I refer back to it frequently.įor me, I feel my playing took a big step forward just watching him play the solos and groove bites. They have inspired me both in my own practice and as a teacher.

They inspire you to find your own meaning in them and constantly reevaluate how you do and think about things. I'd write those down and review them often. He also has some tips in there, which really can serve as proverbs for your whole musical life and development as a musician, drummer and human being. Jojo has developed every technique there to an extremne level and that is an inspiration to watch in itself. If I ever get stuck I can just look up the chapter on the DVD that explains that specific technique and see if I can get some pointers to help me move forward. What has mainly happened is that I've tried everything and from that found my own favourites. Now three years after I don't really watch it anymore, but it gave me a great start in providing me with information about all the possibilities. In particular the moeller motions, which is such a big part of my playing now, I really didn't fullly grasp until I got Jim Chapin's DVD. Also, since this was one of the first DVDs I got when I started, and I didn't have access to teachers who knew much about any of this, I need to find some additional material. It's not an end in itself when it comes to material on hand technique. It shows you what's out there in regard to hand technique and how those techniques work.

It's not about playing music and it's not really meant to go through in any particular fashion. It's an encyclopedia of hand technique and as such not your typical instructional video. It's an inspirational DVD with great production.
