Jeff is a musical drummer - he plays like a lead guitarist and still manages to keep perfect time for the rest of the band - probably the best living drummer today
Jeff Namilton and Steve Smith, these two are definitely in the top five of the best drummers. For Jeff Hamilton, a real successor to drummers like Sid Cutlet and Joe Jones and Joe Morello, just look at who he pays homage to.
I've noticed 2 Thumbs Down for this, they were obviously not drum lovers. What's not to like about a drum solo like that? The dum solo was musical & showed great finesse.
A modern day master indeed. I still love the old things he did with Monty Alexander and Ray Brown back in the day. To my knowledge, there is no better brush player in jazz either. Very musical, creative drummer.
Graceful authority! A true specialist. I hear the Cape Verdean Blues (Horace Silver)? Jeff's performance is inspiring - thank you for sharing this video. David W. Hansen
Jeff Hamilton! What can be said? Tremendous player, very musical indeed! Knows how to connect technique with taste to get an extremely musical result. I don't know what else to say, his playing says it all. God bless him!
Great drum solo ! (I would have like to see it with my own eyes, but fortunatly, some one was there for filming !....) Thank you for this excellent video !
Just a small 4 kit sounds better than a lot of today’s big kits. It boils down to the drummer...but not keen on the hands playing. Use bongos for that.
La gente habla en casa; en la calle; en el trabajo y todo el tiempo; y no se pueden callar por una vez; para escuchar a un maestro? Se merecen lo peor; son la ultima mierda del universo.
Jeff Hamilton is a BEAST
That's what a masterful musician sounds like! :) So, beautiful, Jeff.

This is some brilliant drumming. I definitely hear the melody to “Caravan”
Nothing wrong with your ears. It certainly is “caravan”
i'm not the only one who heard it!,!
Played a show with Jeff last night, his brush work is phenomenal. Check out Back Home Again in Indiana.

i think he was playing caravan in the beginning.
What is he using to muffle his bass drum? it's just a thump. I like it.
I know this! Its SAMBA on foots!!! Amarzing drummer! Always amarzing!
Do these people know Jeff isn't just good, but one of the best in the world?
Does anyone know how much that Remo kit he is playing sales for?
BRAV-O!!!
All this on a 4 piece kit, means talent...not just a lot of drums.
A bit of movement on the rack tom.
Wow! Who needs a band ?
Caravan!!!!

Use bongos for that.
Four negative voters might be totally deaf.

Great drummer but I hate the sound of the drums
