 Rating:  - Steve Smith-Drumset Technique/History of the U.S. Beat DVDMr. Smith is a consummate drummer. Educated in technique he conveys his playing style in very enjoyable "drum lesson style" sessions. He breaks down everything from grip to bass drum technique. It is like having him come to your home for private lessons. If you work with him to absorb and understand, your playing will improve vastly (IF you practice).

Probably a little much if you are a beginner. He does a great job of breaking down each component of a drummers skill set. He does not just blow things by the student -- he really seems to want to teach you. And he succeeds at it. Bissonette's DVD does not even come close.

It's so good to learn and ear him!! Enjoy!!! Rating: - Steve Smith DVDThis DVD is very informative. Steve breaks drum set playing down to a simple, easy to understand format. People who aren't even drummers have enjoyed watching this DVD. There also is footage showing why he is a "drummer's drummer". Browse for similar items by category:
