More from Max Roach: his solo on the same tune from last post— Flossie Lou from Clifford Brown & Max Roach At Basin Street. It’s 32 bars long, and starts at 2:39.
He plays quarter notes on the bass drum through much of it but I’ve only written the accents. It’s quite audible at the beginning, and I’m not going to call it “feathering” just because that’s the only word people know for playing the bass drum that way. You’ll need to mark in stickings on several passages— whatever works for you.
I am happy to help you with any of the materials on the site, and with anything else drumming related— contact me for private lessons, online world wide, or in person in Portland, Oregon. All levels of players, and all people, are welcome.
