From Hal Leonard Publishing this instructional program teaches the student drummer the more advanced techniques of the skin game. Featuring the late Jeff Porcaro, highlights include discussions on straight time, triplet, and shuffle feels, bass drum pedal techniques, and a wide variation on the high-hat. Bonus instruction comes in the different looks at the grooves of the Mushanga, Rosana, and the Latin beat. Highly regarded in the music industry, Pocrcaro was the drive behind the rock group Toto before his death and worked with such top-selling recording artists as Elton John, Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, and fellow drummer Don Henley.
