Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community - View Single Post - a little help from the drummers/musicians of TFP...?

ok, so I had a set of drums when I was a kid, and I learned (barely) how to keep time....fast forward 25 years and I bought a set recently. decided that if I was ever going to indulge in my fantasy that I can be a halfway competent musician...now is the time.

so, what I need from yinz is this: some song recommendations

I need some really simple stuff in the classic rock vein to cut my teeth on, develop my chops, as it were.

I mean REALLY simple.

No, I mean REALLY, REALLY, REALLY simple...straight time, little or no syncopation, no fancy fills, etc.

I have to ask because 95% of the stuff I have is much more complicated than I can do right now (or maybe ever...Neil Peart and Bonham are NOT for beginners).

to give you an example of where I am...one of the songs I've been working on is Donnie Iris' "Love is like a rock" which is very basic, percussion-wise. I've got it about 80% down, after playing along with it about 2 dozen times.

so whatcha got for me TFP?
