"Here's the drum solo from one of my heroes - Tom Brechtlein - that he played on the Brandon Fields song, ""You Got It"" (1989). Tom has been a major influence on me since I first saw him with Wayne Shorter in 1986 at the Montreaux Jazz Festival. He blew me away!
I've never taken the time to figure this solo/song out but I did recently. Here's how I figured out his solo and how I went about learning it. And Tom even sent me a clip of a part of the solo that I included in here!
Check it out and apply this same technique to anything that you're trying to learn."

The kit is basically in Pearl Reference Specs except all have at least 2 plies of mahogany on the inside (which is stained red) and adding 4 plies w/ the floor and even more mahogany with the Gong & kicks. The rest of the plies in each are maple except for the snare.
We named the finish Red Bubinga Burst. I had them darken 25% of each drum to the edge. The gong is 40% fade only on the head side b/c its single headed. The only regret is that on the smaller drums you really can’t tell b/c I didn’t think about the rims covering the edges. Oh well, still looks amazing in person.
Snare (Mic’d with Audix i5)
14x5.75". 10 ply, 12.5mm "Regular" - 2 inner Birch, 7 ply Maple in the middle, 1 ply outer Bubinga. It also has the triple snare throw off. This thing looks amazing and lets you choose 3 different 6 strand snares allowing you to mix and match all of them. However, I've been using a 24 strand one from another Pearl snare for years.
