Rhythm of the Head
“I really enjoyed your book, the importance of one’s attitude is so important and often so overlooked. For me it’s much easier to practice hard, than to work at maintaining a positive attitude in all situations (especially in our strange music industry!)” – Bruce Baker Head of Drums at the University of Kwazulu Natal. South Africa
“the only book I ever read in high school was Rhythm of the Head. It was my first feature for every book review throughout high school, it was just so amazing”– Matthew Marinus Drummer with Fevertree. South Africa
“your book is not only for drummers, it applies to all musicians, the philosophy is universal” – Rob Davies Keyboard player and composer. UK
“wow, I changed my whole practice routine after reading your book. I get so much more done now. Thanks” – Mark Clifford drummer and multi-instrumentalist Drummer UK
“Rhythm of the Head is the most inspiring book I have read in decades. Thank you so much” – Gavin Toti Drummer South Africa
“I REALLY love what I’ve read… You don’t have to be a drummer to make use of the beautiful logic and philosophies in this book; everyone can benefit immensely from this! Thank you for this!!!” – Rob Gainey Los Angeles USA
“I just wanted to say thank you for your book, Rhythm of the Head. I started playing two and a half years ago, when I was 58 and have lessons with Mike Dolbear ( whom I believe you know ). Your book was recommended to me by a Drummer friend of mine, when I started at that time and I find it truly inspirational. I go to Blues and Rock Jams at least twice a week, with my sticks. Just such invaluable experience. I also put myself forward for auditions, to test myself out. (..and also to get into bands !.. ) I’ve got in a few and moved on of my own volition ! If I’ m having a block in my playing, I can usually open your book anywhere, read a paragraph and move on. Thank you so much.” Rosemary ‘Blues’ UK
“Amazing book! not just for drummers…every muso should read this book-bible-gem. Well done!”
– Colin Heaney Drummer/Choreographer/Composer (Founder of Drumtalkers stage show) South Africa

“I have indulged into your RHYTHYM OF THE HEAD and thus so far found the read to be really thought provoking in terms of where I am in life as just a person and filtering some of the pointers in your book into my lifestyle , I definitely will promote your book on to my fellow drum friends and stay blessed , I still find it amazing the process you went through changes bad habits finding the right technique to get to a performance level required , that is where I am at the moment.” Raul Diaz – Durban South Africa
“I’ve just finished reading your book “rhythm of the head” great book… I will definitely recommend it to my drumming friends! it really got me thinking about a lot of stuff especially chapter 5 about setting up goals, you use the example “in five years time I will play as well as xxx (your favorite drummer)…………...” Ryan Eberhardt – Klerksdorp South Africa
