81 bars of 4/4 at a walking 95 BPM, 3:23 of playing, on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
82 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet.
toms through bars 1-4, ride through bars 5-44, hi-hat through bars 45-56, snare through bars 57-60, ride through bars 61-68 and hi-hat through bars 69-76, and 1 more change after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 5-7, 9-11 and 21-23, and 5 more places -- 29.6% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

95 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.
82 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 66 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
