"This book is incredibly comprehensive in its scope. It ranges from the physical mechanics involved in proper hand technique all the way to developing greater four-way independence on the drum set. Stylistically it covers so much territory as well, from rock to Latin all the way to Elvin Jones-style bebop. It's the hippest book I have seen in a long time!" - Tris Imboden (Chicago, Kenny Loggins)
"I've known Bruce for many years and I'm also a former student. He's one of my favorite teachers. A disciple of the legendary Freddie Gruber, Bruce takes what he learned from Freddie to another level. He's a master of movement and his exercises are very effective in building solid technique and relaxation. Thank you, B!" - David Garibaldi (Tower of Power)
