Barry James has just released a book that he co-wrote with Joe Morello all about how to count the famous "Stick Control" book from 1935. This book is the top selling drum lesson book of all time, and majority of the teachers throughout history haven't known how to properly count this book of R's and L's. Joe Morello and Barry were both students of George Lawrence Stone and they were working hard to keep Stone's lessons alive until Joe passed away in 2011. Barry carried on and took all the knowledge he gained from Stone and his time writing with Morello, and created "Counting Stick Control - The Key to Understanding Counting, and Playing the Exercises in 'Stick Control', The Classic Drum Method Book by George Lawrence Stone".Here is a link to help support Barry with his cancer treatments: https://www.gofundme.com/f/6azpf3-help-barry-beat-cancerGet in touch with Barry to purchase a signed first edition of "Counting Stick Control" or to book lessons with him by emailing him at [email protected] or by calling him at (1)-321-297-3042
