Steely Dan - Hey Nineteen (Drum cover) by Kai Jokiaho

This is one of the best groove practise songs along with Billy Jean. The original drums were played by Wendel drum machine which had Rick Marotta's grooves programmed. The challenge of this song is to keep a hypnotic groove and not rush any fills. I tried to mix my drums to sound like a record. I hope you like it and please check out my other Steely Dan cover Kid Charlemagne    • Steely Dan - Kid Charlemagne (Drum cover) ...
