This is my vote for the best recorded shuffle so far in the 21st Century. Portland's Lloyd Jones with the great Reinhardt Wolfgang Melz on drums. Reinhardt is one the greatest Texas shuffle drummers, along with Steve Jordan and George Raines. On this tune Reinhardt pushes the "cut" as far as he can towards the 4th 16th of each quarter note and he maintains it for the whole song. The first 16 bars everyone is on board, and is shuffle heaven. Good luck trying to recreate this, particularly at this tempo. A shuffle masterpiece if ever there was one.
