You tube tutorial is better
forget about this one, find youtube tutorials. there is no reference audio. It helps to learn if you can hear what that transciption is teaching you.

Great source!
Clear and good references from great rock bands to be inspired. It will take a little to practice everything but as mentioned: “Drumming is not worrying about what you can’t do, it is about having fun with what you can do.” –Chris Adler.

Build Better Drum Programs
Whether you're an aspiring drummer or simply want to build better drum loops (e.g., with a drum machine or software), this book and its downloadable audio examples will help you build a strong foundation. For me, the ideas from this guide, the book "Drumset Fills," and the YouTube channel Daily Drum Lesson have helped me create much more realistic drum tracks.

So far so good
As a total drum novice without anybody to guide me I needed a book that starts at the beginning, and this fits the bill. It starts very gently with a simple 4 beat bar that uses both hands and the kick drum, to start getting used to your limbs all doing different things. It took a few days to get the hang of that (at all!) and to start playing to the metronome beat. Then exercise 1b gets you to play the same bar on a different ride cymbal, then 1c is to alternate between them - sounds easy, and it is - with practice. Very rewarding to spot this simple groove (?) being played as the basis of a Dave Clark Five number. Three weeks of effort is paying off!
