ABOUT THIS DRUM PART

How to play Come And Get It on drums

79 bars, 4:20, at 73 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, hi-hat, snare and kick and nothing else.

56 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 30 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.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- D, H -- 2 exercises, about 24 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- I -- 3 exercises, about 27 minutes.
  3. Bars 7-21 -- 5 exercises, about 31 minutes.
  4. Bars 14-54 -- 5 exercises, about 29 minutes. Open above.
