The 'Missing' Groove

Cissy Strut Video (with sticking)

Groove to Valerie

This is the groove to Amy Winehouse's cover of valerie and uses the 1\4 note co-ordination we've been looking at. The tempo on the track is pretty brisk so stay relaxed and don't play any part of the groove too loud or heavy. It's tight and light all the way through!!! watch out for the straight 16th note fills on the bridge into the choruses. Good Luck!!!

1/4 note groove ex 1

Here's the quarter note groove co-ordination w've been looking at. Read it carefully and one you have got it try playing it with a "swung" feel (i.e swing the bass drum part ;) )
