It cuts the song into 19 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.

74 out of 100: demanding, mostly on how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 65 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
88 bars, about 4:31 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 19 exercises over 6 sittings, about 27 minutes each.
