Ultimate Realistic Rock (Book & 2 CDs)

Drumming legend Carmine Appice has once again updated the best-selling drumset book in the history of rock drumming. In addition to the classic information on basic rock rhythms and polyrhythms, linear rudiments and groupings, hi-hat and double bass drum exercises, and shuffle rhythms and syncopation exercises, Carmine has included over 20 new pages and a second CD of fresh material. The recordings have been re-mastered, with updates including three new play-along tracks and audio examples that correspond with the new sections on odd-time signatures, hands and feet combinations, and rave/dance drumming.

Subjects include: basic rock rhythms * rock polyrhythms * contemporary disco beats * syncopation exercises * hi hat studies * fills * double bass exercises * shuffle rhythms and linear rudiments. Also includes a special CD that corresponds to the exercises Appice offers in the book.
