A must-have for any beginning or intermediate drummer! July 9, 2008
This is a great DVD!
This DVD provides a wealth of information on the grooves behind all sorts of popular music and world music too. Igoe is an amazingly talented drummer with a gift for instruction, and this DVD is just the ticket for anyone wanting to learn to play. This video will give you what you need to develop your skills a lot!
if u wanna learn,and wanna have fun,u need this.. May 25, 2008
My suggestion is buy this DVD along with the play along CD which also comes with the book,and ur learning will be complete.i learned notations hardly a month back.but still i can read almost all the grooves in this DVD.just listen to what Mr igoe is playing n keep looking at the poster provided in the DVD or the book which comes with the play along CD , n u will understand everything what he's doing.good fun..i think every drummer,beginner as well as pro needs it in the collection..

One of the best laid out DVDs I've seen so far. He has a teaching methodology that he uses consistently through out the 47 grooves he teaches -- covering rock, jazz, funk, latin, etc. If you've ever wondered how a certain beat is done and done well, this is where to start. Tommy shows each hand and foot separately and then combines slowly, then does it fast. Not any wasted talking like on the Bissonette DVD or even the Morello. This is an excellent resource.
cool stuff September 26, 2007
Great stuff. There are many Rock Grooves, but there are many styles covered.
And there is a poster with all the covered grooves in it. Well worth it.

Finally, a drum instruction video that actually teaches you to play something useful on the drums! I own the Steve Smith video and Neil Peart Work in Progress, both very enjoyable and informative, but nothing for my beginning level of drumming. I can copy their rhythms, but Tommy shows how to build grooves from the ground up and lets you play along at 2 tempos. This has been great in helping me learn independence, many styles of rhythms, and it's fun to watch. He's an excellent and encouraging instructor and this video (with poster of the grooves tabbed out) is worth every penny.
