DVD Reviews of Clayton Cameron: Brushworks - The DVD
DVD Review: Good but...
Summary: 3 Stars
So I just finished going through both DVDs. One is instructional, one is a trio performance. I would recommend this to anyone interested in brush playing because there are only a couple of dvds out there currently and this is still less expensive than a private lesson with a great player, so from that perspective it is a good value. On the instructional DVD Clayton shows a number of different (simple) patterns and ways of keeping time. It is is well paced for sitting there and playing along. There is then a section on "brush rudiments" but he goes through them at speed and doesn't break them down so you have to pay really close attention and figure out what he's doing and even then it is difficult. There is no booklet showing them either. The performance DVD is good, they don't always, but often show 2 views of Clayton so you can see his playing from behind, which is great. My biggest critique however, is that the distance between his examples with the band and the examples in the instructional section are light years apart. He doesn't cover how he moves between the patterns or fits in fills or anything very complicated. So even if you master all his techniques you might still watch him and wonder exactly how he is approaching things in a real musical context. For example the band plays both a waltz and a samba and he discusses neither. I don't know if this was deliberate or just lazy, but once you get up to speed on the basics, you want more. And he really is a phenomenal brush player so it's unfortunate he doesn't provide more insight. There are some real gems - the tap dance influence section is really cool and really shows the connection between tap dancing and jazz drumming. But overall it just seems a little half-assed. IMHO at least.
