiting for each touch - Especially on cymbal. Steely Dan, as a collective is known for the the care taken in each moment and half beat of every song. Well done and captured I thought.
Luvit when sina does old school stuff..can't wait to see her try out some west coast jazz tunes.
Absolutely fantastic. I am always impressed when I hear ur stuff Sina! Steely Dan is a favorite of mine and Home At Last is a great song. I truly appreciate ur talents and ur covering a lot of great music from the 70's and early 80's. Please do more more Steely Dan. Thank you and keep em coming.
Hooray! It's FRIDAY! Time to listen to new Sina's covers :)
Kate Kuziakina _she has an examination next week, thumb for her, ♾
Kate Kuziakina Shouldn't we be listening to Kate covers also?
Kate Kuziakina Amen
If it's for drums, she's going to ace it.
First off...Shame on the haters who disliked this Awesome Drum Cover! All the Elements of Bernard Purdie's Original Work are here...the Shuffle...the Halftime...the Ghost Notes on the Snare...the Open/Close Hi-Hat Sizzle Accents on the Chorus...Quarter-Note Triplet Stops...Funky Bass Drum Kicks...the Fills...the Ride Bell on the Ending. Excellent Work Sina! Bernard Purdie would be proud of this Drum Cover! It's simply one of the Top Drum Covers of "Home At Last" on TH-cam if not the Best! Your Technique is smooth and your Drums sound great! Keep playing...
There are men who fear and hate women more than they love drumming; it’s their embuggerance.
I think Purdue was playing a china on the outro. Is anyone agree?
LovE Steely Dan and your skills are so free flowing and natural ~~~~ I was just wondering to myself this morning if you had tried this band and typed in Sina playing Steely Dan and sure enough it pops right up! NOTHING surprises me anymore.....Nice groove ~~
Only a steely-nerved drummer would take on Bernie. How'd she do?
"Home at Last" was written by Walter Becker and Donald Fagen. It's track 5 of the album 'Aja' which was recorded during the first half of 1977 and released on Sept 23, 1977. Although three other songs, "Peg", "Deacon Blues" and "Josie", were released as singles, this track wasn't so its chart history is that of the album - 'Aja' peaked at #3 on Oct 22, 1977 with a total of 60 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart.
Given Becker and Fagen's fondness of using cultural and literary references, often arcane, in their lyrics, most critics believe the song is based on Homer's epic poem "The Odyssey" in which Ulysses struggles to return home. Some disagree citing the first lines "I know this super highway, this bright familiar sun" and feel the song is about Becker and Fagen wishing to leave Los Angeles, where they'd moved in 1971 and formed Steely Dan, and return to their native New York - which they did in 1978. It's not unusual for Steely Dan lyrics to be rather obscure and have multiple or parallel meanings. The mention of the Greek wine retsina, which has been made for 2000 years, could tip the balance one way or the other. Your choice, or both! :D
Having ceased touring in mid-1974, Steely Dan became just Becker and Fagen and each subsequent album featured a who's who of top-notch session musicians. "Home at Last" has Donald Fagen on vocals and synthesizer, Victor Feldman on piano and vibraphone, and Larry Carlton on guitar - however, Walter Becker plays the guitar solo. The rhythm section is dual living legends Chuck Rainey on bass and Bernard Purdie on drums.
Purdie has done session work for many major artists like James Brown, Jeff Beck, Miles Davis, The Rolling Stones, Al Kooper, Larry Coryell, B.B. King, and Joe Cocker. He was Aretha Franklin's musical director for five years and played on three of her albums. He's also on three Steely Dan albums - 'The Royal Scam', 'Aja', and 'Gaucho'. He's considered to be a groove drummer with a signature sixteenth note hi-hat lick. He frequently fuses influences like swing, funk and blues. His "Half-time Shuffle" is a variation with ghost note snare hits and it inspired a number of drummers including Jeff Porcaro who incorporated it into his "Rosanna Shuffle" for Toto. Sina already mastered Porcaro's version. Regular visitors to this channel know there is a cover of "Rosanna" as well as a "Rosanna" drum tutorial in Sina's previous videos.
There, you see? It didn't take a steely-nerved drummer at all. Just a very talented one!
Juliet P., yes Sina did very well and very precisely, just like in her tutorials and in "Rosanna". Again I must say what a wonderful commentary you've given us this Friday - time signatures I can barely comprehend, esoteric insight and parallelisms - I feel like a 9-year old past his bedtime again and I'm enjoying every minute of it :)
I see what you did there :-)
Thanks.
.
Juliet P. How'd she do? Looking for help I found _breathtaking, awe-inspiring, magnificent, wonderful, amazing, stunning, staggering, imposing, stirring, impressive; formidable, fearsome,mind-boggling, mind-blowing, jaw-dropping, excellent, marvelous; wondrous._
However I will simply say *_"Sina nailed it!"_* Happy TGIF to you Juliet and have a sunny weekend.
Fagan's 'characters' rarely are biographical (unless he actually is a pedophile drug addict terrorist freak), but sometimes they probably have biographical elements. The chorus of course refers to the siren song that lured sailors to the rocks and the destruction of their ship--easily translatable to any fem-fatale the character might have encountered. To keep from being so lured, Odysseus is tied to the mast. More generally Odysseus' journey is the 'journey of the hero' which is a staple throughout western literature since obviously ancient times right through to the modern era. It culminates with the passage of the hero through numerous trials and his safe return to home and hearth. I always took this lyrics as a Fagan character empathizing with the trials and tribulations of Odysseus. In all likelihood it's about going on a long tour with the band. But of course it's left open, which is the mark of a good lyric. That way it may be about a long tour with the band, but it also works for whatever it conjures for the listener given their experiences.
I'd like to hear Sina tackle the Steve Gadd solo on Aja
I love it! I love R&B. Purdie had very precise timing doing this, just like you did, Sina. You are certainly extraordinary!!!
Steely Dan wanted drum tracks that were inspired. This is one of the best and this cover is excellent. Very talented young lady!
Thanks for selecting such a great song. Love their harmonies and brass. Darn, I wish we had more of this in pop music today. Somebody's got to keep it alive and well. Bruno can only do so much, so it's up to cover artists to feature the good stuff.
Nothing but class all the way with Sina! Wow this is great! Thank you. I am looking forward to what is to come next week even more!!! I know its something amazing!!! Loving our diversity so much Sina. You truly are phenomenal
Wow, wow wow....your pushing the beat forward with the bass is nothing short of amazing. Just wow...
What a pleasure to listen to this piece after a busy week, Thank you Sina and the team x
Loving that shuffle! Again masterfully played!
I two years out of High School when this song came out. Great job Sina! Thank You!!
Sorry I left out the word "was". They didn't teach that word at my school. I have the Aja album and just might have to play it today!
Wonderful to see you playing some Jazz & R&B. A few of rock's finest drummers studied the style and tempo of the great Jazz percussion artists. You style is really developing into something special.
This is so SICK! In a good way of course...
Thanks for the good feeling !!! Love the way you drum
Performance ART. WOW! Thank you for Fridays.
Wow, Sina, in this cover you play so perfectly on the beat. You’ve such a great feel for whatever you’re playing. Your ability to capture nuance is amazing.
I’d love to hear a cover of Aja from this album or the tune Pools from Steps Ahead. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
Love you Sina! I'm thinking DAD has a lot of influence in your talents and successes from seeing you playing those classic tunes! Here's to both of you! I just tripped over your videos and have been "bedazzled" for the last few hours... You've inspired a 56 yr old to pull out his drums from under the dust and give them renewed life! An uncle of the beatles days inspired my brother & I to take up playing. I've never taken lessons and can do a good percentage of your moves, but your talent and love of drums inspires me to want to practice some of the fundamentals and improve what I know. Not bad when someone my age would like you as a teacher...! Thanks so much for the inspiration!!! I'm planning on setting up in the basement and hooking videos, including yours, up to the stereo upstairs. That way, my my wife will hear the whole song and not just the drumming. We may get along that way!...
Thanks for the videos and everyone involved. The talent is as great as the artists of those eras! Sincerely - from Winnipeg Canada
Aaaaah I love this! It sounds incredibly good! Listened to it twice. Once without and once with earphones and it sounds so good! Love this Sina! ♥️🎶🎧
Oh I just quickly have to add: you always play with such ease! You play like it’s the simplest thing on earth and I love that! ♥️
Very perceptive Mayte.. Sina is exceptional in all ares of drumming
So true, Sina has the groove to maintain her smooth flow even when working through very difficult skills. I'd love to see you perform with 'Team Sina' one of these days, Ms. Mayte...wouldn't that be something?!
So would I Jason... hopefully some day
Jason Meinhart I’d absolutely love to!! 😍
Your versatility is absolutely amazing.... I adore listening to you play. Thank you for 6 minutes of pure joy.
You certainly distinguish yourself not only with your obvious talent, but you have such diversity and range that so few seem to capture! You make the technical precision of your renditions of various styles and artists seem so easy! Sina, you are truly a gifted musician! Thank you for brightening our Friday!
Hi Sina, You keep coming up with these fantastic covers. I love Steely Dan. they were quite commercial in the early days songs like Rikki Don't Loose that Number and Do It Again Then sort of switched to more jazz based songs terrific band Thanks so much for covering another one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands. well done exceptional playing as always.
Sina, Deine musikalische Vielfalt ist einfach phänomenal. Das ist, was mir an Deiner Musik so gefällt...
Sina you've got a phenomenal musical diversity. That is, what I like about your music
Jazzy and groovy. Close ypur eyes and go with the flow. It looks easy but it is not. You can hear the melody in the drumming. Very good performed Sina! I ❤ it!
P.S. My two Sina-Drums T-shirts arrived today! I am ready for the summer!
How cool!!!
I've watched this video like 6 times over the past couple of months! So good!
Hay Sina, thank you for the beautiful video. I'm also a big fan of Steely Dan but your performance is awesome. Greetings from Amsterdam.
Super Performance. Hard work for our refreshment. Thank SINA for doing this for us. It's wonderful. :)) ♥♥♥
love your feel...that is so important to any good drumming. you put your whole body, mind and soul into every video....very nice. I been drumming for 50 years...feel is key. thanks for your tremendous talent shared.
The melancholy sound of Steely Dan. The falling out of love period lasted several years, thanks for the memories.
Thank you SINA for all you do, rock on.
This must be the famous Sina Shuffle 🥁... Thanks.🤗
One of my favorite bands of all time and you just killed it!! I'm hooked.
I literally love this.👏🏻👏🏻 !!
I'm second! This girl is a true professional! A percussionist! Love ya Sina👍👍👍👍👍👍
Sina your attention to symbol work and your ability to know when to play soft and hard for effect in general are exceptional!!!
Thank you! Sina have a sunny fun weekend.
Great to be with you when you're shuffling through this song. This style suits you as naturally as the hammering off a week ago. And your sound - be it on the snare or the "metal" - ist just wonderful. So I really enjoy the few bonus bars after the song ended. Thanks for one more of your so much appreciated "Friday gifts".
What a wonderful transition from a wild crazy Sina to a relaxed and laid back Sina wonderful job you've got it together girl
Right you are, Hayes! It's those transitions that amaze me over and over again. And wherever Sina "transitions to" - please pardon that wording - she delivers her job with stunning perfection.
Thinking about "Burn" I am not sure Sina is that "wild crazy" as it appears. I'd reckon she is in perfect control of herself and her playing for all of those great 6 min 5 sec.
Excellent! Sina,you make my Fridays! Thank you!☺
It's nice to be able to not just see a great drummer playing an excellent song, but be able to feel it as well. Excellent job Sina! and hats off to who ever is mixing this.. the balance of your drums and the track was perfect!
Your versatility is amazing. I don't think there is any style you can't play.
Glad to see Sina doing some Steely Dan,great band from the 70’s.
Smooth as silk...
Very impressive. I didn't start in on playing along to Steely Dan til my early twenties.
Dam i could watch her for hours on end. Thanks Sina , Steely is my favorite band of all time. Drum on girl!
Sina, you have introduced me to a great musician whose work I knew, but whose name I did not. I've now watched two different videos of Mr. Purdie. What an amazing guy! He's worked with all of the greats in the last half century, from Aretha to Steely Dan to You-name-it -- has appeared on over four *thousand* albums -- whew! The Purdie Shuffle originated with him, then passed through Bonham to Porcaro, with each of those great drummers adding his own unique spin to it. I love the way Purdie can almost effortlessly cook along even while chatting to his audience, morphing from one mood and style to another without missing a beat. "Always know where the ONE is." Amazing.
I was inspired to check back into my Steely Dan records to figure out which cuts he played on (besides this one) and was astonished to see how many legendary drummers they used: Purdie, Porcaro, Gadd, Keltner... sometimes all on the same record! I suppose they chose the one whose style best fit the particular song. I can imagine every great rock musician wanted to play with Becker and Fagan, a bit like every actor in Hollywood wanted to play a murderer on "Columbo". It says something that they usually listed the drummer first in the credits for a song.
Anyhow, thank you Sina for your great performances, and also for the musical education. I've been learning so much about drumming and drummers (and, not coincidentally, coming up with a lot of new questions as a result). It's nice to know my old brain isn't quite fossilized yet.
Very cool song, and well done Sina! I've always liked steely dan..Thank you for all your song covers as I see you have many others for me to enjoy. Great stuff here! You have a new fan.
How nice!! Thanks and welcome :)
I'm not going to say too much cuz i probably always do run on too long.. After lasts weeks "Burn", I needed a break anyway. Last week you proved to me and mad led me to realize that I'm watching the best drummer I've ever seen in my long life, male or female.. Yes you will say poo poo no way but I speak my opinion. So its a pleasure to watch anything you bring.
This was a nice easy break, even relaxing Steely Dan song, I could sit in my rocking chair on the porch for this one. Last week i as at the edge of my seat in total disbelief and awe of you, Sina, you are so correct about your music. You like to mix it up and show us you can play any genre. Anyone has to be be impressed with your resume'. You would compliment any band on Earth. But I love that you don't let your fans get struck in rut. You expose us to everything like any true artist. (hint, one of many reasons I support you) I also love your charm and modesty. Your shyness is becoming. What is there not to like about you. Nicely down
and congratulations on the massive views on "Burn" young lady.... but for this week, I enjoyed this very much.. Thank you Sina.
Frank Brown
Yes Frank, I'm guessing after her seeing comments of many of us being put in shock, especially me she had to bring us back to a state of calm.
Sina did a great job and I love Steely Dan. Your comments are so right. Have a great weekend!
Dave, thank you for your kind words. You also have a great weekend
You got the groove right from the first beat on this one. Sweet!
Hi again, from Phoenix, AZ! Enjoying as always! Steely Dan has always been one of my very favorites, and this song is perfect for the occasion here, because I'm "HOME AT LAST" (from traveling for more than a week)! :)
JazzTruckin How you enjoying this Phoenix weather?
Just wanted to compliment your taste in music.
Steely Dan's been my go to group, since back in the early 70's.
Could easily say they are my all time favorites. Never get tired of listening to them.
Sina plays drums like a seasoned professional. Classy.
Hey David! Yes, I love it here in Phoenix, but I'm a desert rat! It was over 110°F just last week when my plane came in. Yes I LOVE Steely Dan, I was raised on this music, and can't get tired of it. The day I do is when God should make a decision. :) Thank you for asking, and thank you again to Sina for continuing to improvise on great classics!
JazzTrucking.
I also live in Phoenix. 19th. Ave. & Osborn area.
I have a dog that whines to go out...every 2-3 hours during the day. Last trip it felt like the sun was sitting on my shoulders. I'm glad I didn't fall down with a heat stroke.
Awesome Purdy shuffle
Liked before watch ... Always !
You are so respectful of the drummers that you cover and their styles. Great job.
One of my favorite Steely Dan songs. Thanks Sina!
Cool. Thats one of those songs that sounds simple but if youre off at all it really shows.
THE RHYTHM CAN NOT BE BELIEVED.IT IS INCREASINGLY SURPRISING..UNMATCHED SINA!!
Effortlessly superb...one of my all time Steely Dan’s song...Sweet!
Hi Sina, Just finished listening to and watching your cover of "HOME AT LAST" (STEELY DAN). Really, Really smooth!!! When I first found your channel and did the research on you, you said that you love all kinds of music and it shows!! You played this with as much soul and feeling as the original composer!! I have to confess, I never stop finding new signs of just how talented you really are!! Every new or old selection you have covered that I've managed to find leaves me in total amazement!! So much so that I have to replay each and every one over and over so I can pick-up on each and every move!!!Each and every day I pull up your channel and scroll and scroll until I find something I haven't heard or seen before and usually never disappointed! I've even directed my kids to play some of the originals you have composed at my wake & funeral. That's how much I love them!!! I know this comment is a bit lengthy but I guess I'm just a little worried about you going on tour. "PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOU!!" "LOVE YA"
A great way to ease into a Saturday and begin a weekend with the talented and beautiful Sina…...Thanks for sharing and making it more of a wonderful day...
I feel you on the real music you talk about this is what I grew up listening to real instruments. My dad was a big audiophile he spent thousands to get the best sound possible. You all make great music and are very talented.
You play the drums like a boss 🤠🤘😎😎😎😎🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟extra cooool 👍👍👍
Nailing that Purdie shuffle!
Sina, you definitely are “A” drum player
Sina in a "jazzy" mode great!
Totally feeling this groove.. Yeah.
Sina, I am so glad you chose this song! Not as well known as some of the Steely Dan songs but one that I have always enjoyed. Wonderful and fitting tribute to Bernard Purdie and the band!! I have an old friend whom I have lost track of over the years. He used to do some production work for Steely Dan. Seeing this today motivates me to try harder to make contact with him. He would absolutely love this!! Great Job and thanks for leading me into yet another weekend with a smile on my face!!!
As always, great job. Sina, you never stop surprising me with new styles and types of music you cover. Very impressed. Can't wait for next weeks..
I love too much this song and particularity I like the Jazz and funk sound in the drums. I love your drum cover. I really love it.
Bravo Sina, it's very nice and..sublime. I love the groove! I take this opportunity to thank you too late for "Burn" and "Forty Six and Two!"
Every beat is in the pocket. Great work, keep it up.
As a long time guitar player who recently got a drum set and is learning the basics of it and also really into this tune I have to say I am blown away by this performance, youre amazing!
I didn't want it to stop either Sina. Impeccable taste.
Sina you are not only the best drummer player of these moment but you are also a BEAUTIFUL yong woman.
I sincerely respect and honor your reply. I am of German descent but have never lived there to experience how cold your winter is. We are almost in mid-winter here in SA and we are experiencing min of 6C and max of 25C. The worst we get here is min -4C in winter. Hence my term for 'heaters' was intended to imply these little portable plug-in oil fin units that WE use to place in the area that we are utilising when we require some warmth before climbing into bed. Please excuse my ignorance of circumstances there, and we will enjoy the casual barefoot look during your summer time. I wish to assume that the more frequent barefoot approach we see lately was influenced a little by our comments - thank you. Much appreciated. Sina is a talented and lovely child and we wish her only the best of care, much love and every success. Always. d
Thank you so much Sina! I watch all your stuff but am a huge Steely Dan fan so I appreciate your home at last cover...sooo good!:)
Classic band, classic song, classic drummer!! Very nicely done!!!
Just did a photo shoot of Steely Dan & the Doobie Bros. concert on Tuesday! To me, you are as good as anything I heard there. Thank you for sharing one of your favorites. I, for one, really appreciate all the hard work and effort you put into your performances.
Love your drum cover of this wonderful Dan song! RIP Walter Becker.
Duh-amn, Sina. Is there anything you can't play? ;) You're awesome. Thank you for sharing your talent with the rest of us.
Awesome cover. So fluid. Donald Fagan, im sure is proud
Hold my glass, very good Sina!
Very nice pace on this... beautiful beautiful
