Back in Black - AC/DC - drum cover by Kevin S Reardon.

Published 2024-07-04
Hello everyone, and Happy Fourth of July weekend- let's get it started right!
This is a new drum cover of the Immortal drum/guitar anthem song from 1980, AC/DC's amazing album, Back In Black. My first cover video of this song was three years ago (I know, it's already been done extremely well a thousand times, but I couldn't help myself, we play it all the time in my lessons so now It's actually sort of an instructional video). It is often best to learn a song in sections and put them all together when they have been memorized- this cover was done from memory, although the sheet music is readily available and is used in my class. Such a fun song to do- I hope you all jam along! Luv, Kev.
Equipment: A very nice Stock Roland TD-27 kit, TAMA Iron Cobra double bass pedals, and a dw9000 hi-hat. I also use a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB interface with both line enhancements on. Drum sounds are all Roland patches with any needed EQ, compression, set configuration, and reverb effects added by me before recording. Recordings are done by my iPhone or iMac. Studio Headphones are Sony MDR 7506, but I sometimes use JBLs as well. Sticks are usually either PROMARK Rebound 5A (.565) Select Balance, Sound Percussion 5A's, On-Stage Maple 2B wood tips and Maple 5B nylon tips, and of course, my beautiful custom 2B sticks made by my very creative and talented wife. Thanks so much for watching!
