This one hurts. One of my favorite parts of his style was he often didn't hit the high hat on 4 of a 4/4 beat. It's hard to hear it but I always thought that was an interesting choice. Whether he did it because that's how he learned to play or to deliberately leave some room for other sounds on the downbeat, it was interesting to me.

I've watched for it in most videos and live perf since then and yep, didn't seem to change much. Unsure if it was a jazz-flavored thing or what, but distinctive.
