'Jazz Drumming Transitions' is a practical guide for any working drummer. The focus on navigating 'different feels and tempos' is spot on for varied gig demands. It equips you to confidently handle modern swing and diverse big band charts beyond the basics. While a physical book, the content is solid for quickly expanding your stylistic vocabulary on the bandstand.
