I have been playing/teaching drums since 1964, and never have I found a more timeless text for achieving superior technical control. Straightforward and simply written, the exercises in this book build upon each other in complexity, the end result being improvement in dynamics, speed & dexterity. To quote the author George L. Stone "an hour a day with STICK CONTROL will work wonders for one, whether he be rudimental exhibitionist or concert drummer, student or expert, jazz drummer or symphonist . . ."
