The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 47-49, 51-53 and 89-91, and 3 more places -- 21.4% of every bar the kit plays. This one moves around more than most: the beat is where to start, not the whole job.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 31 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 -- O, L -- 3 exercises, about 25 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- F -- 6 exercises, about 30 minutes.
  3. Bars 11-26 -- 3 exercises, about 22 minutes. Open above.

57 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 27 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
