This is a breakdown of Vinnie Colaiuta's fill in Neon Moonlight by Rosco Martinez. It happens around 3:12 in the track.

When I came to edit the video I noticed I hadn't transcribed it quite right. It's not far off and the exercises will give you all the tools you need to play the actual fill.

You can get the proper transcription for this in my drum vault at www.joecrabtree.com/lessons

Enjoy!

  • Hello mate good effort but the fill is incorrect! the sticking is RLRRLRLL KK RLRL KK RL KK RL KK F (FLAM)

  • @gilkesify My proper transcription is in the drum vault on my site. I'd pretty much agree with you but I think at the end it's LRKKLRKK as he's going down the toms.
