Dave Tough's Paradiddles

Back in the 20s-40s, there was a wonderful jazz drummer, Dave Tough, who happened to co-author a fantastic book on paradiddles.

Unfortunately, the book is long out of print. To boot, only 3 copies exist in the world's libraries. Well, a very kind soul in Australia borrowed a copy from a library there, scanned it and made a PDF out of it.

He happened to be so nice to send me a copy. It's a wonderful book, and if you'd like a copy, please click here, where you can download a zipped archive of the PDF.

Enjoy!
Todd

    Todd,
    I thank you from the botton of my heart for the pdf of Dave Toughs book - I am in Cape Town South Africa and have been searching for about 11 years for a copy of this book. Please be so kind and forward my thanks to the fellow drummer in Australia for me if you can. Wow this really is unbelievable.
