Damn! Anyone who can play that LinnDrum pattern from 777-9311 has my respect. Lots of people do a faulty version of it but the Queen has it down perfectly! Incredible!
Hello PQ, You are an incredibly musician. 777-9311 Is actually a stock drum beat that came in the LM 1 Linn Drum Machine ($4000 )The beat was programmed by Tower Of Power’s drummer David Garibaldi for Roger Linn who’s a guitar player. Hope this helps. LovePeace, Jesse Johnson
Brother Jesse, just want to say thanks for all the great music you've given us over the years. I still rock your 80's classics all "The Time." I also enjoyed the work you did with D'Angelo in recent years. Keep slaying that ax, brother. You are among my personal favorites with Hendrix, Prince, Eddie Hazel, BB King, Ernie Isley, etc. Salute to you. ✊🏽
*777" was programmed into the Linn prototype by David Garibaldi of Tower of Power. That prototype was given personally to Prince. Prince took that preset, added a clap and tweaked the hi-hats some and used it for the basis of "777" while writing the album for the Time.
@@NotYourTypicalNegro I have heard that, too, but I know that my sources were not the ones who would know that first hand - so I am still calling this a rumour/one possible origin story, until someone who was present at the scene gives testimony - would you have a link to an interview or such? Appreciated!
His info is correct except Prince didn't change the hi hat pattern at all. It's the stock pattern you hear in the song. He did add the handclaps though.
Great drummer & from what I hear a lovely person. Songs: 1. Aja - Steely Dan - [Aja] - not for the obvious solo stuff by Steve, but the overall feel/groove & particularly for the dynamics which so many drummers have no concept of 2. Third Wind - Pat Metheny - [Still Life Talking] - Paul Wertico just makes this bounce along, almost effortlessly (though it's obviously not!) 3. Says - Al Jarreau - [Lis for Lover} - Steve Ferrone showing how to make something funky essentially with hh/snare/bd. The syncopation is just magic. 4. Fred - Tony Williams - [Believe It] - a great example of fusion playing (from 1975). Tony's ability to take 60's jazz sensibilities & apply them to a rock setting - my goodness! 5. Frenchman's Flat - Larry Carlton - [Sleepwalk] - Jeff Porcaro's shuffle beats are unparalleled (as we know from 'Rosanna'). This is a doozie. (Can I add a 6? - well, hell, I'm going to!) 6. Blame it on my youth - Keith Jarrett - [The Cure] - Jack DeJohnette proves the Pocket Queen's point that drummers aren't just timekeepers, they're composers, integral to the piece. Jack does so little in many ways but it's vital to the overall feel/sonic soundscape & it's just wonderful. The space he leaves for everything else to happen is an art - one I try to replicate when doing similar jazz gigs & as my mother would say "light & shade" - meaning dynamics - couldn't be better illustrated here.
Keep on Growing (Jim Gordon, Derek and the Dominos), Dead on Time (Roger Taylor, Queen), For Your Precious Love (Al Jackson, Otis Redding), Holy Diver (Vinny Appice, Dio), Mushanga (Jeff Porcaro, Toto)
My favorite drum beats are Good to your Earhole (Funkadelic), Do that Stuff (Parliament). What about it (Eddie Hazel) Soulmate(Funkadelic) I've been watchin' you (Parliament). I have many others but I just mentioned these because I would take up the page. You go GIRL!!!
Great clip! 5 songs that heavily influenced my drumming over the years: "Knocks Me Off My Feet" - Stevie Wonder "Do It Again" - Steely Dan "Wishing Well" - Bob Mould "Fallen Angel" - Robbie Robertson "Mandjou" - Salif Keita And "Clockworks" by Meshuggah. Not that I'll ever be able to play along. :)
My favourite drum beats are: 1. Herbie Hancock - Actual Proof 2. The Police - Driven to tears 3. Led Zeppelin - Fool in the rain 4. James Brown - Funky Drummer 5. Tool - Schism
Great choices! My faves are: "All Over You" - Live "Don't Stay Home" or "All Mixed Up" - 311 "Minute by Minute" Doobie Brothers or "Misunderstanding" by Genesis "Cerulean" - The Ocean Blue "Lovers in a Dangerous Time" -Bruce Cockburn Bonus: "Like the Weather" By 10,000 Maniacs "Satellite" by Dave Matthews Band "Hello Goodbye" by the Beatles "All This Time" Sting or Vinnie C's performance on "Fields of Gold" by Sting. It's all rim clicks but is just too tasteful and understated just enough but not too much by a guy who could play more but didn't, ya know? lol..
Good chops pocket Queen im 64 years old and I was playing that song 77 9311 back then that beat really take time for all you new drummers if it is to easy for you its not helping you
Beautiful! Well Spoken and good communicator! Just a nice personality! A great and perceptive musician! Total Package! (Did I mention Beautiful!?! Looking forward to watching and listening to your future!
Ok, now I can't let one day without listening to What A Fool Believes... incredibile everything, starting from the drums and the bass line, higher level of craftsmanship!
This was really great to watch! Had to be a NOLA girl to know anything about The Meters. Be My Lady is my favorite cut. Be Blessed Pocket Queen and keep drumming!!!
Good Times Bad Times changed my entire life as a kid. I heard it and NEVER thought I’d be able to get my bass drum foot that fast, let alone play the song in its entirety. Zeppelin and Bonham really lay the foundation for tasteful chops and a solid groove.
1. Rosanna - Toto 2. Slither - Velvet Revolver 3. Roxanne - The Police 4. Burning for you - Blue Oyster Cult 5. Shine - Collective Soul These are just a few for musicians at any given point there's probably thousands of points on inspiration.
Copeland, while I have a completely different style than he does, really opened my eyes to how important the hi hat is. It's the constant, and it can add or release drama at any point in the phrase. O My God from Synchronicity is another great one to listen to for understanding why the hats aren't just a timekeeping throwaway device.
Carter Beaufort is an absolute beast as is Zigaboo...as a drummer when I learn 777-9311, I’ll feel I’ve arrived. I also love John Blackwell & Michael Bland of Prince & The NPG, John Bonham, Al Jackson, Jr. & Stewart Copeland POCKET QUEEN YOU ROCK!!!
Not to take away from the Pocket Queen, check out Lil John Roberts breaks down 777 (youtube)....I didnt realize how complicated it was , I was just grooving to the tune. But yeah, hats off to Jelly Bean (of the Time). Love you Queen, you rock!!
Say What - Trouble Funk Positivity - Prince Fat bottom Girls - Queen Every little things she does is magic - The Police The message- GrandMaster Flash& The Furious Five
It takes an open mind to draw from every corner. I'm a guitarist, but for me Bill Bruford and Dennis Davis *changed my life* What a Fool Believes is so goddamn sneaky.
Stewart Copeland, the Police Drummer was amazing!! I don't know how he is not ranked up there with one of the top 10 drummers of all time? Voice in my head was an example of Stewart's drum excellence!!
Pocket Queen you're awsome! I am a piano/ keyboard player but I Absolutely love the drums. One of my all time favorite drum beats is to the song "Yes We Can Can" by the Pointer Sisters. This song was released some time in the early to mid 70' s not sure exactly what year.an arranged by your fellow New Orleans man the late great Alvin Toussaint.
There are too many songs that are masterpieces of art on the drums, from the rock genre I’m familiar with: Phil Collins, Bonham , Will Calhoun, Stuart Copeland, and even underrated drummers like Trey Cool, the guy from Huey Lewis, Ira Elliott from Nada Surf, Alex van Halen, Gavin Harrison, Kenny Aronoff, are all examples of drummers as musicians’ musicians. And then you see this channel and discover one phenomenal drummer after another. Let’s not forget Yoyoka!
Was pleased to see a couple songs here that I have been influenced by and consistently come back to visit...What A Fool Believes and Message In A Bottle. Excellent playing...great video. Thanks.
Love how you approach and appreciate the music also the message in the bottle was spot on ...love that type of drumming that a lot of these TH-cam followers like to call overplaying...instead you seen the gradual build into something awsome...also the laying the bed down for guitar players and so on ...really enjoyed your video and your lingo...!!!!

Great clip and awesome songs to work on. I'm a huge Carter Beauford and Copeland fan. Their approach to each dong are almost otherworldly in their interpretation, composition and willingness to adjust. I worked for hours upon hours on Message In A Bottle for a cover band I was in and it quickly became one of my favorite songs to play.
purdie shuffle the most influential drum groove, and i'm suprised she never said Tower of Power drummer Garibaldi. What is hip has one of the most influential drum patterns as well.
Well said, demonstrated and yo feel is undeniable and I have been playing pro for 30+ yrs my only regret was the lack of support at 10 when i started so im pretty much self taught re-learning the importance of practicing to a metronome and creating the solid pocket timing b/c I play and sing/rap at the same time...keep doin yo thang PQ!
Happy to say all of those are favorites of mine...and all on my ipod except for the Police joint. I'll go check it out. Also, after enjoying your videos for a while now, it brought me great joy to find you are a "New Orleans girl." I'm a New Orleans boy. You represent us well. Lastly, can we get a video of you playing some classic Funkadelic...or Stevie Wonder?!

That's serious gourmet shit !
Excellent selections for sho!
Cissy Strut is the song that got me into funk. First time I listened to it I could'nt believe how catchy it was.
It's the song that made me ask my dad for a drum set. I got to tell Ziggy this and he was grateful, humble and touched by my comment.
I love this young lady's talent and dedication to her craft!!!
That was so tasty, my mom asked for the recipe. Holy shit, that was fun to watch.

Jesse Johnson Thanks JJ for sharing your insider knowledge with us, 9311 is simply THE jam, and I’ve always been fascinated by that groove.
Brother Jesse, just want to say thanks for all the great music you've given us over the years. I still rock your 80's classics all "The Time."

Thats for being Awesome and collaborating with so many legends! Lil' Red Corvette was the first single I bought in 1982!

@@rickyqueen2621 everybody knows this. This is common knowledge. In fact, I heard Jesse Johnson talking about this in an interview.
Wow, great info.

5. Frenchman's Flat - Larry Carlton - [Sleepwalk] - Jeff Porcaro's shuffle beats are unparalleled (as we know from 'Rosanna'). This is a doozie.
(Can I add a 6? - well, hell, I'm going to!)

please invite more drummers for this question! Very nice!
Keep on Growing (Jim Gordon, Derek and the Dominos), Dead on Time (Roger Taylor, Queen), For Your Precious Love (Al Jackson, Otis Redding), Holy Diver (Vinny Appice, Dio), Mushanga (Jeff Porcaro, Toto)
My favorite drum beats are Good to your Earhole (Funkadelic), Do that Stuff (Parliament). What about it (Eddie Hazel) Soulmate(Funkadelic) I've been watchin' you (Parliament).

holy shit, what a drummer. and what a speaker!
She is 30 years old at least now. Not a kid anymore, she nows soft skills will take her where her craft will not.
You are a inspiration to all drummers in the music world! I really love listening to your music. You are a professional.
Fool in the rain- JHB
When the levy breaks-JHB
Whole lotta love- JHB
H. - Danny Carey
In the air tonight- Phil Collins
That song does not represent Phil’s drumming abilities.
“Thrust” - Herbie Hancock. Changed my life.
"I Got The News" Steely Dan
You like white drummers eh? 😆✌🏽
6:27 YESSSSSSSSSssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh~~~~
Taylor Gordon is simply THE best new drummer to hit ANY scene in a couple of decades!
Great sounding hihats! Also the playing on its very tight. Very nice choice of songs
Oh my God! The sound of those drum's coupled with her playing is just beautiful.
Mattie Mclean it's a Tama
@@tonikfoury1304 I wasnt asking but thanks
all good but for me the bass drum is too compressed
She broke down 7779311 in four hours. Shit it took me several day to perfect that groove. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great choices! My faves are:
"All Over You" - Live
"Don't Stay Home" or "All Mixed Up" - 311
"Minute by Minute" Doobie Brothers or "Misunderstanding" by Genesis

Bonus:
"Like the Weather" By 10,000 Maniacs
"Satellite" by Dave Matthews Band
"Hello Goodbye" by the Beatles
"All This Time" Sting or Vinnie C's performance on "Fields of Gold" by Sting. It's all rim clicks but is just too tasteful and understated just enough but not too much by a guy who could play more but didn't, ya know? lol..
Good chops pocket Queen im 64 years old and I was playing that song 77 9311 back then that beat really take time for all you new drummers if it is to easy for you its not helping you
That groove takes A WHILE to get right

She adds flavor to very simple grooves 🥁
love the drumming, the upbeat personality... and that gorgeous smile

This was really great to watch! Had to be a NOLA girl to know anything about The Meters. Be My Lady is my favorite cut. Be Blessed Pocket Queen and keep drumming!!!
I've always liked that 777-9311 song. The drums stood out to me while listening to that as a kid.
It was a drum machine.
Green Day’s basket case got me drumming ☺️
Héctor C. Green Day started it all for me too :) drums and guitar
She has this amazing hold on the subtleties of the feel of the best. Love that, super important reminder there for every drummer.
Good Times Bad Times changed my entire life as a kid. I heard it and NEVER thought I’d be able to get my bass drum foot that fast, let alone play the song in its entirety. Zeppelin and Bonham really lay the foundation for tasteful chops and a solid groove.
777-9311. Yes ma'am, press ham! One of the coolest grooves ever. Jimmy Johnson on the guitar.
1. Rosanna - Toto
2. Slither - Velvet Revolver
3. Roxanne - The Police
4. Burning for you - Blue Oyster Cult
5. Shine - Collective Soul
These are just a few for musicians at any given point there's probably thousands of points on inspiration.

O My God from Synchronicity is another great one to listen to for understanding why the hats aren't just a timekeeping throwaway device.
Funky Monks was my intro to Funk music and it really blew my mind
Most influential for me:
When the Leve Breaks/Fool in the Rain, Rosanna, Ants Marching/#41, SLTS/In Bloom, Message in a Bottle, Stash (Phish).
Carter Beaufort is an absolute beast as is Zigaboo...as a drummer when I learn 777-9311, I’ll feel I’ve arrived. I also love John Blackwell & Michael Bland of Prince & The NPG, John Bonham, Al Jackson, Jr. & Stewart Copeland POCKET QUEEN YOU ROCK!!!
That first groove actually sounded like Harvey Mason from Herbie Hancock's album Chameleon
She is very articulate, and I loved the examples that she brought out. Excellent vid - thanks for posting!
great to see your passion for your craft! we can all learn from that! God'd love and blessings!!!
Cissy Strut is top 5 catchiest song ever played. How can you not bob your head to it

Wow I never knew it as the 777 beat, for me it was the 2pac what's ya fone numba beat! 😊👍🏽
Love the pocket queen! Its all about the groove!
The sixteen counts felt internal is the heartbeat of any groove.

Sean Bean YOU KIDDING MAN REALLY DENNIS DAVIS WAS ( R I P ) AND STILL IS THE MAN I WORKOUT WITH HIS RECORDINGS WITH ROY AYERS

the smiling queen!
Shout out to Beauford, hells yeah!
12:09
That beat from Message in a bottle is also the beat from Whip it. 😆😆
she's absolutely amazing but that aint the cissy strut beat, if you dont have the doubles on the kick it just doesn't have the right swing
She didnt play the high hat accents. I feel like didnt didnt swing enough either. Thats said, she's a good player..
@@michaelfinley4440 let me hear your take. Also check her out now, she is one the best drummers in the world. ✌🏽
On my practice playlist. I love the entire concept of pocket.
Pocket Queen you're awsome! I am a piano/ keyboard player but I Absolutely love the drums. One of my all time favorite drum beats is to the song "Yes We Can Can" by the Pointer Sisters.

Tetheorance Gordon thank you for your imput
She loves all genres? That’s awesome that she loves deathcore!!!
The Time was executed, BEAUTIFULLY!!!
11:00. Yep. Sting would attest to the constant push pull in the band :). S Copeland is/was a master technician.

This was an awesome video. Definitely need to listen to some of them. a few songs that inspire me are roxanne- police, ants-marching- Dave Mathews band, All the small things- Blink 182,
Amazing! Love the sound of your kit!
I love pocket queens attitude as always she has stucksmile. 😊 great back story too.
With her rhythm and soul I’ll bet she’s excellent dancer as well💃🏿
Interviewer didnt know any of that music. I love this chick sooo much.
Listen to very very well skilled drummer based in London that’s goes by the name of Dare bodunrin, he is so good.
The decay on that snare is just delicious
you have a beautiful drum set and I just love your shiny symbols I'm in Lubbock Texas
Great clip and awesome songs to work on. I'm a huge Carter Beauford and Copeland fan. Their approach to each dong are almost otherworldly in their interpretation, composition and willingness to adjust. I worked for hours upon hours on Message In A Bottle for a cover band I was in and it quickly became one of my favorite songs to play.
You have to change your approach to each dong, agreed.
the tone of that floor tom is beyond great...
She definitely knows how to tune those heads! The snare, toms and even the kick are perfectly tuned.
You are awesome, I love your energy and your musical gift. Keep up the good work.
As a bass player I just wanted to be in the room and jam with her at every track. God she's clean!
Definitely a video to jam along to.
She is very good. Awesome basic timing,
purdie shuffle the most influential drum groove, and i'm suprised she never said Tower of Power drummer Garibaldi. What is hip has one of the most influential drum patterns as well.
Love her, but wasn’t into her tracks until she reached 777 9311, and Stewart Copeland from police is one of my favorite drummers
Her timing is infectious. Funny how a metronome is just boring but a few people have the ability to make a simple groove sing.
Metronomes are so groovy ;)
Well said, demonstrated and yo feel is undeniable and I have been playing pro for 30+ yrs my only regret was the lack of support at 10 when i started so im pretty much self taught re-learning the importance of practicing to a metronome and creating the solid pocket timing b/c I play and sing/rap at the same time...keep doin yo thang PQ!
sonny emory and lenny white are my main influences for drumming
david garibaldi did programming for 777-9311
she is sooo sick i'm vibin with her as a drummer
Beautiful, loved it, cheers
Great teacher, drummer and person!!
Thanks for sharing!
Happy to say all of those are favorites of mine...and all on my ipod except for the Police joint. I'll go check it out.
Also, after enjoying your videos for a while now, it brought me great joy to find you are a "New Orleans girl." I'm a New Orleans boy. You represent us well.
