Questions

What BPM is Angels With Dirty Faces?

96 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.

Is Angels With Dirty Faces hard to play on drums?

61 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 32 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

104 bars, about 4:20 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 40 exercises over 11 sittings, about 27 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Angels With Dirty Faces?

8 fills to learn, played 10 times: bars 24, 32, 36, 40, 44, 52 and 4 more.
