I've just starting playing drums as a late in life hobby but I spend hours a day playing, loving every minute trying to play all sorts of songs by ear etc. Have to let you know, the videos you post are invaluable to those like me learning, wanting to grasp techniques, understand how parts are played etc. Your videos have shortened my learning curve considerably. I suspect I'm not the only one who has benefited. Of course, I'm impressed with your playing, the quality of your productions, etc but really just wanted to send you a note thanking you, and letting you know the positive impact your videos have provided me, and I'm sure countless others.
Thank you for your kind, supportive comment. I am glad to know my videos help you (and hopefully others). Good luck on your drumming journey...it's worth every step!!
I think of my mom and dad... They loved Myrtle Beach South Carolina.... They lived there for 3 years and my Dad died here in Ohio in 2009 and my mom in 2913 in Myrtle Beach... My brothers and sister went down to handle bringing her home... When they were at her room and went out on the balcony and saw 2 dolphins as if my parents came by to say good-bye.... I was here in Ohio taking care of the doggies... When my brother told me what he saw... I have to hold on to that.... Lets me know that they are together again.... This song brings back memories of my family on vacation on the beach....
Great covers you do. I have learned the most by playing along with you. I just dabled poorly for 2 years and was one of those cringe amd walk away guys i guess.... because it got way easier using these artists and your drums. Cross,Walsh, baker street....great tunes and thaks for the lessons. I have come along way but still have much to learn! When you arent off it "sounds" fun, imagine that😮.
I grew up with this song long ways of the US, and I loved CC work....Today, thanks to this excellent cover I even like it more! This cover are the key for me to understand and break down such a great hit and apprecaite even more each instrment played. Love it, thanks Steve!
Nicely done. Drums sound great. Although I'm a metal head at heart I can really appreciate the music of Christopher Cross. It's all around feel good music, 1980, I was 10. Tommy Taylor on drums 👍
Thank you!!! Sorry it took three years to see and respond to your kind, supportive comment. I must confess, I have been a weekend warrior drummer for 40 years.
Love the way you played. Especially the timing to open Hi-hat that elevated the emotion. Thank you Steve. If there is a chance, I would like to listen to you play Reunited-Peaches & Herb.❤
I love Christopher Cross' songs, soooo great to watch you playing this on drums. One of my faves. Please do more drum covers of his songs, you are wonderful🙏♥️
Man, I truly miss my drums. I bet I am so rusty now that my timing is horrid. Over 2 decades that was my life. From a very young child and lessons along the early days of junior and high school up to 2005 ...I lost my kit and everything. The house and all in it. No insurance sadly. I moved to Ga. Raised my kids and focused on them. Now they grew up happy and grad moved on and I'm a grand parent. My son I got into guitar with few chords I knew and he's amazing. When he moved out a year later I bought a strat. I haven't looked back. Its been a battle within me wondering what I am doing with guitar after all those years put into my obsession. But something has happened that I cannot put my finger on. I love the emotional release. I thought about an ekit. Uh....man....well, it might fit in my camper studio. Ive been uploading my journey to TH-cam. Crazy. I play the opposite on guitar to what I played with drums. From Dream theater Prog rock fusion etc...to now stuff I hear in my head. Ambient bluesy stuff. Sadly no drums at all on my channel. I hope to change that soon but for now..it is what I it is. Hahahah. Maybe a controller and vsts will help too. Peace man. I recently got into Christopher Cross as that song takes me back to my 8 year old self. I miss those early days. Take care. Miced up great here and you tune your kit great. My snare would have a bit of breathing room.
Que me desculpem os outros músicos, mas bateria é um instrumento de outro mundo, os detalhes, o tempo de cada som, a coordenação dos quatro membros, é algo surreal.
Great cover. Ballads are the hardest to cover. You need the right feel and space in the song. You captured it.
Thank you!!!!
