For those who have wondered...
« on: December 25, 2007, 07:58:21 PM »
Many people have asked me, "Who is that cat in the white t-shirt that jumps off the kit?" His name is Q. Jackson, an Oakland, CA veteran. Here is a clip of him from a few years ago.

God bless

yeah yo. thanks. the roll is not hard. I tried it and it was cool. But it was the way he came off with it that made look like he was doing something harder. The alteration was hot.
Will gig for experience! and most of all, Jesus Christ!

 FLAT!!!!! I WAS WONDERING FOR A WHILE, WHY DID YOU TAKE THE CLIP OF Q OFF OF GOSPEL CHOPS? This was one of the best ones in my opinion. When will you be able to get another clip of him? Thanks for posting this up again. Greatly appreciated Dude!!!!!

Yea that lick was all about placement. If he had done it in the middle of the song it wouldn't have had the impact it had. Nonetheless, it was a cool lick that was well-placed and sounded good, even though it wasn't the most technically difficult thing in the world. And dude plays with mad energy and I can appreciate that, even if he does seem a bit over the top sometimes. Thanks Flat. GB ;)

Yeah, dude is nice on the set... He could have filled that song with mad licks and chops but he resisted (placement was nice)...yeah Mr. Jackson does play with energy, that is good though cause he looks like he enjoys playing.. Good looking out Flat... Stay Blessed, Nate j.

I love that clip man!
Thanx for posting it!

It was a mistake.  There is no such thing as 13/6.  For the first part of the vid he was playing in 10.  The second part he was playing in 15.

In the SSV2 Drum Clinic, Justin Brown demonstrates a "5 over 4" which is a phrase of 5 played over a count of 4. Can a phrase of 13 be played on top of a count of 6?

God bless

Yeah if you program it in an MPC   ;D

In other words, it can be done but it hasnt yet, to my knowledge.  Its close to being classified as impossible.  Close enough to say not possible.  And definately light years away from what Tony was actually playing!



.......and to Vicfirth93 and JrDaDrumma where is all the attitude coming from?  Who said anything about the lick being hard to do?  It was nice.  Thats all.  You guys are somethin else.-Now, can you fulfill edough's request and write it out?

No attitude here dog, just saying the reason everybody was oooin' and ahhhn' was because he knew where to place the lick(sounds like a compliment to me), and I also said it sounded good(???), but because of the placement not because it was other-worldly difficult. I was making an observation(I can still do that right??) No need to go CIA on me lol. As for the second part of your statement, come talk me after a few months of my jazz lessons, and perhaps I can help you out with a transcription, until then dude...TOUGH BREAK! :D GB  ;)

lol!  Ok....I'll say it again.  Who said the lick was difficult?  Where does that fit in the topic of this thread?  And dont worry about writing it out man.  I was just reinforcing edough's request to Vicfirth93.

Ok I dig. I guess I made that comment because I was thinking it ever since I first saw the lick. I was like, why is everybody flippin out????? :-\ So I guess this provided the first opportunity to think out loud. :P But you're right, it doesn't really fit into the topic, I was just venting lol. But it was a nice, well-placed lick, but I guess I'd never seen any kind of reaction like that outside of a shed. Anyway, it was hot. GB ;)

Flat, for some reason the main singer looks like Demetrius Tolefree (to me).
Is it him?
