This feel on the cymbal should be established before adding any other limbs.
Once the ride sounds good, add the left foot hi hat on 2 & 4. This will become your
generic Jazz pattern which will enable you to start swinging with a band.
Next we can add the left hand with some simple quarter note patterns. Once these
become natural, add some swing 8th note patterns as indicated in the final 4
exercises. Keep the ride pattern consistent!
Follow along with me in these next exercises as I will walk you through the basic
steps in developing a proper Jazz/Swing feel.
Buddy Rich, Gene Krupa, Max Roach, Papa Jo Jones, Tony Williams, Art Blakey,
Jack Dejohnette, Jim Chapin, & Elvin Jones!
Triplets can be counted a few different ways Heres the one I highly recommend.
To avoid any confusion, here are a few other methods of counting triplets
Triplets are also known as 3 part counting (3 Triplets per Quarter Note)
Notes that are grouped in 3s in common time, must have the number 3 written
above the group; otherwise the time signature becomes 12/8.
Triplets are commonly found in these styles of music; Jazz, Blues, R&B, Pop, Hip
Hop and Rock.
