"Paying the Cost to Be the Boss" by B.B. King

“

- This next beat is one that Sonny Freeman played with B.B. King on a song called Paying the Cost to Be the Boss. And the beat goes like this. One, two, three, four, one, two, three, four. ("Paying the Cost to Be the Boss" by B.B. King) The next beat we're gonna learn is from a song called Sweet Home Chicago. One of my favorite songs ever. And the drummer, Steve Jordan, played this on the Blues Brothers soundtrack. And we're gonna play it with four on the floor, which means the bass drum is playing on all four beats. So, it's a shuffle, four on the floor beat. And it goes like this. One, two, one, two, three, four. ("Sweet Home Chicago" by Blues Brothers)
