"This book can be used for beginners as well as advanced rudimental performers. It can also be used for individual and ensemble situations. Superior performance can be obtained if this book is used properly. I highly recommend it to any teacher and student at any level."

"John Wooton's book, The Drummer's Rudimental Reference Book, is an excellent collection of exercises to develop the author's five stroke method. The text contains detailed explanations for the production of each stroke and graduated exercises for their application. The exercises are medium to difficult and can be used with either individuals or a drumline. (My students particularly enjoy the flam rudiments.) This book is a necessity for every serious drummer"

"John Wooton's Rudimental Reference Book is packed with intuitive exercises that should assist drummers young and old in solving the problems of correct rudimental execution. If teachers and students will follow this method to the letter, it could become the definitive rudimental technique book of our time."

"Finally someone has written the quintessential rudiment/snare drum manual! This book is so good and so thorough it should be a manditory item in every drummer's library."

"This long needed reference guide truly fills a void for today's rudimental drummers."

"...an excellent supplement for someone looking to develop his or her technique. The exercises presented are quite challenging, and are geared more for intermediate to advanced players. The material here would be especially appealing to drum corps aficionados, college-level students, or anyone desiring to build up his or her chops."

"This is it! This text is the best ever written for teaching the rudiments and will soon be on every serious drummer's shelf. I commend John Wooton for putting together a text that we have needed for a long time... Bravo!"
