What the course does

It cuts the song into 25 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 -- D -- 5 exercises, about 30 minutes.
  2. Bars 10-110 -- 2 exercises, about 19 minutes.
  3. Through the Chorus -- 3 exercises, about 28 minutes.
  4. Bars 40-97 -- 5 exercises, about 18 minutes.
  5. Bars 114-135 -- 5 exercises, about 31 minutes.
  6. Bars 118-173 -- 8 exercises, about 32 minutes.
