Let's learn to play "Ticket To Ride" by The Beatles. It was originally released on their 1965 album Help! The main groove that Ringo Starr plays in this song is very unique, especially for rock n' roll music of that time. It's a great example of a groove that uses flams.

Good for beginners looking to follow a path

I reviewed many of the sights and what I like about simpledrummer is a) there’s a sequence; be) it seems holistic; meaning many of the core aspects of drumming are covered and c) he goes SLOW. So many of the other sites make you feel inferior because they love to show off their speed and chops.
