CJ Shearn Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 I thought everyone here might get a kick out of me playing with "Suicide is Painless" from JOS' "Off The Top". Gonna have a whole channel of this stuff, just fun for my soul. https://youtu.be/7mez393-q9E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Not a bad idea for anybody, actually, isolating one element and really getting inside it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Well, that album I've lived with since I was 6 years old, and since I've gotten back into drumming stuff, Grady is such a great model for how to play quarter notes and swing. However, I can't seem to get away from accenting triplets like Elvin..... it's just ingrained in my consciousness. I cannot be like my heroes but I'll try excelling at that thing the best I can, I want to get into electronic music creation too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 Very nice! I'd never attempt playing along with Grady - he was so great! Makes me think I should get me a copy of that album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, you should, I have the Wounded Bird reissue which is just a straight copy of the Elektra/Musician original, and sounds like a flat transfer.
