Progressive Steps to Syncopation (Book)

In every band or ensemble, the drummer is called upon to give that group a solid rhythmic foundation. Therefore it is important that every drummer has excellent music reading skills. The goal of this book is to first introduce basic music reading skills and then to explore many of the most common syncopation rhythms found in today's music.

Ted Reed's classic book is one of the greatest drumming publications ever. It's just as inspiring today as it was when it was written half a century ago.
