Jack DeJohnette - drum solo at PASIC 2009

Legend, what else can you say?

Reminds me of Max Roach a bit in terms of construction. I met Jack in Boston a long time ago.
I like his stuff with John Abercrombie.Check it out.
(I still prefer Elvin Jones,Joe Morello,and Buddy Rich for solos though....sorry to say)

Masterful..has usual!

Keith Carlock cited him as a huge influence. I can hear it very clearly in this video.

It's all about composing and musicality not rudiments which should serve the music not the other way round, Jack is the ultimate musical drummer a joy to behold.

Cool. A Love Supreme solo

Beautiful drum finish and playing :).

one of the all time drum masters on the planet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Love Suprem....

A Drummer Supreme

This is what it means to be free🙏🏾

The comments are right on! He really does “talk” though his kit playing. Takes you along so naturally.

True art, genuine human expression. So inspiring.

This has to be the most MUSICAL solo I've ever heard. He is literally TALKING through the kit, which is why i love his playing so much. He was even doing this with Miles back in the day, he just perfected it. Alot to learn here

Great!! Drummer only musicality

One of the best improvised drum solos for me. sometimes it’s not just about playing faster than the other guys.... It’s how you tell a story and how you construct something that would sound like one complete thought from beginning to end.

The most musical drum solo of all time. Jack plays drums like the piano.

Oh man what a natural sound!!! Sound!,!!!

Who needs a band when you've got this guy! Yeah, yeah, and once more...YEAH!

That’s what i call “jack shit!”

This was true musicality punctuated by monster tom rolls. Great solo.

Best Drummer ever till 50 jears

Jack is the GREATEST. SO MUCH MUSICALITY, COORDINATION, SOUL. I LOVE IT. SO INSPIRING

This isn't very difficult to play , but it's more musical than most of the drummers throwing in very technical stuff . Nice ...also requires some name to it because if you would see someone on the street playing this you'd just say ...yeah this guy got some talent but needs to practise more

Just because he plays similar tune on toms which reminds of double bass pattern , which is by the way very common it doesn't mean he is playing Love supreme . It would be the same if you'd hit two first notes of any symphony, which a child can do , that some snob would say hey he's playing Beethoven

Awesome

Those toms sound terrible, no ?

I've drummed my whole life 67 years old. From North Chicago. Jack DeJohnett. Aghhhhhhh please. He's Savant. A Living Legend and
BOSS. One of Steve Smith's favorites. Mine too.

Jack is unbelievably awesome, I love his Aquarian signature drumheads, they sound fantastic! ❤

Brilliant 🥁👌

My favorite jazz drummer 🥁

Pure joy. Like water.

Amazing how Jack mastered both traditional matched grips..

🙌🏾🙌🏾

He plays with a lot of feel

Great lesson of how to dialog with the drums.

He is whole band by himself. I met him years ago at a life changing clinic. He spent a lot of time talking about aliens and American Indians. It got way out there. His solos first on piano then drums was truly from the stars. Nobody plays like Jack. Wow!

Jack is truly one of my favorite drummers 🎉❤

Wonderful!

My all time favorite drummer! Simply an amazing man.

Excelente 👏👏👏👏👏👏🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🇧🇷👍

one of the greatest drummers ever!LOve anything he does especially gateway,anyone from any genre can learn from this man.

I understand why JD is one of Bill Stewart’s favorite drummers

Drums are always happy when they all get to join in the fun; from the largest to the smallest, sorta like children.....

Always love Jack. One of the greats

jack dejohnette is a legend

Jack DeJohnette is my favorite drummer of any genre. I wish he'd have been using a more articulate ride on this solo as it would have been nice to hear more stick and less roar. I also found it interesting that he never hit that flanged/sound control cymbal to the right of his ride.

a love supreme
