Hmmm, for some reason that hyperlink didn't work. Just cut and paste this: http://home.earthlink.net/~prof.sound/index.html
Shoni, what size is the drum? What kind of condition is it in, i.e. the shell, bearing edges, tension lugs, that sort of thing? Is it a vintage Slingerland?
Alex has good advice. Besides Youtube, here is an online resource that can provide a lot o...
Show-off! You are awesome, girl! I loved it! I saw Sonny Emory do those stick-tricks and you nailed them.
You'd be surprised at how many "drummers" can't hold down a "straightforward beat". You don't have that problem and I always enjoy your vids because you always look like you are having so much fun.
The fills will come. Your time is spot on, though, so the base is there. I enjoyed it -keep 'em coming. BTW, I also liked the snare sound you picked on this one.
Nice!
You nailed it! And it looked like you were really enjoying it. But turn that set away from the wall and you'll feel like you're really playing to a room.
Liked it! Didn't even look like you were breathing hard!

- Stack-so true! Actually, the simplest grooves are what I deal with right now. I've come up with some of my own, but I guess I'm in a mindspace to want to play what I hear almost to the T because it just sounds so good. Displacement of beats-I think that's what you mean-, and accenting are all part of it, I think. I was watching Purdie, and that's what I saw. With his ghost notes, he hardly left the drum, but he slammed his stick right into the head on the played notes. In the end, though, it's probably mostly feel. When I try to play what some well-known drummer has played, I get caught up in what to play, and forget to inject myself into it. I'd like to think I can do it. There's a balance somewhere.-Jessica G.

- Hi Stack-thanks for your encouragement. I just had to learn it. That's the sort of stuff that I hear that just lifts me out of my seat! I'm getting into Bernard Purdie now. I'm going to work more on dynamic with my left hand.-Jessica G.
