What's always impressed me about Steve Gadd's solos over this type of ostinato going on underneath is that he never loses his place...EVER! It's like he's internalized it to the point of them having to keep track of where HE'S going rather than the other way around. I just love hearing him solo over this kind of format. Great post. What day in April is his birthday anyone?
You look at how he moves at the kit now and compare that to video of him in the early 70s, there's almost no difference. Guy just cut the fro and dyed it a bit.
At 77, still has technique to equal absolutely anyone, BUT has taste beyond everyone! Still the ONE drummer who makes my heart and soul sing!!!
Dynamics, and space and silence in a drummer. Just amazing
This is a másterclass for all the choppers guys playing so fast without sense.
Maestro
Groovin like there's no tomorrow and givin' it his all. It doesn't get any better. Thanks Steve you still da man.
In Gadd I trust!
Can't wait to see what Steve's doing when he's 85! Go Steve. Gives me hope for the future...😀
his solo is different from the way he usually plays. it is refreshing

I did not expect that at 77.
以前本人に直接腕とか痛くならないのか？どうやって腕のメンテナンスしてるの？って聞いたら、筋肉を柔らかくしてウォームアップするんだよって教えてくれた。一時期日本の千年灸使ってたらしい。よく効くって本人のコメント。ミカさんのブログで読んだ。今はそのブログ見当たらないけど。
🤘😳🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
GADD =5***** AWESOME ALWAYS
78 in April and plays better than when he was 30. He’s insane lol
Steve's fingerprints are all over American recordings, and it's no surprise.
If Laboriel Sr. Is the grand father of bass, Steve is the grand dad of the drums
Nothing stuck in his Ears telling him what tempo he should be stuck on.
It was maybe in Japan with new joiners, Jeff babko and Carlton.
Yes!
Great band, who is playing bass ?
Travis Carlton
77 DRUMART BEAT
Really ?? 77 years old ?? I can't believe guys... Steve plays like he is 30 years old...
2 comments? Come on man!
That might be the best Steve Gadd live solo of all time!
Just unreal. The feel/groove is unmatched. Can think of so many standout performances by him, but yeah, this is definitely up there!
We don't know, if it's the best, unless we've heard all his solos, and no one has. It's an okay solo, but he has done it better.
Not as good as the solo from the lmage video from Rochester 1977
@@patricktiglao I don't recall having seen that one. Please post a link to the video. I'll take a look. Thanks.
His finesse and groove,come on now,so good

🙌🏾🙌🏾
I love his playing with regular grip. It makes great dynamics.
He's like a reincarnated Gene Krupa.
Gadd-like genius! Master of grooves, Latin influenced, jazz/rock brilliance. Should be in anyone’s top ten.
Goddamn that was tasty!
NoW These is how its done!!!
Beautiful solo! Amazing Gadd
musical af, never underestimate Mr. Gadd..
This is WoW ! 😮
Simply amazing.
EPIC! ❤️🌞🥁
Big One! ...different language...wow
Again reminded why he’s still my favorite drummer alive today. A one of a kind musician.
GOAT! Tasteful excellence!!
It's called Auto-Pilot! Way to go Steve!
Weer een mooie bijdrage over de groovemaster, Ruben.
