1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing!!, September 23, 2005

This review is from: The Drum Set Crash Course, With Russ Miller (DVD)

I was SO disappointed with this DVD. I own Tommy Igoe's Groove Essentials and there is much more education on just one track of that DVD than on the whole of Russ Miller's effort. Igoe explains, breaks parts down and demonstrates like a good teacher should do; Miller spends most of the time simply playing and gives you no real idea how to truly approach each groove and practice it.
The DVD feels and looks like a scene from 90's show Melrose Place; all fashion, image and show but with no real heart.
If you want education, buy the Igoe DVD; if you want to check out leather pants, buy this one!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Average at best..., December 24, 2005

This review is from: The Drum Set Crash Course, With Russ Miller (DVD)

Russ Miller is an excellent drummer, with a distinguished resume. However, this DVD is average at best. I'm surprised that it was created in 2003, because the directing, camera work, and organization of the DVD are lacking. At times, the camera work felt more like a low budget music video, as opposed to a professional instructional DVD. Experienced drummers will be able to get something out of the DVD, but I was hoping for a little more insight. I think the premise is that you already own the book, Drum Set Crash Course, so you can follow along with the DVD. This offering could have been much better if Russ had worked with Hudson Music. There are many other instructional drumming DVDs that I would recommend over this one.
