What the course does

It cuts the song into 35 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 -- I -- 3 exercises, about 21 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- N -- 3 exercises, about 20 minutes.
  3. The grooves the song is built on -- F -- 2 exercises, about 17 minutes.
  4. Through Part G -- 3 exercises, about 33 minutes.
  5. Bars 5-21 -- 4 exercises, about 29 minutes.
  6. Through the Chorus and Part F -- 3 exercises, about 25 minutes.
  7. Bars 30-45 -- 4 exercises, about 28 minutes.
  8. Through the Chorus 2 and Part N -- 5 exercises, about 29 minutes. Open above.
  9. and 4 more sittings after that.
