Drum Lesson: Mike Clark on Herbie Hancock’s “Actual Proof“

This free drum lesson, brought to you by Drums Anytime and Mark Letalien, looks at the first eight bars of Herbie Hancock’s song “Actual Proof,“ with the drum performance by the great Mike Clark. Transcription included! FYI: I talk for a while before getting into the playing. Sorry! If you want to go right to the playing example: fast forward the video to approx 1:19. Also, I left a few accents out of the transcript, but you should hear them during the performance.
