What the course does

It cuts the song into 39 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

47 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 4 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

128 bars, about 3:08 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 39 exercises over 12 sittings, about 25 minutes each.
