My first lessons with Mr Chapin were in 1973 in New York. Last was in New Orleans around 1996 or 97. Jim loved to teach. Even when he was "yelling" at you going "no, no, no," he made you smile. He LOVED to teach. And kudos to you Mr Dior for all you are doing with your teaching on TH-cam. Jims dashboard was beat to hell. He would drive around the country going to drum shops giving lessons to any level. While using his dashboard as a practice pad. real
The Blue Book ! Did it back in the day . Doing it today . Thanks Maestro Dior . I remember when I could play Blues In The Night & it felt great . Thanks Maestro Dior . Sooo great .
I first did this book in fourth grade. Of course not playing it all that great. I was buying a pair of sticks at frank ippolitos drum shop in New York City in 1977. Next to me was some one playing single strokes at warp speed. It was Jim chapin. He took me up to the storage room. He was teaching there on a gretsch kit given to him by elvin jones. I studied with I think for 3 years before studying with Charlie persip. My dad was a commercial artist on 56th and broadway. He paid for the lessons. Hahaha. What a wonderful memory.
Great drummer Al Levitt,who I played and recorded with in 1980..introduced me to Chapin's work..A flutist and percussionist,Al helped me organize a series of exercises..Chaplin was in these..I hav the blue book…your lessons are wonderful..
Fine display of this classic book, Rick. I still enjoy playing through different sections randomly, and with different limbs: reading the ‘melody’ line on the bass drum, riding with my left hand and playing the snare line with the right hand (I’m a righty). I’m 60 but keep finding new ways of playing through these wonderful classic pages.
A Good idea is to play the snare drum slide with a left foot on a high hat by the basement. Please ghost note quarters very, very softly very subtle rim click on two and four with the left-hand and the ride cymbal rhythm with the right hand The foot playing the solo lines! You can even get into some interesting left-handed left foot “ad lib” combinations with the “solo line “
Can’t believe I stumbled on to this. I decided to break out that same book and play/learn through it again during the pandemic. Except I was focused on learning open handed playing, ride cymbal on my left and snare played with the right hand. What a challenge! That book is timeless!
Hi Rick, i had the privilege and honour to meet and have a (3 hours) master class with Jim Chapin in the 80's in Holland. Cesar Zuiderwijk the drummer of the Golden Earing organized it in his drumstudio in the Haque. Later i saw him in Germany at the music fair' Frankfurter Messe' and like "always" carrying his Real feel practice pad and map with sheetmusic under his arm, in short; he was a wonderfull person and true drumming legend. Thank you for you're amazing lessons and all the best, Richard.
Thank you! For posting Jim's book! I'm going through it again. This the most explained on video I've seen! I am throwing sticks on the wall! Lol! God Bless!
Thank you so much for this! I’m currently struggling through this book as I am not a jazz player in n the least and your videos are an incredible supplement.
Thanks for this Rick. Also got my copy in the 70s. This is the first time doing the exercises properly with a teacher. So helpful, and great fun. Brilliant!
Please please complete the entire book. It has been my nemesis off and on for many years ( Pro rock/top 40 drummer $$$). It's an amazing piece of work and I would love to see someone like yourself that appreciates it and could really do it justice. Your T-shirt speaks volume!!! That east coast drumming vibe and I love it. By the way this is the first time I've ever seen one of your videos an am really impressed. You had me with your opening roll. Thanks, you made my day.
@@rickdior Thank you. I'm sixty four and have been playing since I was nine. At my age and where I am in my career jazz is like the last frontier so I really appreciate you taking the time to pass on what you know. I love your playing /approach and wish you the best. Kip
Love the video. Looking forward to going through this again with you. Lol, I brought out Jim's book to revisit and go through with you, original price $2.50. Ive been around so long I now know enough to know, I know nothing. Thanks again.
You've managed to answer the very questions I was wondering about the book (buzz strokes, how the swing rhythm is played, etc.) when I first got it around 15-20 years ago. I plan on returning to it but I'm actually really enjoying working on Alan Dawson's method at this point.
Thanks for this, Rick. I studied this book with my teacher from 1975-77. We interpreted the tied notes as an indication of a rest on the second tied note. I don't think my teacher had a recording of the exercises by Jim, so I guess that's how he interpreted it. It doesn't appear to have had a huge negative impact on my playing but I'm just itching to go through the book again using the tied notes as buzz strokes (as originally intended).
It's just another way to play it. Not a big deal. Think long and short sounds like a horn player. Normal tied notation would silence the tied note so play it as written as well.
Jim recorded the excercises in this book. Apparently people didn't believe that all of the excercises could actually be played, so Jim proved that wasn't the case. I bought a second copy(66th printing Dec 2010) of it, just to get the (2) CDs. The downside to this version.. it's not spiral bound. It's a minor detail, but spiral bound books are much better for staying open on a music stand. So I'm happy to have both versions! :)
The book with the transparencies is book 2. I have several copies if you need one. Jim's book one is dedicated to S.A.M, Sanford Augustus Moeller. Many of the exercises in book one are based on songs/melodies which I have a list of. He also makes a reference to what would become open handed playing, in 1948.
I originally bought the book included as a pamphlet with a record in 1980s. I don't remember all those buzz strokes though. I used to listen to the records and then attempt the exercises. Checking my $5 blue printed copy, 34th printing, August1983, I guess there is some special notation for the buzzes.
I talk about this in the video if you watch the entire thing, but you can interpret the tied notes as buzzes. It's all about note length and adds some more color to your sound.
Knew Jim.quite well We did a, clinics and namm He was my mentor as my uncle Ed was on the west coast..I'd go to.gigs with Jim .. we'd also Talk about energy conservation.. Nice job Rick ..
Hi Will I did a week of recording sessions with your uncle Ed several years back when I was working with Branford Marsalis. Such a beautiful guy. Here is link to a picture of us cracking up at one of his hilarious jokes. www.acousticbarn.com/photos/shaughnessy01.jpg

I just found your channel and your handling of the Chapin book is really going to be helpful. I am retired, have dabbled with drums most of my life. I've taken lessons at different times but admittedly I'm kind of self taught. Many years ago I spent some time doing the exercises in this book, both with a teacher and on my own. I'm getting back into practicing this book and another one that I like. My goal is just to improve and become more disciplined. The other book I'm using is "Progressive Independence A Comprehensive Guide to Basic Jazz Drumming Technique" by Ron Spagnardi. As with the Chapin book, it's also an excellent book. Have you posted any videos of lessons or exercises from this book? If you are so inclined, I would really be interested in the section on Triplet Partials page 26. For example Summary Exercises 10 and 11 on pages 32 and 33. Thank you kindly.
Is your bass drum on all 4 or 1 and 3? Thanks so much. This helps me to make sure I’m accurate as I go through the Chapin book. Using my handcrafted Rick Dior practice sticks!!
Another outstanding video, Rick! My 1973 copy ($3.50 "sticker price") of the Chapin book has rhythms on the inside back cover - perhaps those were the inserts you mentioned, from the earlier edition? Following this video reminded me how much easier, complete, and more respectful it is to work with a purchased copy of a book instead of screen shots from videos. Can you tell us how to purchase *your* book (Advanced Coordination for Drum Set and Hand Percussion)? I see it on your website, but no path to order. Many thanks for your insightful and generous presentations!
This book always puzzled me the exercises at the beginning of the book I get, but the page you put up on the screen the swing ride written as 16ths with the triplets underneath I never used to understand. So really your supposed to interpret those exercises with the triplet ride cymbal groove right? Great lesson and playing!
Hi Yes...sort of. The ride cymbal will play a triplet feel for the triplet and straight 8th section, a 16th (tighter) feel for the Shuffle16th section and 16th's for the 16th section. You will need to be elastic. As I put up the rest of the book it will become clear.
@@rickdior makes total sense now thank you for the explanation, something that has taken me a few years to understand, total resolved by your great teaching and playing! Thank you Rick!
Hi, can someone explain me plesee in 14:55 wheb said "first quarter will be played in 140.....and then in 180".......what does these 140 & 180 refer to? Thanks and pardon my ignorance 😊
I study the Ted Reed´s Syncopation with a jazz pattern on my leading hand and hi hat. I read the method with triplet feel and also with straight eight notes. Is this (eight notes) really practical? I mean , can I use straight eight notes in the snare drum when playing with jazz feel? Thank you!
Hi Yes, you can use any subdivision you want. You may not want to play constant straight 8ths under a triplet ride pattern but you can use them sparingly. Drummers such as Elvin Jones, Billy Higgins and Joe Chambers, just to name a few, used straight 8ths at times in their soloing and time playing.
Something I struggle with big time is fills and hits in swing/big band music. Do you have any recommendations for how to improve on these? Brilliant content.
This is gem! and lovely drum set btw 🤗 I've got a newbie question, how do you actually count the L hand and the R hand following Jim's instructions for those part A exercises?? I understand these are not triplets, right? Cheers
@@rickdior No offense was meant. I apologize. I finished the book in 1974. I play as a hobby now. Recorded at Bell Sound, Vanguard, etc. etc. I didn't watch the entire video. Been there done that. Sorry. Again, no offense was meant. Kudos to you for the knowledge you share.
Great lessons. You moved to North Carolina? Damn. I thought you were still up north near New York because when things got safer I would’ve wanted to take one on one lessons.
@@rickdior I recently moved and gave most of my library to my younger friends in the field but I believe I kept Vol. 2. I’ll try to locate it. It’s a workbook you’ll never finish. I’ve only seen less than 4 or 5 copies

Great lesson and introduction, thanks!
Can someone remind me to come back if they see this comment more than 5 years in the future? I think 18 year old me would love this
