All Night Long Drum Lesson
Learn how to play a classic John Robinson drum beat
This Is The All Night Long Drum Lesson
Welcome to the All Night Long drum lesson. We are talking about the massive hit song by Lionel Richie of course. Yes it’s cheesy. Yes you won’t get street cred if you sing this on the basketball court.
BUT….it is an awesome tune if you’re really honest about it. And it features John J.R. Robinson on drums.
The original track has other percussion and might feature overdubs and who knows what else. Basically, any studio recording can be built up by layering different drum parts, percussion parts, programmed parts, etc. So when we play live we need to find a way to capture the important bits without needing 8 arms.
The drum lesson below breaks down the main grooves in the verse and chorus and works them in a way that means you can keep the essence of what appears on the studio recording, whilst playing on a standard acoustic drum kit.
