Who sampled whom No.4

John Abercrombie is a great guitarist and composer. Throughout the years he has offered some landmark-recordings to us humble people, like "Timeless", "Gateway" and many more. That's one of the main reasons he has been sampled so much. The second explanation I can offer to you is  that people probably smoked too much, when listening to his albums. Enjoy...

Slum Village - Reunion (produced by black milk)

John Abercrombie - Timeless (samples appears at 9:18, but listen to the whole track)

Cinematic Orchestra - Durian

John Abercrombie - Sorcery No.1 ( first sample appears at 1:16, second sample appears at 7:13)

That's what I call a drum solo No.1

Joey Baron is a grand master of the drumset. He has played with Bill Frisell, Steve Kuhn, Stan Getz, John Zorn, David Bowie, John Scofield, Michael Jackson, Jim Hall, Dizzy Gillespie, John Abercrombie and Tim Berne, just to name a few.

Here is one of his killer-solos. Huge and generous sound, seamless flow, groove, melody, dynamics, great development of ideas, great tuning, outstanding technique put in practice only in order to translate the ideas coming from the heart and the brain. Enjoy.

Ps. Here's some advice from the grand master himself.
