I can spend hours listening to Jeff Porcaro playing drums. He was a master! He could play every type of music, pop, soft rock, jazz. He was famous for his half shuffel drum. He will ever be a legend. The best drummer I had the chance to play in live.
@@julianc.6589I would say that Jeff grooves better than Vinnie, but Vinnie’s chops are certainly legendary. Overall, Vinnie might be better, but if it’s a groove, I’ll take Jeff, Steve Gadd, or Steve Jordan everyday.
@@spencergsmith Exactly! Vinnie is SUPER technical, and I LOVE it, though all of those odd time sigs ("Seven Days" etc) have their place, as does a simple groove. Not cutting wither drummer down, and I love both.
How can anyone not love this guy??? What feel for the groove and the pocket. Spot on jeff. PS: I hope when we're all reunited one day with our loved ones I get to finally meet Jeff in the after life and tell him how much I enjoyed every swing of the stick he performed... and then I hope we can play drums together for a tune or two.
@@hp2823 Bernard was like a second father or uncle to Jeff. He sat right behind him night after night as a child and growing drummer. Way more going on here than dotted eights and sixteenths my friend.
@@chrisosborne7945 of course there is way more going on here, trust me ive dissected this groove for hours on the kit. theres intracacies like opening the hi hat on the "a" and ghosted notes on the snaere on the "e" but the voicing on the hi hat is a swung "1 n a" Purdie shuffle is a half time triplet feel. this is just an incredibly swung eight and sixteenth note feel.
Hmm sure looks like a pearl hi end kit with finished inside shells ... a lot of drum forum scuttle that he only played gretsch and hardly ever used the drums he endorsed, even though he almost always on a yamaha 9000 or a pearl mlx kit in footage of him playing.. the guy could play a garbage can and kill it ... the best pocket i e ever heard is this guys time
I was expecting him to do a Blakey shuffle or something considering the excerpt is called a “jazz shuffle” (which mind you, he probably could play that, it’s Jeff Porcaro for christs sake) but nevertheless, the pocket is so deep it’s in his shoes!
Great memories.... I actually made up that song on the spot for Jeff to demonstrate that groove!!
lucky ass,nice job !
the keyboard is worthy here.
@@julientardan9188 thank you..
This is legit my favorite educational drumming DVD! Such great playing all around!
@David.Garfield Thank you for your contribution to this masterful video, I watch it all the time. Creature Stomp is Badass.
dude whata groove
Thanks for posting. This is my favorite part of Jeff's instructional video. It's so cool no matter how many times I watch it!

Being a professional acoustic drummer for many moons Jeff Porcaro was and always be my favorite drummer and Toto my favorite band.😊
The power of his snare drum and his left hand is amazing. Little motion but so powerful!!
The best groove drummer, by far. The proof is right here-!!! ❤
dude is up there with Vinnie Colaiuta

Forget the rest, I hope he's up 24/7 jammin and rockin out!!!
as a drummer, I can say this is perfection.all dynamics and intervals are simply perfect.
He plays this groove in Pamela... so so smooth. I could listen to it isolated endlessly!
Grazie Maestro,ancora oggi siamo qua ad ascoltarti e ad imparare ❤
it's sad to think of how many more wonderful drum parts we have missed out on losing Jeff so young.
He was getting better - his playing seemed to evolve as time went on. When I heard "Jake to the Bone" - that was pinnacle
so crisp, so clean, so smooth
A methronome with a feeling. That's what Jeff P. was!
The feel!!

Not sure you wanna hang your hat on that hope mi amigo.
私のフィルインの原型はすべてジェフのものからもらいました。素晴らしいのです。グルーヴ、ボーカルを後押しするタイム感、やはり天才すぎるのです。
Jeez, I could just watch him play all day. Simply terrific musician!
Great 2002’s sound!
one of rock drumming's favorite sons.
Definitely a genius, a legend. Toto still streams a ton from songs that hit back in the day.
A great drummer, a genius is a bit exaggerated.
That groove is not very difficult.
@@stevemiller1517 Yeah but I like them.
@@stevemiller1517 Making it sound like that is not trivial. This ain’t Guitar Hero
Jeff Porcaro also luvs Paiste 😎
Such talent. Miss you so much
Mitico!!! 🌟🌟🌟
🎼JEFFPORCAROFOREVER🥁🥇❤️🔥
Oh my lord !!! ❤❤❤
When he starts into that ride cymbal and those hi-hat hits around the 0:47 mark-oof!!
The only thing more delicious than Jeff's playing are his hihats.
Smooth
Master
Aja drums took me here.
Come faceva "camminare" la batteria lui, nessun altro mai.....R.I.P. Jeff
Come faceva vedere la batteria molto facile ! leggenda !!!
RIP JP
did he use all 2002's ?
Master
Toto didn't need a metronome, Jeff was it
Metronomes need Jeff
Another variation of the Perdie shuffle. Thanks again Bernard
not really this isnt half time. and its just swung dotted eights and sixteenths

God he had pocket.❤
Can spot a similar pattern in "Pamela"
Porcaro fue mi mentor y el nunca lo sabrá .
Well this is story how my life got turned up side down
And THAT is how you hit a snare drum.

なぜスネアのゴーストノートがハイハットの音と同じになるんでしょう？
Dafür,dass er shuffles gehasst hat,spielt er ihn gut🤪🙏😊
Pamela...
What kind a cymbals? 🤣
?????????????????
John Bonham did it first.
Purdey was first to be fair.
@@wannabeadrummer
I should have said Bonham did it before Porcaro 😉 But you're right.
Pocaro is just so smooth, probably the smoothest of all 3😊
Porcaro, bloody spell check 😊
@@wannabeadrummer
A drummer can be *too* smooth.

In the original instructional video they or him called this a jazz shuffle 🤷🏻♂️
He's great, but I'm not hearing any jazz here.
Man is a repost video the original video title put jazz shufle i put what the original video say
I even hear a little Dave Grohl in there 🍻
Dave Grohl??? He's garage band stuff!
Effortless
XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
A) That isn't Jazz b) That isn't a shuffle
Hahahahaha you are? See the original video of him and say jazz shuffle
A.) You're wrong. B.) You're wrong again.
half time shuffle
@@themole2024 sounds like straight 16ths to me ...
