Please visit my website drumdna.com for more lessons, exercises and play-along practice workouts.

I love Virgil's drumming. I first heard him when I was 12 and it changed my life. I'm making these analysis videos to help shed some light on what he plays and how he constructs a drum solo. Bear in mind, he improvises like this! This isn't a preconceived solo. His musical logic is astounding. I always find hidden gems in his solos, so a big part of the video is me taking them and messing around with them.
