MusicLab2000 Presents a great sample of exercises drawn from his Warner
Brothers publications shown below. Beginning with some simple patterns to
demonstrate the 'Garibaldi' signature style, the learner quickly moves into the
hip synchopated grooves David is so famous for.
Listen to the examples, first with and without the accompaniement, and then 'have a go' at becoming the next Dave Garibaldi.
** Remember . . . you can slow down and speed up the exercises to match your ability and you can mute and solo the drums so you can 'become the drummer' as you play along with the rhythm section.
