Besides the 'Like' button, is there a 'Gasp-for-Air' button?!!! Good lord, that was awesome!!!
I was looking for the "Holy Shit" button.
JB used to show up to my gig in Cardiff, CA in the late 1990s; he had just moved to California for a brief stay and was my neighbor, pretty much. He had the gig with Patti LaBelle and didn't have any drums and needed a kit. He called me up one day and said "I'm gonna go get a job at Toys R Us so I can make some $ to buy a kit". I said "man get over here and pick up a set, I've got three, so take my old Corder Drum Co. kit and bring it back when you don't need it anymore."
9 months go by and he finally calls me up and said he's bringing them back because he's moving. To Minneapolis, for obvious reasons.
JB was that cat who would drop your jaw on the floor, and always have something positive to say about your playing no matter how hard he melted your face. He made everyone feel gracious and welcome all the time.
I saw him shortly after his daughter had passed and it broke my heart to see how it affected him; he'd seemed to have blotted out the years prior to the accident. I chalked it up to "Before Jia" and "After Jia".
RIP my old friend.
What a beautiful soul he is 😢
Master ❤❤❤❤
Real people do real things 🫡🫡
May He and His Daughter Rest In Peace. The Drumming World Lost a Beautiful Person And a Marvelous Drummer. Rest in Paradise John.
💯
The ubiquitous bassist Mr. Will Lee! ❤
@@mikenelson8409I noticed him right away.
@pjfan173 The man is ALWAYS working! I remember back in 1982 The David Letterman show debuted along with "The world's most dangerous band" Will Lee was the bassist.
his daughter too 👀😩
absolutely ever single thing about that performance by John Blackwell
is sublime, and the other musicians are on fire, what a tight band for such complex music
My road dog, my little brother. Only your body is gone, your spirit live with us always
Unbelievable! One of the best drummers I've ever heard. So glad this was recorded and filmed!!!
I met him once backstage at a Prince concert, such a gentleman and great musician. God rest his soul and his family’s hearts.
I was stop breathing for 7 mins.! 😂
What a solo. RIP JB!!!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🫡🫡🫡
.... John Blackwell was truly given a gift from GOD to play the drums. Before the Lord Jesus called him to come home,
i'm glad i had the privilege to hear him
play. Rest in peace my dear brother.
Was he a Christian?
.... i don't know if John was a Christian,
but one can only hope that he was before he died.
JB plays the most insane fills and is still in pocket, that’s a gift from God!
This man forever changed my life as a kid! I still have his drum DVD’s my dad bought me in high school. He will truly be missed! God Bless you John! Also Rest In Paradise to another phenomenal drummer I discovered on drummer world back in the day, the late great Aaron Spears🙌❤️
John is playing drums in Heaven for his Maker. Rest Well Legend Blackwell 🎉🎉🎉🕊🕊🕊🙏🙏🙏
Embarrassed to say I never knew of this cat but 7 minutes later and I can say I do. World class, straight up.
Check out Prince's Rainbow Children album. He plays all the drums.
@@charlesdrake3125 I will thanks. This deserves deeper exploration.
Same here
Same here. I didn't know him u till this video today.
He toured with Cameo, too.
Monstrous player. Always crisp and powerful.
One of the best smoooooth jazz drummer of the world
My God words are not enough to explain this Man's talent, my heart was skipping through the whole performance and I couldn't stop hmm hmm watching this man perform. He is more than just the best. May his soul rest in perfect peace. Amen
His musical genius continues to inspire us and will impact generations to come!
His timing is so amazing to the point where you'd think he's freestyling but if you listen closer you can hear that it's an arranged piece. I loved every bit of this!!!
So sad he isn't with us anymore. Awesome drumming Mr. Blackwell, wherever you are.
He's in the common grave of mankind. Asleep, conscious of nothing at all as Ecclesiastes 9:5 says. Asleep in the grave awaiting the resurrection.
Praise Jehovah and his son Jesus Christ!
@@jpolls2332 Cor 5:8
We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord
Rest in Peace 🙏🙏🙏 Man... You were amazing!
John was that cat I only spoke to him a couple of times over the net and like you said a great attitude and respect he spoke as if he knew me may he RIP
I don’t play much these days but when I did sit behind the kit man did I want to sound like JB😢…Sometimes we’re strangely connected to people even if you’ve never met them 😊 Rest in power brother
Fabulous Drummer!!!Continue to rest peacefully. Tasteful, diverse, & flexible band. Thank you for leaving each of your footprints of Greatness!❤
Saw him with Prince twice. Man, was he a beast.
Also saw him with Prince and met him out in the hallway and he was so cool to us a great time
RIP buddy. I am blessed to have known you. ❤
My all time favorite drummer to watch/listen to. Met him and Abe Laboriel Jr at NAMM one year and I was in shock to meet them both just walking around. I didn’t know what to say after the initial greeting. He continued the conversation and made me feel comfortable asking how my day was. Very humble. I left just awe struck like what just happened
He is a beautiful soul.
Insanely talented drummer ! 😮
Man such a monster player, so sad RIP brother.
Love the five-piece set up. Don't see many people doing that anymore.

HI FAMILY,
PERSONALLY I NEVER MET MR. BLACKWELL, BUT I TRUELY ADMIRED HIS PASSION FOR MUSIC. THE MUSICAL GIFT HE RECEIVED FROM THE UNIVERSE WAS WELL DESERVED.
I CAN'T RECALL THE YEAR THAT I SEEN HIM ON TV, I DID NOT KNOW WHO HE WAS OR HIS NAME, ALL I KNEW IS THAT HE WAS ROGERS( PRINCE ) NELSONS DRUMMER. AND BRUMAN WAS ROLLING ON THOSE DRUMS.
MR. BLACKWELL DIDN'T PLAY WITH HIS GIFT, HE MADE GOD PROUD.
MR. JOHN BLACKWELL, YOU INSPIRED MANY YOUR WORK ETHIC WAS INPECABLE, JOB WELL DONE MY FRIEND.
YOUR UNIVERSAL FAMILY IS PROUD OF YOU.
REST IN POWER
ALWAYS
1 ❤
