In this installment of the View from the Top Series I demonstrate several applications of the all-important cross-rim rimshot (also known as the cross rim click). All of these solos are inspired by the exercises in my book, Advanced Coordination for Drum Set and Hand Percussion. If you are interested in a copy, please email me at rickdior@gmail.com The snare drum I am using is a Ludwig 5x14 Black Beauty. The bass drum is a 22" x 18" Peavy Radial 1000. The Hi Hats are Sabian 13" HH Regular. The ride is a 20" Sabian Jack DeJohnette Signature.
