Jeff Hamilton drum lesson: how to sound like a million bucks (Remo Sandlane Sessions #5)
5522 views | ❤ 1 | 👎 0
Jeff 'Hammertone' Hamilton explains how you can sound like a million bucks on the drums. He offers a remedy to having nerves that make you choke on the instrument. And he explains why having them is a selfish act on itself. This talk might free you from a lot of hassle on your own playing. Or even better: what you can do to improve it.
He talks about his first uptight night in a club called Charlie's Playboy Lounche in Philadelphia in 1975.
Worth watching because of the funny anecdote that includes Jazz legends Philly Joe Jones and Bobby Durham!
