Welcome to ultimate drumming.com. I'm Jim McCall. And I'm going to show you another great sounding eighth note rock and roll beat. First I'm going to play it for you at several different tempos and I'm going to break it down note by note and show you how it works. In order to play this really popular rock and roll beat first you have to count eighth notes. eighth notes are counted one and two and three and four and now I'm gonna play the ride pattern with the right hand counting eighth notes can play it on the symbol or the Hi Hat one and two and three and four and one and two and three and 12341 and two, and three, and one and two, and three, and four.

Now we're going to add the snare drum. The snare drum is going to go on beats two and four. Every time I say beats two and four, I'm going to play the snare drum in unison with the ride pattern, one and two, and three, and four and one in. Now we're going to add the bass drum. The bass drum is going to be played on beats one and three. It's gonna go like this.

One and two and three and four. Now once you get good at that tempo, we're going to speed it up a little bit. What? Two, three and four. Now we're gonna put some serious speed behind it. What You've just learned another really great rhythmic combination at ultimate drumming, calm, new videos and less than should be an added weekly.
