Drumming legend Steve Gadd has created several lesson packs exclusively for Drum Guru! In these lessons, Steve shares many of the signature concepts, grooves and fills that have made him one of the most popular, important, and imitated drummers in the history of the instrument.
This is Steve Gadd Pack 1: Rudimental Concepts Part 1. In this pack, Steve covers ideas based on the rudiments. Each of these ideas have become a signature for Steve, and he shows how they are all based on simple rudimental stickings. For instance, Steve takes a simple ratamacue and turns it into one of the best-known tom fills/licks in modern drumming.
