John Blackwell DVD Added To Hudson Masters Series

Most drummers know John Blackwell, you’ve either heard or seen him as Prince’s drummer or you’ve seen his instructional videos. Not only is he an amazing player, who combines the best aspects of rock, R&B, hip-hop and funk, but he is also an expert stick-twirler and showman.

“Hudson Music announces the latest addition to its Master Series of drum instruction DVDs — John Blackwell: Master Series.”

“The three-hour DVD is divided into two main sections. In the first section, Blackwell performs with an all-star band and then explains and demonstrates the drum parts. Not only does the master drummer discuss the way the song and groove evolved along with the specific techniques that are involved in the performance, he demonstrates the patterns at normal and slow speeds to provide students with a deeper, fuller understanding of the parts and their musical context.”

If you haven’t yet checked out Blackwell’s drumming I highly recommend doing so online. If you are impressed by what you see his DVD’s are a worthwhile purchase, or at the very least, early ideas for your Christmas list.
