What the course does

It cuts the song into 70 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.

71 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 77 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

201 bars, about 3:47 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 70 exercises over 23 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?
