(Percussion). This new book takes the beginning drummer through the paces from reading simple exercises to playing great grooves and fills. Each lesson includes a preparatory exercise and a solo. Concepts and rhythms are introduced one at a time, so growth is natural and easy. Features large, clear musical print, intensive treatment of each individual drum figure, solos following each exercise to motivate students, and more! I highly recommend (this book) to students and teachers. The information is easy to understand and progresses at a good pace. Joe Porcaro

IMPORTANT: This quarter-note exercise should be played at a steady, slow tempo. Count aloud, even during the rests. Practice each staff until it is perfect before going on to the next.
SOLO 1
(on the Pad)
IMPORTANT: Play this quarter-note solo without pausing. Again, it is important to count aloud and play at a steady tempo.
NOTES :
QUARTER-NOTE RHYTHMS
(on the Drums)
IMPORTANT : Play Ex. 1 and make certain that your quarter notes have a consistent tone and steady rhythm. After you can play the exercise accurately, the first beat of the bar can be practiced together with the bass drum (Ex. 2). After youve mastered that, practice each exercise on this page one after the other, until you can flow easily from one to the nextwhile maintaining a steady tempo. Also try playing with the right hand on the ride cymbal instead of the hi-hat.
SOLO 1.1
(on the Drums)
IMPORTANT : This entire page should be played without pausing. The right hand can play either the hi-hat or the ride cymbal for accompaniment. Practice slowly. Count aloud.
EIGHTH NOTES
(and Quarter Notes)
IMPORTANT: When playing this example, youll need to count 1 and, 2 and, 3 and, 4 and, etc. (which is notated as 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +). Note that the hand order of each exercise consistently alternatesalways hand to hand. This means that every beat (1, 2, 3, and 4) is played with the right hand, and every + with the left hand (or vice-versa!). Maintain the hand-to-hand sticking at all costs. Practice each staff slowly and individually.
SOLO 2
(on the Pad)
IMPORTANT: Play through this solo without pausing. Pay attention to the hand order (again, it alternates consistently). Keep a steady tempo. Practice slowly at first.
NOTES :
EIGHTH-NOTE GROOVES
(on the Drums)
IMPORTANT: When playing these eighth-note grooves we employ a method of counting (1 and, 2 and, 3 and, 4 and, etc .) that is used throughout the book, while at the same time we learn the most typical rhythms of rock and pop drumming. Accompany each exercise once with the hi-hat and once with the ride cymbal. Play slowly. Count aloud. Practice each staff individually.
FILLS ON THE DRUMS
(Eighth Notes)
IMPORTANT: These examples, on the drums, are fills and should be practiced in the same manner as the previous exercises on the pad. The hand order remains the same. This exercise should be played only with the handsdont add your feet yet. It is very important to play slowly and count aloud.
EIGHTH-NOTE FILLS
(with Crash Cymbal)
IMPORTANT: Now we will begin using the crash cymbal. The crash cymbal is always played exactly together with the bass drum. Striking one instrument slightly before the other is undesirable, as the punctuation we intended will be lost. Play slowly. Count aloud. Practice each staff individually.
EIGHTH-NOTE GROOVES
(with Crash Cymbal)
IMPORTANT: Here, for the first time, the crash cymbal is used as part of the groove. The accompaniment can be played once with the hi-hat and once with the ride cymbal. Play slowly at first. Count aloud. Play each staff individually.
NOTE :
GROOVES AND FILLS
(Eighth Notes)
IMPORTANT: Now eighth-note grooves are combined with eighth-note fills. Count evenly and continuously to successfully incorporate the fill into the flow of the groove. Play slowly. Count aloud. Practice each staff individually.
SOLO 2.1
(on the Drums)
IMPORTANT: This eighth-note solo should be played without pausing between staves. Play slowly. Count aloud. Practice each staff individually.
EIGHTH NOTES
(with Eighth Rests)
IMPORTANT: Dont forget to count during the rests. Pay attention to the hand order. The downbeats (1, 2, 3, and 4) will be played with one hand, while the upbeats (the and s) will be played with the other hand. Practice each staff individually and slowly.
SOLO 3
(Eighth Notes and Rests)
IMPORTANT: Count aloud. Practice each staff individually. Pay attention to the hand order. Play through without stopping.
