Cool thing about drums is that studying from the past makes you understand how newer guys get that idea from. I'm a big thomas pridgen fan and I've seen him do similar licks like this and it's just cool to see how it transcend from probably this idea onto a whole new level
Not a drummer but loved this. 60 y ago offered a vocal scholarship to NTSU, but went to Stanford and played R&B and rock. Got to see Tony with Miles in the 60s. Thanks again. Really helps me get into the tunes in whole new way. Thanks again.
Thanks for sharing that, Jim! Tony with Miles in the '60s must have been incredible to witness, and I’m glad the video helped you connect with the tunes in a fresh way!
You Sir , are an Excellent instructor ! Spent my 20s on the road playing drums in RocknRoll bands here in Western Canada. Miles quartet (on my SonyWalkman!) was my Happy place . So great to see the Tony stuff layed out so clear . Thank You Sir! 60 this year & Still figuring out Tony !
Another great lesson for us, Q! Especially helpful to slow them down, play at different speeds and bring into a musical context with ride pattern, then the fills. THANKS!
I śaw Tony do a drum clinic in Lynwood, Washington (suburb of Seattle) in 1996 or early 97, just a few months before he died. It was ba-dass! Thank for this Q!!!
Tony Williams!!! One of my all time favorite combo drummers! A few albums I love that I feel don’t get mentioned enough are, Tony Williams the Story of Neptune and with Geri Allen (and Ron Carter) Twenty-One. Both burning records and Tony is of course off the charts! FP
5:55 one variation I came up for practice years ago was for these Swiss Trips but adding the last 2 beats of each triplet on the kick drum so that for 'each' triplet note, 2 limbs(either 2 hands or a hand and a foot) are playing or flamming where in swiss trips there's only 1 of the triplets that double. When you start moving your hands around it sounds pretty thick. Check it out for a variation -it's fun
Thanks Q! Tony was amazing, imagine playing with Miles Davis at 17! Especially his time playing ride and hat, so fluid and always sounded like skipping on stars to me. Away to Blushda and beyond.
Magnificent contribution as always. Just to congratulate you for the channel and send you a cordial greeting, also to your loyal followers... Lately I'm short of time due to circumstances, but I'm watching the videos as I can... late but always with hope. Great... That said, a hug Mr. Davis.
Thank you Quincy! Always awesome content. Tony is my personal favorite jazz drummer. Both Steve Gadd and Vinnie Colaiuta site Tony Williams as one of their big influences. Something to ponder.
I will watch this later, I could barely hear your voice although the drum kit was loud. Maybe it's my phone. Thanks for putting that stuff out there, reminds me of stuff I learned as a kid.
This demonstration is fire!! What’s funny is, years ago I watched another cats demonstration of the “Blushda.” In all fairness, demonstration was excellent. The only problem was, he praised the drummer that supposedly coined the phrase (Blushda but vaguely mentioned Tony. Man I had to cut into that fool so tough.
Another Tony classic lick based on triplets is right-kick-right / left-kick-left / right-kick-right / left-kick-left and so on. It's like a 'shuffled daddy-mammy' with the kick in the middle of the triplet. Works great around the toms, very powerful AND melodic. You can check the intro of 'Red Mask' 😉
I've got Max Roaches solo album Survivors I bought many moons ago fantastic 👌One of my favourite Tony Williams drumming is on Stan Getz Captain Marvel some seriously amazing from all involved in this Stanley Clarke Chick Cores truly wonderful ❤️🥁
Fantastic video once again! Thank you so much! Question: For the Blushda, when the "middle diddle" in the right hand starts the lick, does that start on the beat? Or on the off the beat?
Love this Quincy, thanks for the Tony licks! You'd previously asked for other drummers to evaluate in this way. How about Mike Clark? I know he's an excellent post-bop guy but his headhunters style funk is so unique. Open hihats on the one with no BD, etc. Just a thought!
Excellent as always Q. I was very fortunate to see Tony perform in Saratoga, NY with Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock and Wynton Marcellus in 1981! It was very early as a (rock) drummer for me so I couldn't appreciate (let alone understand!) what he was doing. Nonetheless, I am so glad I was able to see those legends perform! Did he ever play traditional grip? I remember him playing matched at the show and all the photos I have seen of him are playing matched. Thanks again for all your great work!
Primarily trad grip. If you want to marvel at his playing towards the end of his 1st phase - before he expanded his kit and darkened his sound - check him out with Stan Getz, Chick Corea and Stanley Clarke in Montreux ‘72. Most of that concert should be on YT
Yeah man!! Swiss trips! Secret weapon definitely! I like to work those in a sixteen note feel. It gives a really syncopated feel. Like a herta or hemiola.uhh, when I was a kid John Bonham was one of my hero's .his solo trick was trips between the hands and foot.swiss trips between the hands and feet is really dramatic but not that difficult! I know this is a jazz based channel but ,,,just saying. Listen to the best and steal everything they got!
I don't think Tony's brilliance and influence can be over-stated, even in 2024. Especially in 2024. I remember when I was learning in high school I was anti-Tony (lol), I couldn't understand most of it and it sounded like a sloppy mess to my under-developed ears. Eventually in college, with the help of friends and colleagues giving recommendations and lots of listening, I had an epiphany. And then it's been a growing appreciation and deeper reverence ever since. He really arrived at the right time when jazz was really branching off, the influence of louder rock music energy had started to come to the fore, and drummers like Tony and Elvin were at the right place and time to play truly courageously. That's how I would describe his playing, courageous. So many of his "licks" went on to be commonplace not just in jazz but of course the jazz-fusion of the 70's, all those drummers coming out of that and innovating in the 80's. I hear it very much in the 90's, the drum intro to Smells Like Teen Spirit for example is like a verbatim Tony lick, but slower than he'd usually play it, lol. Even current hip-hop drummers and chops-masters of the Chris Dave era play sextuplet-based ideas integrating odd-patterns with the hands and feet that Tony was doing all the time, especially in the 70's. Many of the most renowned drummers from the 70's and on, but especially the 80's talk about how Tony is the man (Gadd, Vinnie, etc.) Could go on forever, but anyway, great video!
Also, your last points are so crucial. Don't just take the word of some educator, as wise as they are. Always go back to the source material. And then at the same time get creative with it, see how you might be inclined to apply it in the ways that seem best to you. It's a long process!
Right on Jon! Thanks for sharing your great thoughts on the Great Tony WIlliams. Sometimes we have to mature ourselves to realize, hear and recognize greatness.
After Tony did his solo at Zild day in Scotland,he came to the front and said to us "I just wanna say that that when people come to see a concert or a jazz band,they're not coming to see the person behind the traps playing them (ie a great name player),but they are just coming to hear the drums being played" IF anyone can shine any light on what he meant,Ill die happy.
Hey Q, great video as always. That buzz flam is so tasty. Maybe you could make a video talking about Jeff Tain Watts or even Big Sit Catlett licks, there arent a lot of those out there. Peace
Hey Quincy thnx for your great content again... i went to your Website to buy the Bebop phrases... i ve a question what is these Combo Pack of Midi cause there is a Off price for If i buy These both together...or is IT possible to buy the Bebop with the basslines together... Peace man
Absolutely interesting lesson, once again Quincy. Thxs !🤗👌🏻 By the way: your T-shirt looks great. Is there any way to buy it ?!🤔 ( I mean not yours, of course, but such a one..😃🤷🏻♂️)
Always great . I’m so outa sync so sorry Maestro Quincy. Saw this ages ago . I’ve seen some guys say they’re doing a blushda but no drag ? . But really we could think of it as a left flam drag . But like you demonstrated with the Swiss it’s about the space . Working thru you jazz vocab . Geezz glad I learned the rudiments. Seeing some themes emerging . But being creative too . 🙏. Btw did Ed Soph teach @ NT ? He told Tommy Igoe something like “ accents seperate great drummers from average ones “ 😎. 🙏
I may do a quick video on accents specifically. THAT'S how important they are. You nailed it Jeff! And yes, Ed Soph taught at UNT for 30+ years. That's a great quote from him. Happy holidays my man!
Would love a breakdown of what Tony is doing with his ride and hi hat in Miles' live version of All Blues starting at about 3:11. Tony is my favorite drummer. I don't think anyone comes close.
@@drumqtips absolutely. I loved how he said the drums were an inherently aggressive intstrument, so he sat further away to get more attack. He's tops in my book.
Quincy's "158 Bebop Vocabulary Phrases" is awesome and everyone should check it out, if a book such as this appeared in a music store, bound and published by a publishing company such Hal Leonard, they'd charge significantly more than Quincy is charging. Do yourselves a favor and check it out!
You can play it pretty fast But the third one that is but it's actually another rock and roll idea or rather a New Orleans r&B idea he just borrowed to flavor up the same old Jazz.. like Little Richard ideas the old two beat New Orleans r&B stuff Tony had big ears
Iv'e noticed that the pro drummers who come up with their signature licks also have their drums tuned to their style. Seems like they have a sound and feel in mind that also required the proper tone to sound bold and full. Everyone that learns the licks never has the gutsy sound of the creator.
The Tony Williams thing is all well and good but how about getting into some of the Great Buddy Rich rudimental solos and licks like Buddy's blinding speed single stroke rolls which conveniently many drummers avoid as much as possible " I wonder why!"
I actually almost did a Buddy lesson instead of Tony. He’s on my list so look out for a video on him soon Keno. Just don’t expect Buddy’s blinding speed from me🤣
Tony thing is “all well and good??”😂😂 yeah Q, can you demonstrate a Buddy Rich Single stroke roll: is it RLLRLLLRRR OR RRLRRLRRLL? 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️ *Sorry Quincy, your videos are awesome….but these comments these folks leave you sometimes are way too goofy*
Why??... Many drummers 'can' play fast single stroke rolls (especially TONY)! What does all that speed and technique 'ADD' to a composition or Soloist ideas? A rudimental clinic 'NOT' appropriate for every song! Supporting the "Music" and musicians has Priority over "CHOPS"...especially in 'Blues', "JAZZ" and it's derivatives! 🥁✊🏿💯✊🏿
Actually it's Earl Palmer not Tony Williams who started that Blusda......."f Tony was he was smart enough to look at other sources besides a typicarl Jazz drummers. Most people know it from John Bonham I don't know where John picked it up but I'm sure some Earl actually so that message is for the young drummers don't just listen to the typical Jazz players to develop your style
You are certainly welcome to your opinion but the truth is he changed how we played the instrument. Gotta put a bit more respect one of the great innovators and masters of our time.
Cool thing about drums is that studying from the past makes you understand how newer guys get that idea from. I'm a big thomas pridgen fan and I've seen him do similar licks like this and it's just cool to see how it transcend from probably this idea onto a whole new level
True for all instruments, I find this especially true on piano
Absolutely!

You Sir , are an Excellent instructor ! Spent my 20s on the road playing drums in RocknRoll bands here in Western Canada. Miles quartet (on my SonyWalkman!) was my Happy place . So great to see the Tony stuff layed out so clear . Thank You Sir!
60 this year & Still figuring out Tony !
I appreciate the kind words sir!
Tony Williams was something else, especially his ride cymbal playing was just amazing , like no other drummer. Very good video Quincy.
Absolutely Chuck!
What Tony plays in Miles Davis Four and More album is the most beautiful and unique jazz drumming I`ve ever heard.
Can’t argue that! Incredible playing by TW.
Beautiful, man .
You made every lick so understandable.
Excellent/ thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it my man!
Another great lesson for us, Q! Especially helpful to slow them down, play at different speeds and bring into a musical context with ride pattern, then the fills. THANKS!
Q, you are such a great drum teacher! Thanks so much.
I appreciate that!
These licks are GOLD!
Even at super slow it sounds so slick so great. Great lesson to learn
Glad you like it!
Oh my oh my Q. This was my wish (and I guess many others too) and you did it. Thanks so much. You are so great , and I am very happy 😊
Great stuff. Thanks for bringing these legendary Tony licks to our attention. Love your playing. Superb instruction.
My pleasure Chucky!
Hey prof. Love the series and the work that you do. I would love if you did a video on 4 Roy Haynes licks to learn. Thanks so much.
UNT is the place where I did my first deep-dives into Tonyworld! Awesome video ❤️
Excellent lesson on Tony!
Glad you liked it!
I śaw Tony do a drum clinic in Lynwood, Washington (suburb of Seattle) in 1996 or early 97, just a few months before he died. It was ba-dass! Thank for this Q!!!
Love this series. the Max Roach one changed my way of thinking about paradiddles and stickinga overall. Thank you so much for that

Thank You! Another great job of making things understandable. Always wished I had seen Tony perform live. (LOVE the shirt!)
I actually did see him live. Shoulda mentioned that in the lesson. Thanks as always TC!
Thanks Q! Tony was amazing, imagine playing with Miles Davis at 17! Especially his time playing ride and hat, so fluid and always sounded like skipping on stars to me. Away to Blushda and beyond.
Have fun blushda-ing Simon! Careful not to overuse it. Thats easy to do since it’s so fun to play.
Your snare tuning sounds great
You made it look so easy and way easy to understand what the licks are comprised of!!! Thank you for this
Glad to hear that! Thnx
You are a fantastic teacher! Great video
I appreciate that!
Magnificent contribution as always. Just to congratulate you for the channel and send you a cordial greeting, also to your loyal followers... Lately I'm short of time due to circumstances, but I'm watching the videos as I can... late but always with hope.
Great...
That said, a hug Mr. Davis.
Much respect JWB! I hope you’ve received my shout outs to you in some previous lesson. Thanks for staying on board with me so long👊🏾
Thank you always ...
This channel is a luxury for me 👌🏼
Love your channel. I have learned so much. You're Numero Uno in my book
Thank you Quincy! Always awesome content. Tony is my personal favorite jazz drummer.
Both Steve Gadd and Vinnie Colaiuta site Tony Williams as one of their big influences. Something to ponder.
Exactly!
Far out ! very inspiring. Thank you Quincy
Great breakdown Q! Thanks for the video and keep up the amazing work at UNT!!
I love this channel brother. ❤
I appreciate that👊🏾
Excellent video Quincy! Thanks
As always an amazing break down. Thank you! Now to go and annoy myself for 6 months 🙄 great licks
Thanks Simon!
Thank you for this fantastic lesson!
You're very welcome!
Love Tony Williams! Thanks!!!
Thanks again,Q!!!
Amazing series.
Wow, lots of my musician heroes in that alumni lineup‼️
Unlocking the secrets of soloing here perhaps…✌️🌻
I’m blessed to be teaching at a place with such a long lineage of great musicians for sure Markie!
Thank you so much for all these excelent material, Quincy. Just bought the e-book!
I will watch this later, I could barely hear your voice although the drum kit was loud. Maybe it's my phone. Thanks for putting that stuff out there, reminds me of stuff I learned as a kid.
Great video man. Never knew that thing was called a Blushda. Show's you what I know!
I learnt the name from my students. Lol! Hope all is well Jesse👊🏾
Wow! I was playing blushdas back in the 60's and didn't know it. (What they were called, that is.),
Maybe TW got it from you! 😂😂
hello what sticks do you use ?
thank you for everything you are the best teaching drumming content on the internet in my opinion
I use my own Vic Firth Signature stick available on my website: www.Quincydavisjazzz.com.
This demonstration is fire!! What’s funny is, years ago I watched another cats demonstration of the “Blushda.”
In all fairness, demonstration was excellent. The only problem was, he praised the drummer that supposedly coined the phrase (Blushda but vaguely mentioned Tony. Man I had to cut into that fool so tough.
Yup! Happens all the time unfortunately.
Q, we need a link to the t-shirt! My son is thinking about studying with you and I'd love to get this shirt for him

あなたのドラミングは魂があります😊音が生き物みたいに聴こえます！cool٩(^‿^)۶
僕のビデオレソンを見てくれてありがとうございます🙏🏾
Fantastic video once again! Thank you so much! Question: For the Blushda, when the "middle diddle" in the right hand starts the lick, does that start on the beat? Or on the off the beat?
Sometimes the middle diddle is on the beat and sometimes it's off the beat. Practice it both ways.
Fantastic
Merci🙏🏾

Gary Novak took the Blushda to the next level
Gary frickin’ Novak!!
Oh man, Quincy, how am I supposed to play the Blushda as fast as you do? I‘ll still be practicing that in my grave…
I play it slow…but clean:) Maybe that’s why it sounds fast. You can do it Chris!! Let’s gooooooo💪🏾
RIP TONY
WE ARE STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW YOU TICKED
You can play it pretty fast But the third one that is but it's actually another rock and roll idea or rather a New Orleans r&B idea he just borrowed to flavor up the same old Jazz.. like Little Richard ideas the old two beat New Orleans r&B stuff Tony had big ears
Iv'e noticed that the pro drummers who come up with their signature licks also have their drums tuned to their style. Seems like they have a sound and feel in mind that also required the proper tone to sound bold and full. Everyone that learns the licks never has the gutsy sound of the creator.
Sloweeerrrrr!
I tried to play them slow, but you can always slow it down by changing the video speed. Hopefully that helps Jose.
The Tony Williams thing is all well and good but how about getting into some of the Great Buddy Rich rudimental solos and licks like Buddy's blinding speed single stroke rolls which conveniently many drummers avoid as much as possible " I wonder why!"
I actually almost did a Buddy lesson instead of Tony. He’s on my list so look out for a video on him soon Keno. Just don’t expect Buddy’s blinding speed from me🤣

No how dare you Tony played cos dot clear heads not coated or is it your way of telling us your gay
Just wow…
Don't really care for these or his style in general, prob the most over rated jazz drummer ever
You are certainly welcome to your opinion but the truth is he changed how we played the instrument. Gotta put a bit more respect one of the great innovators and masters of our time.
Thanx man!
What about some kenny clarke or papa jo... This is real cool and helpful stuff!
