What the course does

It cuts the song into 74 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 -- F -- 3 exercises, about 19 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- I -- 8 exercises, about 33 minutes.
  3. The grooves the song is built on -- M (a two-bar phrase) -- 4 exercises, about 25 minutes.
  4. Bars 16-33 -- 5 exercises, about 30 minutes.
  5. Through Part I and Part O -- 3 exercises, about 21 minutes.
