Good video. I wish he would have gotten a bit more into the drum parts. Smitty's playing is so unique and creative in this song, the way he builds up on the snare, toms and ride cymbal during each chorus. It irks me to death to listen to cover bands play this song and totally butcher the drum parts. I know it's a tough part to play, but a good drummer should take the time to dig in to learn the part.

Here's a cool video that explains the proper drum part and the mistakes that most drummers make when playing the song.

Beato is a beast. Very well respected in the recording industry. His knowledge of music theory is insane. So his analysis carries a little more weight than most.

Excellent to hear him do this classic.
