The purpose of this book is to take rhythmic figures, originally learned on the snare drum, and apply them to the drumset. In doing this, the student is introduced to several cross sticking and drum-to-drum patterns using eighth, triplet and sixteenth notes. This approach to the drumset is an excellent way to develop the coordination and speed of getting around the drums with ease, while also helping with soloing.

Intended for the beginning drum student, this book contains many essential reading and playing skills for the snare and drumset. These studies are integrated in a logical, sequential order. for example, a new rhythm is introduced and studied on the snare drum, then later applied as a beat and then a fill. the same rhythm will appear later in the book for review and then in one of the play-along tunes. This way each concept is reinforced and utilized in different ways. Because of the need to stress the importance of dynamics and their role in the proper execution of playing a piece, dynamic markings are included in many of the snare drum exercises. the author has gone to extreme measures to provide a fun and humorous way of learning to play drums while at the same time implementing the fundamental tools necessary to be a proficient musician. the companion CD presents eight play-along tunes with and without the drums.

George Lawrence Stone's Stick Control is the original classic, often called the bible of drumming. In 1993, Modern Drummer magazine named it one of the top 25 drumming books of all-time. In the words of the author, this is the ideal book for improving "control, speed, flexibility, touch, rhythm, lightness, delicacy, power, endurance, preciseness of execution, and muscular coordination," with extra attention given to the development of the weak hand. This indispensable book for drummers of all types includes hundreds of basic to advanced rhythms and moves through categories of single-beat combinations, triplets, short roll combinations, flam beats, flam triplets and dotted notes, and short roll progressions.
