The Real Gene Krupa Floor Tom Tom rhythms in Sing, Sing, Sing by Kevin Dorn.

The Real Gene Krupa Floor Tom Tom Rhythms in Sing, Sing, Sing by Kevin Dorn is a wonderful lesson on Gene Krupa’s rhythms, beats, sticking, accents, double notes, ghost notes, rim shots and stick shots. He studied Gene’s drumming techniques since High School and at first thought the floor tom tom sticking was single beats (no). In these lessons he explains and demonstrates the what, when and how to play them. Also he talks about how Gene over his career did play new and older rhythms. There really isn’t just one set of beats he played to Sing, Sing, Sing. In this video Gene plays on the floor tom tom. In other recordings he also plays the other tom tom too.

He has followed the greats in drumming and can name probably over 30 to 40 drummers from the 1920’s to the 1950’s. All of them made drumming great. If you watch t
