Hi! Sorry this is so late. Will Practise these fills one at a time. You can hear how they sound in this video. Loop the fill (by itself) over and over again until you feel confident playing it. Then play three bars of any drum beat you'd like followed by one bar of the fill. Again, that's three bars of [...]
Aidan Here's the sheet music for Spanish Joint. Learn as much or as little as you'd like. Try playing along to as much of the recording as you can. I haven't notated every part of the song because a lot of it is heavily improvised (e.g., at the end of choruses). We can learn how to improvise in these sections [...]

Jonathan Here is the Praise the Lord beat.The bass drum notes are confusing with all the crazy beaming. The easiest way to read the bass drum notes is to play them at the same time as the hi-hat notes above them.The first two (of the three) rim clicks are connected with a curved line called a "tie". In this particular [...]
