Chords for Charlie Watts Broken 8th notes pattern

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Alright, today we're going to talk about _ _ _ Charlie Watts.
Charlie Watts is the drummer for the Rolling Stones.
I know everybody's heard of the Rolling Stones, know who they are.
Charlie Watts is their famous drummer.
And he has a very distinctive style of playing.
And one of the main things he does in his playing style
is he breaks up his eighth note ride cymbal and hi-hats pattern
and _ broken up eighth notes instead of a straight ride cymbal pattern.
A normal straight ride cymbal pattern, you know, for a _ rock tune like they play
would be something [C#m] _ _ _ _ _ like_ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Play [N] a straight eighth note on the hi-hat, _ bass drum beats, and your snare drum lick on two and four.
Now, Charlie Watts has a different style of playing.
He plays a little different than that.
He plays in such a way that kind of breaks up _ the ride cymbal pattern, the hi-hats, _ _
and the broken up notes, which sound something like this.
[C#] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
He kind of breaks the pattern up, the monotony of the pattern,
the straight [N] ride cymbal pattern to give the song a different kind of a feel.
And also, he's hitting his _ first three notes of the ride pattern,
and then when he hits the snare drum lick on the two and the four,
he's not hitting the cymbal at the same time.
It's more _
_ _ [C#m] _ like_ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[N] _ _ And it gives it a little_
Actually, it makes the snare drum lick sound even more distinctive
by not being backed up by the hi-hat beat, by the hit lick on the hi-hat at the same time.
And it's just another way of breaking up your cymbal pattern
and giving the song a little different feel.
_ _ He's _ _ _ _ _ the master of playing that kind of pattern.
He plays that way all the time.
_ It's one of his hallmarks of his playing.
So, it's just another way to play, to change [C#] your playing around
and give your playing a little variety.
So, practice playing your Charlie Watts broken eighth note pattern. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Better and better at doing it as you go along.
And you can fit it into songs, and it just gives the song a little different feel at times.
You know, it might fit better in some of the songs you already_
Or it might [N] liven up some of the songs that you do that are giving a little monotonous to you.
So, that's the Charlie Watts broken eighth note cymbal pattern, ride pattern.
_ _ Work on it, learn how to play it, and add it into your playing,
your beats that you already know how to play, and it's a good little thing to learn.
And that's all for today. _
