Gene Krupa Leave Us Leap Drum Solo 1 (Patreon)
Content
The one from the film that ends middle of the last riff. As you know, Gene's drum solo is usually very simple, very easy to understand what he's trying to do.
Though it's simple, the sticking order is a bit interesting. As you can see on the shee from the 3rd row, he's only playing the quarter notes but it's not played like "R R R R" but goes "R R L R" or something with left hand in the middle. It's making complicated sometimes, but this funny sticking is adding the special taste to its sound.
Since I'm not really familiar with how to write classical snare sheet, I only used accent marks to express the dynamics. Yes, there are so much more than what I wrote on the sheet. So it's very important to listen to what he played.
Thank you for reading so far. As always, keep swingin'!
