solid set of exercises to build the feet

This book will definitely help you build up your chops with your feet, in addition to potentially helping you uncover some problems with hand/feet independence. This book is worth it in terms of both money and time invested.


Double Bass in your face!

Joe does one of the greatest jobs of using double bass drum playing. He doesn't over do it in this book. The book gets you using your feet in all areas of drumming. Fills, Patterns and Rhythms. It helps you develop you brain to use you feet as equal. You will not just be some double bass trash metal drummer after this book. You learn how to use you feet equal with your hands in fills and other techniques around the set.

Brilliant!

When I first got the book I felt a bit disapointed since it lacked a lot of text, I felt "man, I wish he'd talk about things like how to maintain good balance, good posture, etc."... but overtime, through the exercises and going for really slow up, I've realized that as I practice the exrecises in front of a mirror, I learn how to balance myslef properly through trial and error
All I can say is, after just 9 of the 16-note exercises, I'm double peddling away at songs I nevedr thought possible before! Just as long as you really take your time to learn each exercise properly... you will gain a lot!

Top notch double bass drum book

I have been playing drums since 1979 but only in the last year have I gone double bass. Some say you can't teach an old dog new tricks or it is really difficult to re-wire your brain to use the 'other' foot, but the way this book is written is perfect. It starts with simple activities that you need to master in order to move on. I highly recommend it.

For my fellow lefty drummers, he doesn't use L and R but he uses B.D.1 and B.D.2 which is refreshing.

Thank you Joe!



Joe Franco presents an organized discussion of this powerful and consistent sound in a method he calls 'The Single Stroke System.' Focusing on beats, fills and soloing over the double bass roll, this book provides practical applications that will guide a single bass player into the world of playing two bass drums. Spiral-bound.
