Hi Rick, sounding beautiful and great lesson, thanks. Having scoured the internet, I'm guessing Les's book is out of print. I can't seem to find any digital versions either. Do you have any leads to help with sourcing? Thanks!
Hi Rick, just curious but I had a question about the Les Parks grip. As you probably know one of the crazier aspects of the grip is the pinky finger being curled up under the fourth finger. I was curious if you knew whether Les developed the pinky tuck later on, or if he had reverted away from it when you knew him. From personal experiences the pinky tuck feels way too tight to use, but it does feel pretty good at slower tempos using those five & drum heights.
Love this. Sounds Crazy Army ish. Snare sounds great too.
that drum sounds great!

Hi
Not sure about that.
It was a bit different, and I have trouble playing with that grip, but it sure worked well for them.
Hi Rick, thanks.
It is really good to be able to see and hear your rendition and insights into the Les Parks work.
Best wishes from Australia
