  • id love to learn how to play this

  • @ajcf1995

    Hi, and yeah! It is one great drum solo! Are you familiar with these rudiments: the Seven Stroke Roll, the Paradiddle, and the Flam? If that is the case you're on your way! Let met tell you this: It took me quite some time to learn it, and years of drumming has taught me to be patient. I learned the solo piece by piece, practising only a few measures at a time and beginning at a slow tempo.Then gradually playing longer phrases until I could play the whole solo. Good luck!

  • DO YOU HEAR THE DRUMMING OF THE 99%!

  • what kind of sticks were you using?

  • @thedarkwizardable

    Hi, the sticks are made by Cooperman and the stick model is Greg Zuber "Samurai". Good drumsticks, the Coopermans.

  • For your information, November 4th My show titled "The Gene Krupa Story" premieres in Balingen Germany . We hope to have more cities in Europe. The USA dates have been very successful. You might want to see the promo clip on YOUTUBE, Gene Krupa Story 2011 ARTHOR....Good Luck....

  • @2LOUD2LOUD

    Thanks for information, and good luck with the show! Krupa is certainly one of my absolute favourites, and I have spent some time studying his drum methods, which I find to be among the best. Not an easy drummer to copy, Krupa, I think, but the drummer in the video clip you referred to does i very well!

  • Excellent...... Thanks for putting this out . It reminds me of my 1st teacher Al Miller who was a NY State snare drum champ. I think I'll go in my studio tomorrow, dig out the old books and woodshed.......

  • @2LOUD2LOUD

    Hi, Thanks for kind comment! Funny, I used to own a drum book by Al Miller when I was a teenager. At that time I bought quite a few drum books from the USA and got them to Norway where knowledge of jazz and rock drumming was hard to find. Yeah! pick up the books and sticks and have fun!

  • Great sound, great performance. Really enjoyed it.

  • @Northeagle66

    Hi, thanks! Glad you liked the performance of this famous drum solo.

  • Drum sounds really good and nice moeller skill.

  • @MoustacheCloud

    Hi, thanks for your comment. 

  • Would this solo be too hard for a high school student?

  • @KonguAwesome

    No, it shouldn't be too hard. However you need to be familiar with the Seven Stroke Roll, the Flam and the Paradiddle. When learning such a musical piece as The Downfall of Paris, I start out slowly, learing it bit by bit, at very slow tempos to begin with, focusing on accuracy. I use the Moeller tecnique as decribed by Jim Chapin, using weighth of my arms to create the accents, and wrist strokes for the soft strokes. The sticking pattern on the video is from The Moeller Book.

  • Are those drumsticks from Cooperman?

  • @betaniini1

    Yes, they are Cooperman drumsticks and called Greg Zuber "Samurai". Very good drumsticks for snare drum and practise pad work.

  • better than most of the othershit that's here xD

  • @TheLordZixx
