Book Reviews of Tommy Igoe Groove Essentials 2.0 - The Play-Along Book/CD

Book Review: Not for the beginner
Summary: 3 Stars

Brought this item for my 13 year old who is learning the drums. After watching Tommy I's 1st video on setting up and playing the drums it was clear that he is very complete and is an interesting teacher. However Groove Essentials 2.0 is a CD and a music book. My son hasn't learned how to read music yet and G.I. 2.0 doesn't provide any video instruction on how to play along with these grooves. G.I. is great if you want to put the music on your MP3 player and play along but as a learning tool it doesn't hit the mark.

Summary of Tommy Igoe Groove Essentials 2.0 - The Play-Along Book/CD

The second edition of the best-selling original Groove Essentials features a book and CD package with 53 brand new grooves and over 100 variations for intermediate to advanced players. Students will learn the difference between ghost and grace notes (while being encouraged to experiment with both in all six groove "families") as well as important "go-to" grooves, like the Train and Bo-Diddley beats. For more advanced players and professionals, GE 2.0 introduces the concepts of groove construction, interpretation and manipulation- training drummers to think like musicians in order to maximize their full potential. The companion play-Along book and CD contain over 90 tracks, including every song from the DVD in their full-length versions, minus the drums; allowing drummers to expand their skills by playing any of the grooves with a band and recording themselves on audio or video (optional) to help facilitate the learning process. These tracks also supply a variety of fill-in and soloing opportunities to challenge advanced players. In addition, the book features Igoe's extended "global tours" that will test even the most seasoned professional's chops, creativity and stamina and, as a "first of its kind" bonus, there is a full-length orchestral play-along track designed to provide a taste of playing in a full orchestra, complete with multiple moving tempos, dynamics and feels!
