Music : Percussion - Drums

    

     Learning to drum began back when you started tapping on a book or anything you can find. If you like your rhythm or want to improve it playing the drum is great. With low priced started packs and the many free online lessons and tips, it can be very easy to get started in drumming. Learn some basics and get some free tabs to start playing along to any song!

One of Led Zeppelins best songs "When the Levee Breaks" has one of the best drum beats ever to be recorded. The late John Bonham is famous for recording the drum part in a stairwell at Headley Grange with the microphones planted 3 stories up. This gave the drums a echoed and innovative sound. *To you Led Zeppelin fans I have a special gift for you here.

Good Luck and Have Fun,

Duncan Davis
