It provides a variety of jazz ride cymbal patterns as well as coordination and reading exercises that can be played along with them. Five chapters: Ride Cymbal Patterns; Coordination Patterns and Reading; Combination Patterns and Reading; Applications; and Cymbal Reading.

Ridin' your ride in style and more!,

This review is from: Creative Timekeeping for the Contemporary Jazz Drummer (Paperback)
What a great book! If you are used to (and tired of) the standard ching ching-a-ling ching-a-ling of the jazz ride, this book will open your eyes to new patterns and styles. Layed out in a similar fashion to Chesters' "New Breed", Mattingly sets out a number of different ride patters, and follows with chapters of "coordinating patterns" to improve your playing & reading over the earlier ride patterns.If you are serious about jazz drumming, there is a lot in here for any beginning to intermediate player -- no doubt.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Great book of basic material!,

This review is from: Creative Timekeeping for the Contemporary Jazz Drummer (Paperback)
I use this book as "syncopation" material for anything in my practice.Why not the original Ted Reed's book? Well, because Creative Timekeeping organized so much better. It goes from the most basic pattern to the most difficult possible. I would buy it even for "syncopation" purpose only. Greatest material book ever!
