The seven tracks cover a wide range of styles such as straight eighths, sixteenth feel, rock shuffle, rock ballad, Latin, straight-ahead jazz, and rock & roll.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great instructional tool,
This review is from: Ultimate Play-Along Drum Trax: Level 1 (Ultimate Play-Along Series) (Paperback)
I have both this volume and volume 2. This one (Volume 1) has a great range of styles Straight Eights, Shuffle, Sixteenths are found on both volumes 1 and 2 however with different tempos and feel. This volume has more of a "programmed" accompaniment. In other words, a lot of the bass tracks are synthesized. However, it's still a great tool to learn how to approach the various styles of music. I love both. I currently study with Dave, and use it in our sessions.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ultimate Play-Along Drum Trax: Level 1 (Ultimate Play-Along Series) (Paperback)
This is by far the least user-friendly drumming book I have purchased, and I am already having to order something to replace it with. There are no specific links between the book and the cd (such as "Track 1 - 16ths," etc.). I looked high and low for track numbers next to the written music, to no avail. Incredibly convoluted presentation of text -- lengthy, single-spaced paragraphs, often with musical notations distributed throughout, as opposed to setting it apart from the text. I am giving it 3 stars rather than 1 only because it is possible I am simply not smart enough to figure it out. Fortunately, there are so many user-friendly books out there, I won't have to tear my hair out trying to make heads or tails out of this one.
