Drums
– Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
– By The Beatles
– Drummer – Ringo Star
Here is the main beat of the “Intro” and “Verse’s” of the song, using the low tom to drive the song.
This is the fill used in the intro, one thing you wanna watch out for is Ringo was a left handed drummer, so some of the sticking might feel backwards but playing it this way helps lead into the next drum you need to hit.
Here is our Deconstruction Video on the “Intro” and “Verse” beats of the song
In this Deconstruction Video we are going to break down the main parts of the song at faster tempos.
Part 3 – Just the fills and only the fills!
Spending more time look at each of these fills as they all have a bit of uniqueness to them. Check them out below for all the different stickings. Work thru them at slow tempos and build up speed over time.
This Deconstruction will break down the fills at a slow and medium tempos.
The Hardest Fill to play!
Between the sticking and the movement on the toms this can be a hard beat to play, take it slow and take your time, you can always take away one element of the playing (take away the kick drum) to make the beat easier for you to play.
This Deconstruction will break down the “Hardest fill in the song” So you can learn it for yourself!
