Here is the killing groove I play on the tune “Soul Power” from the Maceo Parker Album
“Life on Planet Groove”.

On this tune, if left to my own devices, I might have played a “Fusion” version of soul power...but due to Maceo’s Genius Groovageticistic Funk-Meister J.B. Horns leadership, I played the Following groove.


Concept: Play the Bass Drum with all your might, the play the Back Beat with all your Heart,
then play the Hi-Hat with all your intensity and simplicity.

Record yourself playing it 100X in a row...
