What the course does

It cuts the song into 23 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 -- B, C -- 2 exercises, about 29 minutes.
  2. Bars 3-65 -- 5 exercises, about 33 minutes.
  3. Through Part C and the Chorus 2 -- 3 exercises, about 27 minutes.
  4. Bars 22-47 -- 5 exercises, about 21 minutes.
  5. Through Part H and the Break -- 3 exercises, about 22 minutes. Open above.
  6. Through Part D and the Outro -- 4 exercises, about 30 minutes.
  7. The whole song -- 7 exercises, about 31 minutes.
