Dennis Chambers: in the Pocket

Here, together for the first time since 1987 with former bandmates John Scofield, Gary Garinger, and Jim Beard, Dennis' funk-meets-jazz style drives tunes such as So you say, Cissy Strut, and Blue matter. Dennis and Gary demonstrate the groundbreaking drum and bass grooves from the three songs: Cold Sweat, Cissy Strut, and Chameleon. Dennis explains what it means to play in the pocket and shows how he does it, using the classic P-Funk grooves Flashlight and One Nation Under A Groove as his examples. In the Pocket provides valuable insight into this extraordinary drummer, both as a soloist and in inspired performances with this exceptional band. Level: Beginner to Pro.
