Papa Grows Funk feat. Adam Deitch (Lettuce) - John Brown (Sitting In)

On March 11, 2013, one of their final Mondays at The Maple Leaf, Papa Grows Funk noticed Lettuce drummer Adam Deitch in the audience and asked him to sit in with them for a song. They played the PGF track "John Brown" off of Mr. Patterson's Hat.

Ah, Mr. Deitch, one of my total favorites. I'm a guitar player, but hearing Adam is just amazing, that groove and skill. He's really a musician's drummer = if I had to (and could) pick somebody to support a song or do a jam with, it's him. GJ as always Mr. Deitch.

About 10 years ago I was at a small club in New York, really it was a basement called Smalls.  There was a great group of guys jamming up there, and the guy next to me was really getting down.  It was inspiring, incredible music being played for maybe 20 people.  The band stopped for a short break and I got to talking to the guy next to me - it was Adam.  He had his sticks in his back pocket, went and sat in with the band and played some very out there jazz with them, completely blending.  He joined Scofields short lived band not long after that.  My brush with greatness, he was a cool ass dude and for my money the best drummer in the world.

Yeah the drummer killed but for christ sake that guitarist melted my laptop.
I would hitchhike to Sacramento in the rain to see that guy play guitar.
