These are a few exercises that helped me develop my fast swing. In this jazz drum lesson I talk about:
- How to get the right hand ride pattern faster
- How to practice comping patterns with the fast ride pattern
Another video on my channel is a cover of a transcription of "Four" from a Miles Davis live album, with the great Tony Williams on drums. The exercises I go over in this video were indispensable for getting to cover that tune. Here's a link to that cover of "Four" from Four and More, Miles Davis (Tony Williams on drums):
