## Description

Expanding on the information in his award-winning Code of Funk, world-renowned drummer David Garibaldi demonstrates and dissects the patterns he used for such Tower of Power classics as "Page One," "Pocketful of Soul," "Back in the Day," "East Side", and "The Oakland Stroke." Multiple camera angles clearly show his feet, hands, and kit, putting the viewer one-on-one with the master drummer and teacher.

Review: Cool video for the funk player - I always admired DG with Tower and this video is a great one if you like to play funk on the drums. He covers the importance of ghosting the notes and using two different stick heights during your playing. Simple, yet informative. The only thing I regret is not having listened to the CD "Code of Funk" before watching the DVD, since DG spends a great deal of time dissecting the grooves on the tunes on this CD. It would have been more fulfilling if I had the listening knowledge of hearing the tunes before they were broken down. All in all, a good DVD from a great funk drummer. Makes you feel like you are taking a lesson from him, especially towards the end of the DVD when he is sort of instructing. Well worth it if you are into funk playing. Could help rock players as well.

### ⭐⭐⭐ not what I expected.
*by D***R on April 29, 2014*

Dave's style is great and by the title I expected more information related to how he plays what he does, not a explanation of music software and making practice loops. The price was low enough, but the information was geared towards a certain level player. Taking a groove and slowing it down and explaining "the code" as he put it, was what I was looking for.
