Excellent music reading skills. The goal of this book is to first introduce basic

1.Count out loud. This is a must in order to become a good reader.

2.Practice at various tempos from slow to fast.

around the full drumset (toms, cymbals, hi-hat, etc.).

Remember, there is no substitute for a good teacher

Since its publication, many drummers have asked me how I was inspired to write this book.

I was teaching drums , giving 85 half-hour lessons each week with about 55 students. Monday to

Friday.

First I would lesson to the student´s last lesson and then write, demonstrate ,explain and play with

them on their new lesson.

I then wrote all that stuff and made copies. I was carefull to protect my original work from

plagiarism until I recieved an official copiright from Washington, D.C. I published it in 1958 and

now it´s in your hands/pc.
