Wouldn't teach without it!

I've had copies of this book since the early seventies. I teach out of and use this book almost as often as I use my metronome. A must have--from day one beginners to jazz swingers to rockers to freakishly independant polyrhythmic prog-ers.

THE DRUMMERS BIBLE

THIS IS A MUST FOR ANYONE SERIOUS ABOUT PLAYING DRUMS AND LEARNING THE ART OF INDEPENDENCE AND SYNCOPATION, I CANNOT SEE ANY TEACHER NOT USING THIS BOOK TO TEACH THE ART OF DRUMMING AND I CANNOT SEE ANY STUDENT WHO CAN DRIVE A BAND NOT BEING EXPOSED TO THIS BOOK....
