He Patters The Hi-Hat

It predates "Shaft" by about a year but Led Zeppelin's "Night Flight" opens with that same swing beat on the hi-hat albeit a tad slower.

Should also mention that Zeppelin would incorporate "Theme From Shaft" in Dazed & Confused medleys on their late 1971 tour, right after the song was released... Bonham was probably very familiar with the break in Otis' "Try A Little Tenderness" that the intro to "Shaft" was lifted from.

Is what you're after just a sixteenth-note feel, with accents?
How bout if is played by a tambourine, like say "Tears of a Clown"? A bunch of Motown really.

― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 13 February 2019 20:57 (five years ago) link
that song is full-on "theme from shaft" in many ways, not just the hi-hat lol
― sun-kil moonsician (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 13 February 2019 21:03 (five years ago) link
I lol'd a bit when "apparently really good drummers play this pattern" was followed closely by "Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls."
Not all have the same pulse of accents. The variation in open vs closed hats of the Shaft theme is unique and unrepeated.
I don't think Regatta de Blanc belongs because it actually starts with an 8th feel on the hat, as opposed 16ths, and the faster bits later are cross-sticking, not hi-hat.
I still think this is a fine example
