It involves a bit of double kick – though you could play it with one foot if you wanted.

www.joecrabtree.com Someone asked me what was going in this Vinnie groove from a 1985 drum clinic (http This video is my interpretation of what he’s playing. It’s a bit tricky – a real work out for your right foot. I explain the groove along with some suggestions regarding how to work on it (which I’ll be implementing in my own practice). Enjoy, and if you know where I can see the whole clinic please let me know! Joe Follow me on Twitter: www.twitter.com Follow me on Facebook: www.facebook.com
www.joecrabtree.com/masterclass for full lesson. Vinnie Colaiuta is on all but one track of Nik Kershaw’s 1989 album – The Works. The whole album is full of great drumming (it’s Jeff Porcaro on the remaining track!) but this fill stands out as the craziest thing on it. In this lesson I break down what’s going on in that fill. For the full explanation (youtube gave me a 10 minute limit) go to www.joecrabtree.com/masterclass The MasterClass version is 20 mins long, breaks down the whole fill and I go into more technical detail and suggest exercises to make it easier to play. For further in depth lessons on technique and creativity check out the other MasterClass lessons. Have fun, Joe
