I had a few requests for a demonstration of playing bare hand technique on the drums so here is a tutorial. I also encourage you to check out great drummers who used this technique, like Joe Morello, Jo Jones, Chico Hamilton and Jeff Hamilton.
Here are some video links.
Jo Jones - youtube.com/watch?v=zATnuCPHeT8&t=38s
( Absolutely magical, suave, slick drumming from Papa Jo)
Joe Morello - youtube.com/watch?v=dksFL9VXnCs&t=216s
( Great footage which shows Joe's use of the back of his hands)
Chico Hamilton - youtube.com/watch?v=lj32gBUCI9E
(Audio only - One of my personal favs , the hands part starts around 1:40)
Jeff Hamilton - youtube.com/watch?v=uvwCwLuPxP4
(One of the finest hand soloists around, and just an all around tasty swingin' drummer)
