    Without a doubt, the most important groove I have learned in the last 30 years is Take 5. Even if you are not a jazz drummer, taking the time to learn this very strange beat, will improve your independence immensely. It is frustrating at the start, because your mind has to free itself from at least 2 of your appendages, if not 3. But after a couple weeks - at least for me - one can start injecting fills that you never would have thought possible. This one groove has made me a much better drummer. I practice it every time I sit down at my set. Thank you Brandon.

      Its just a standard rock beat, it’s true this beat is recognised by a lot of people, but the same beat was used in thousands of songs before that one. I’d say beat it should of been on the list though.

    Alex Van Halen’s “Hot For Teacher” groove is derived from Billy Cobham’s “Quadrant “. The groove was also played by Simon Phillips on Jeff Beck’s “ Space Boogie” with part of it played in 7/4 time. It’s been used a lot since “Hot For Teacher” including Steve Vai’s “The Audience Is Listening “ and Joe Satriani’s “Satch Boogie”. Steve Morse’s “ Cruise Missle” is also worth a listen. Great stuff . Thanks for posting this awesome video.

    I previously learned all these beats from Wipe Out as a 10-year-old challenge to a 70-year-old practicing to perfect the Gadd and Stubblefield. Though I disagree that that the Queen beat is worthwhile, I love your clarity and friendly non-jive attitude that tends to plague so many online drummers. Great work. Interesting choices.

    Great job Brandon!
    The problem for many drummers for the Ballroom Blitz intro will be landing the kick on the left-hand in bars three and four. I've played 'Sing Sing Sing' with a Big band (but the accents shown on my chart were simpler) and I play 'Take Five' quite often. 'Cissy Strut' has thus far eluded me! 'Superstition' always seems to have tempo problems. 'You're not playing it fast enough' or 'it's too fast' - even though the two might indeed have the same tempo! :) I've learnt '50 Ways' a few different ways - but less than 50. 'Come Together' - yes some controversy! :) Rosanna's a challenge. Although simple I've never used tom-toms for the Queen track!
    Only criticism: The hi-hats were too low in the mix (for me).
    Cheers!

      I could not agree more, Jeff Porcaro is probably the most underrated of highly rated drummers (if that makes any sense). I have always said the greatest musicians are session musicians and Toto proves it. Most rock drummer lists tend to put Porcaro in the 20s to 40s in rank but I truly think he is a top 10 or top 5 drummer of all time. He was taken way too soon.

      @@Thenorthsace ... you're right. Ginger Baker never added any scales to the rudiments scale. So perhaps that statement should be... Ginger Baker is no John Bonham. Which is why I said... Bonham is the real Shady. Don't get me wrong... Ginger Baker is great. So was Bill Ward. Very highly competent drummer. But there's only one... La Beasto!

    I'd love to watch you analyze the drum track of "Fire" by Jimi Hendrix. I don't think I've ever heard anyone reproduce what Mitch Mitchell is doing on that song. Another song with an awesome drum track is "Brother To Brother" by Gino Vannelli(Nakis does a great cover of it). Also check out the drum cover of Rush's "XYZ" by Kevan Roy. Halfway through that video he does something that even Neil Peart doesn't do. I think it's the most remarkable piece of drumming I've ever heard! One last candidate for analysis from my perspective is Alan White's drum work on the Yessongs version of "Yours Is No Disgrace".

    A couple details I noticed.... the bass drum part in Walk this Way is more shuffly than he is playing it. Also in Smells like Teen Spirit Dave is actually playing eighth notes on the hi-hat in the intro/chorus, not quarter notes. It just gets drowned out because of the open hi-hats. You can see him playing eighth notes in the live video clip.

Ballroom Blitz...Trying to play with the second note being a left hand snare and then trying to keep it going in that same fashion, LR, LR...after one round, my hands decide to do something completely different. I was always taught to start a roll with the right hand and now I really need to concentrate real hard to play that song. I almost have it down, after 35 years of drumming...LOL.

      @David Hasselhoff If you play the 16ths as 8ths is legitimately, in every sense, a basic rock groove. The song is only 88 beats per minute. The difficulty is in it's simplicity not it's technical necessity.
