Joe Porcaro was a teacher of mine at PIT in 1991. He was an amazing drummer and human. He would tell us Jeff's latest session or touring stories all the time(like Bruce Springsteen offering Jeff a million dollars to go on tour). We had a Steely Dan class, and one day, while I was onstage playing caves of altimira, Jeff walked in. I was about to freak out. He walked right up to me and put his hand on my shoulder and said quietly..."relax"...we both laughed out loud. He was such a humble person. Watching him play up close was truly extraordinary.

Jeff Porcaro is on my Mount Rushmore of rock drummers with Pratt, Copeland, and Bonzo. He had a pocket that will never be equaled.

Jeff's work on 99 made me realize how crucial it is to FEEL THE GROOVE. Those hihat lifts are PERFECT too.

I was Joe's student when Jeff walked in and said can I borrow the black drum set dad? A-l-o-h-a

As an adolescent, I was all about technical drummers like Peart, Portnoy, Weckl, Donati, etc. Now, as a 40 year-old professional player myself, the drumming of cats like Jeff Porcaro, Ed Greene, Steve Gadd, Bernard Purdie and J.R. Robinson are where my priorities and heart are. Grooving, making your bandmates comfortable and your audience tap their feet...that's the biggest lesson I've learned from Jeff Porcaro!
A true musician par excellence, there will never be another like him. Thanks for this important tribute to a groove titan.

I STILL find songs I grew up listening to (I'm 54) that when I look at the credits, there's Jeff Porcaro. That dude played on damn near everything. I think the one thing that set him apart (other than that cats inhuman playing ability) is how generous he was with his time. There's a very old VHS interview on YT of him doing a clinic at the Musicians Institute. In this clinic he states how he would help other upcoming musicians and not charge them a cent for his playing. This guy is one of the most recorded and in demand session drummers of our time. And he gave of his time and talents. Jeff is the role model our world needs!!! RIP Jeff... you're influence is still felt and heard today as it was when you were in the studio.

"Silk Degrees" alone captures every aspect of pinnacle drumming.

His legacy is that feel & groove is everything. Something that desperately needs to be rekindled in today’s musical climate!

Absolutely unreal! I had no idea he did some of those songs like "I Keep Forgettin'", "Dirty Laundry", "Human Nature", and "Beat It". Drumeo, your work and research is literally second to none. Everything you put out is incredible, but I truly love 'The Genius of' series. The in-depth research, interviews, down to the sheet music at the bottom is absolute perfection. Going into this, I mostly just knew "Rosanna", "Africa", and "Hold The Line" but now I'm truly gonna check out every Steely Dan record he cut and other session albums by the likes of Michael McDonald, Don Henley, and Michael Jackson. Thanks for opening my eyes and ears to songs I knew kicked ass but had no idea they were all from this one amazing drummer!

The thing with Jeff that always gobsmacked me is that you can solo out his track and still hear the song always. Amazing musician and my favorite drummer of all time

It was back in the late 80s (1988). I joined the army (in Finland)…a depressing time ahead. My band had recently broke up,and it seemed like I was going nowhere . Then the album “the seventh one “ came out. And as soon as I heard his drumming on Home of the Brave, I decided to continue playing, no matter how bad I felt inside. He was and still is, a special inspiration , an uplift every time I get the same feeling and mental breakdown that I had back in those days.
R.I.P Jeff.

This man was a true genius. The rosanna intro is still one of my favourite shuffles

Since I started learning drums, my appreciation for Jeff Porcaro's drumming has skyrocketed. His way of playing a beat that can sound deceptively simple but actually be really tricky. Also his drum beat for Pink Floyd - Mother is mind-blowing.

Jeff's 16th notes on the hi-hat are out of this world chef's kiss

Jeff Porcaro is an absolute legend! And I love that I'm named after him! <3

I am 57. In 1978 when I first really listened to drums on a record, it was Jeff Porcaro.
46 years later and my favorite drummer is still Jeff Porcaro.
Side note, my drum teacher here in the Lehigh Valley, PA area studied with Joe Porcaro for about 6 years in Los Angeles in the late 1980s. So I have a direct connection to Jeff Porcaro.
RIP Jeff, Mike and Joe ❤

His 16th’s, ghostnotes and sense of time and groove (shuffle, swing etc.). One of my idols. ❤
