Seven Days Drum Sheet Music
Drum Notation for the Vinnie Colaiuta/Sting Classic
Seven Days drum sheet music in full.
This is the Seven Days drum sheet music. Seven Days was released on Sting solo album Ten Summoners Tales
The album is a masterpiece and worth listening to even if you hate Sting because it offers so many excellent examples of Vinnie playing the perfect drum part whether it’s navigating tricky odd time songs or laying down clean pop drums.
The Seven Days drum part is a groove that cleverly uses hi-hat accents in groups of four to create something even and consistent for the listener to latch on to rather than feeling a jilted five rhythm. It takes two bars to resolve.
It really is an amazing drum part and Vinnie embellishes it in a way that only Vinnie can with several real feature moments.
Time to start rocking!
