  • Resumen

  • John's topic is sure to delight anyone who has a passion for drums as he explores the James Brown song, the 'Funky Drummer' and the innovative contribution of Clyde Stubblefield. Clyde's back beats and ghost notes techniques were a signature sound and rhythm of the song, which became a staple sampled by hip hop and pop genres.

    John does a Fool's Anthem first and analyzes the sample by re-enacting the backbeat and providing an explanation of the drumming style. Clyde Stubblefield was a humble, self-taught, talented musician. The discussion continues with a list of songs that benefited from the creativity of Clyde's work, the surprising lack of recognition and no royalties received, and the overall ethical implications of fair compensation. Clyde was influenced by industrial-like rhythms and applied these beats into his drum style. The fools end the episode encouraging audiences to acknowledge and remember Clyde for his contribution to music.
