Up Close & In Session by Steve Gadd
is a new, revised and updated version of material
from the classic DCI music videos that put video drum
education on the map. Prepared under Steve’s supervision,
this new book combines all of the footage from the classic

tapes with an expanded book documenting Steve’s
influential approach to the drums. The original Up Close

was the first authorized book from Steve Gadd. Featured
are detailed transcriptions of the material

that Steve performs on the video.

Up Close focuses on three main topics:
drum corps/rudiments, including a rudimental solo

and how to apply rudiments to the drum set; jazz/R&B, featuring a shuffle and five-page solo transcription;
time/studio playing, demonstrating how to build a track
in the studio (including fills), chart reading, samba
and Latin grooves, as well as transcriptions of

“Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover” and
“Late in the Evening,” by Paul Simon.

In Session features Steve playing in a recording studio
with two different rhythm sections, playing different
styles of music. Accompanied by Richard Tee (piano)
and Will Lee (bass), then by Eddie Gomez (upright bass),
and Jorge Dalto (piano), Steve plays different approaches
to R&B, reggae, shuffles, funk, samba, bebop,
and Latintunes to show how he crafts his parts.
These performances are documented in
note-for-note new transcriptions
from Terry Branam.

Included are video and audio files that match
the transcriptions in the book. There is also a bonus transcription and video of Steve’s performance at
Zildjian Day 1984. The original Up Close and In Session
full videos are available separately from Hudson Music.

*HUDSON is offering a very limited supply
of signed books if you act now!
