I was lucky to see them both live. Roys 4 concerts were a long time ago, Marcus's concerts were 6 and 5 years ago. In my opinion they are both geniuses on their instruments. Very different styles, there is no way to compare those two.
Great video, thanks! Roy Haynes is the most important living jazz musician on ANY instrument. No one can approach his resume. When I was a kid, I was a rocker, but there were no rock magazines, I used to look at Downbeat at the library, and even though I didn't play jazz, my first drum set was a Ludwig Jazzette because Roy was so damn cool! One more story: I saw Roy at Yoshi's and he was playing a backline kit with his own cymbals. He wasn't feeling that happy with the drums (even though he sounded great) He was talking to the audience and hit the drums a few times and said "That's not Haynes" Then he played the flat ride and said "That is Haynes!" He also remembered coming down to Jack London Square on the trolly with Billy Holiday!
Quincy, I'm such an idiot, right at the beginning when you were talking about Marcus and said: "....who is fifty, no sixty..." and I thought: "years old? Daaaaaaimn, not only is he the baddest cat out there, but he also looks amazing. LOL. I love your lessons; I learn so much from you. I love Marcus's "ruffs" and I think I just heard Roy do one or two there that now make sense....like grandfather, like grandson.
Marcus has Roy’s approach and feel, but remains true to himself - a wonderful player… I was fortunate to see Roy in 1966 in London when he toured Europe with the Stan Getz Quartet (Gary Burton and Steve Swallow). Man, that was something… Thanks, as always, for posting this inspirational content, Quincy…😎
Killer video! There's a video with Chick Corea explaining that flat cymbal thing on YT ! I have my own 18" K Flat and I love it!!! And man, Humpty Dumpty! I love that tune and Marcus Playing!
Very Moving great again Maestro Quincy . What the Great Roy & Marcus does is the beautiful textual things . I’ve seen Marcus in other clips doing lots of rim clicks etc . So great . The greats did it & Roy did it & did it & did it .. ❤️ btw just listened to Max soloing but also play time ride variations in his 4s etc . Heard that here 🆒 🙏.
I think the “lineage” in question from Roy to Marcus, besides the sonic choices, is the way in which rhythmic subdivisions are approached from the perspective of a continuum. Roy is more implicit and will imply certain meters but usually only when soloing, and sometimes when playing time, whereas Marcus seeks to be continually shifting meters. In that way, Marcus is more “explicit” in how he maps this continuum.
The trio album is actually called Now He Sings, Now He Sobs!! Great video btw, digging these reactions/analysis's. Both of these drummers are two of my favorite drummers of all time. Marcus (specifically with Chick and with Vijay) is so incredible
Outstanding!!! I had the thrill off seeing Roy when he was a youthful 80😄 A very memorable evening. This comparison is fantastic! So much to take in. Thank You again for the work you put in and knowledge you share. Happy New Year, Q!
Quincy Davis you've done it again !! I got introduced to Marcus Gilmore through Nate of the 80 20 drummer vlog. Roy was and is just legend and Marcus picks up the baton and takes it's to a whole other place. Just beautiful and thank you for another beautiful video. Feliz Navidad y Nuevo Año y Salud !!!
Hi Quincy, Marvelous video about this giants of our instrument. Great editing work as well. Your enthusiasm onaf your video's is awesome. I think Roy is playing a paradiddle 7.24 with that stick on stick situation. Greetings from the Netherlands!
Roy Haynes is probably my favorite old school jazz drummer bar Elvin and Tony, Marcus Gilmore more or less was how I began looking into modern jazz drumming and those guys are all nuts but hopefully I can play like that someday. Much love to you Q, happy new year 🎆
I noticed that you've been putting up the form of these tunes in your more recent videos (I dunno how recent, I've been operating on little sleep #parentlife). Anyway, putting up the form gives everything context--I wish everyone did that, regardless of instrument or pedagogy taught. The form markers make us aware of how figures setup a bridge, go back to the top, or even mark a 4-bar-phrase. The way the ride or bass drum is played also carves out the form, just like the way a pianist comps out chords and the bassist weaves a line help to mark the form. As a "non-drummer", just wanted to remark on how important showing the form is to everything you are covering with these drummers. Btw, I never knew that Marcus Gilmore and Roy Haynes were related :)
A very merry xmas and a happy new year to you and ur family quincy , that video was smokin , luv ur vids and ur passion u r an enigma, god bless u!!!!!!
Hi Q -- You are the best drum educator posting on TH-cam, imho. By the way, I think the album you called Matrix is "Now He Sings, Now He Sobs" with Roy and Miroslav. Matrix is a track on that album. This is the first recording of that trio that I'm aware of. Absolutely iconic desert island album! I particularly like the CD with the bonus tracks. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Now_He_Sings,_Now_He_Sobs
I would love to hear a video about what it is like teaching at a university, and even updates on how semesters wrap up/begin, etc, if that isn't a conflict of interests. I think it is a very interesting path for many people choosing the creative path.
Talent certainly runs deep in their family. Both amazing musicians. Unfortunately have never seen Roy live but have seen Marcus a couple of times with Vijay Iyer. Check out the video of Marcus playing on Vijay Iyer's Machine Days at the Bridgestone Music Festival.
Great video Quincy! For the next reaction video could you do Bill Stewart? He’s one of my big influences. There’s a clip of him playing a tune called Jive Coffee live at MD Festival in 1997.
I’m not sure if there is a video of this, and I know you already covered Brian Blade, but you should do spain from the trilogy album with Chick Corea and Christian Mccbride. That song gives me goose bumps everytime and he is so musical in the way he plays.
I think that stick trick is a fast ass single stroke triplet but it sounds almost like a 7 stroke roll. At least that's my take on it. Love to you Quincy.
I like to think of Humpty Dumpty as 6 + 4 + 8. The reason being, the 4 measure phrase is all on Bb-7 (and it's preceded by BbMA7 so you have that major to minor tension). If you listen to any of Chick's groups that play this tune, that's four measures where a soloist can go a bit "out" and when you get to the start of the 8 bar phrase (on D-7) it's a release of that tension. Such a brilliant tune but that form can be so deceiving and that's why I break it down the way I do. This is definitely a tune that drummers should understand the harmonic structure. There's a lot packed into a short form in this tune. One thing that helps greatly is that the last bar is just a classic ii - V (F-7 - Bb7#5) that leads back to the I (EbMA7) at the top of the form. Learn the theory, at least be functionally literate with it. It helps with being on the same page with the rest of the band when you understand where all the tension and release points are. This was a really good one Q. Show us that stick shot lick when you finally figure it out!!!
I still just think and hear of the tune in two halves. The Bb minor sounds more like the end of the first section opposed to a section of its on. Either way, important for everyone to hear the form and the harmonic tension and release. Thanks for sharing👍🏾
Thanks for your many fascinating and informative videos Quincy, which I find very useful and helpful. With respect though there's one thing that really detracts from them for me. I love your enthusiasm and passion, but those high-pitched 'woos' are really intrusive and grating. Would it be possible to be just as enthusiastic without them?

Roy Haynes! One of my favorite drummer! I listned to "Out of the Afternoon" so many times!
So great!!
Out of the Afternoon was the only record my Berklee teacher ever gave me. Hazilla
The classic Trio album from Chick Corea
is Now He Sings, Now He Sobs! First tune is Matrix
Oh yes! I think I called the album Matrix. My mistake. Hope all is well Klemens!

Roy Haynes is woooo an institution skills to thr outer galaxy!
Man, love the teacher in you!
we are jumping right in
Man, I can definitely hear the similarities between Marcus and his grandpa! Awesome stuff! Thank you.
2 of my favorite cats, Q!
The Marshall!! Mine too. Super heroes!! Hope all is well brother.
What a great idea this video is. Roy Haynes is my favorite drummer and Marcus carries the legacy of his grandfather. Thanks so much for this Quincy.
My pleasure!
I got to meet Roy Haynes at his gig. It was his 80th bday. I did not expect him to be so explosive at 80, holy crap I was blown away!
Marcus has Roy’s approach and feel, but remains true to himself - a wonderful player…
I was fortunate to see Roy in 1966 in London when he toured Europe with the Stan Getz Quartet (Gary Burton and Steve Swallow). Man, that was something…
Thanks, as always, for posting this inspirational content, Quincy…😎
Roy Haynes, along with Max Roach was one of the original funky drummers of the early modern jazz era
Killer video! There's a video with Chick Corea explaining that flat cymbal thing on YT ! I have my own 18" K Flat and I love it!!! And man, Humpty Dumpty! I love that tune and Marcus Playing!
You’re right! I forgot about that video of chick. Thanks for reminding me Joel.
Very Moving great again Maestro Quincy . What the Great Roy & Marcus does is the beautiful textual things . I’ve seen Marcus in other clips doing lots of rim clicks etc .
So great . The greats did it & Roy did it & did it & did it .. ❤️ btw just listened to Max soloing but also play time ride variations in his 4s etc . Heard that here 🆒 🙏.
Right on Jeffrey! And yes, Mr. Haynes definitely did it and did it and did it🤣🤣

This is simply amazing
Another impressive video with the Great Roy Haynes very nice man down to earth!
Absolutely Marcia!
Also, I love to Marcus play Latin team shoots rhythm s
The trio album is actually called Now He Sings, Now He Sobs!! Great video btw, digging these reactions/analysis's. Both of these drummers are two of my favorite drummers of all time. Marcus (specifically with Chick and with Vijay) is so incredible
Yup! I made mistake…AGAIN🤣🤣. Thanks for watching!
Fantastic great great players with amazing touch&feel completely in tune with the Master Chick❤️🥁
Outstanding love them both Marcus is my main man even just hitting the cymbal he's different than everybody great video Q
"We're talking about practice.... Not a game!" lol Go on! I practice, too.
Outstanding!!! I had the thrill off seeing Roy when he was a youthful 80😄 A very memorable evening. This comparison is fantastic! So much to take in. Thank You again for the work you put in and knowledge you share. Happy New Year, Q!
Right on Tom! Thanks as always!
My two favourite drummers 🔥 Such massive inspirations on my journey, cool that you have them both in a vid for us to listen to, Q!
Right on Chris Evans. Thanks as always for watching!
❤”this is what I look like when I practice.” ❤
🤣🤣🤣🤣
So good. Thanks for these clips & bridging the gap between the two 🎶👌🏽🥁🔥
The "Roy Haynes Samich"!
Much love Bud,
George
The way you say ‘yes sir’ is exactly the same as the way Tony Williams says it😂
I love Roy Haynes ( got much love for Q as well)! Check out “Out of the Afternoon” with Roland Kirk. It will blow your hair back.
Out of the Afternoon is the one for sure! Roy is unbelievable.
I learn so much from these videos. Did not know their relationship. Very cool.
Quincy Davis you've done it again !! I got introduced to Marcus Gilmore through Nate of the 80 20 drummer vlog. Roy was and is just legend and Marcus picks up the baton and takes it's to a whole other place. Just beautiful and thank you for another beautiful video. Feliz Navidad y Nuevo Año y Salud !!!
My pleasure Janet! Thanks for your comment and Felix Navidad y Nuevo Año y Salud to you too:)
@@drumqtips Hey Quincy, I forgot to mention my name is Ned. My wife Janet and I use the same account. Sorry for the confusion.

Glad that you appreciate that so much. Hopefully more folks appreciate how important and hopefully helpful that is. Thanks for sharing!
the Haynes, Chick, Vituos trio was amazing.

The record is, “Now He Sings, Now He Sobs”. “Matrix” is on the record. I’m a huge fan of your videos. Thanks for the great work.
Another good lesson ,, your playing is topps too ..

He’s definitely on the list Lucas
I have a flat ride for yearsssss
7 stroke roll, ending with a cross stick
Marcus to me, is like a hybrid of Roy Haynes and Jon Christensen with a modern touch. His playing is so so so deep.
yeaaaaaaaaaaaa
I’m not sure if there is a video of this, and I know you already covered Brian Blade, but you should do spain from the trilogy album with Chick Corea and Christian Mccbride. That song gives me goose bumps everytime and he is so musical in the way he plays.
I think that stick trick is a fast ass single stroke triplet but it sounds almost like a 7 stroke roll. At least that's my take on it. Love to you Quincy.
Yeah, I need to spend some time with that thang! I’ll check out the 7 stroke roll possibility. Thanks J:)
Never knew Chic played drums
I like to think of Humpty Dumpty as 6 + 4 + 8. The reason being, the 4 measure phrase is all on Bb-7 (and it's preceded by BbMA7 so you have that major to minor tension).

omg
Now he sings…. Now he sobs
Yes!!
OMGGGGG
Do you still hammer cymbals?
Yes for myself and my students only.
There is no sound to the video
There should be. Hope you figured it out Art!
Thanks for your many fascinating and informative videos Quincy, which I find very useful and helpful. With respect though there's one thing that really detracts from them for me.
