He was friends Iwith my teacher Al Miller, and we would go to see Buddy Rich perform backstage. Jim would tell me what Buddy was doing and an- alyze it to the slightest movement. My visit with the “Chapin Magic” started. Jim was always so sharing with his hard-earned knowledge. He simply taught the best drummers in the 20th century and was work- ing on the 21st century. His books, CDs and DVD is a university of information; owning them all is a must! I have learned from him, taught with him, performed with him and even played for him while he sang. He loved life and music equally. I am a better person for having experienced the “Chapin Mag- ic!” He was called the Father of Drumming Independence. How ironic of him to pass away on July 4th, America’s Independence. Jim will live long in his contributions ... I ask the future generations of drummers to continue in seeking out the wealth of sharing that Jim gave us. Now on the 4th of July, look up at the fireworks and cel- ebrate the magic of Jim Chapin!

For, like the fashion con- scious, a drummer must also adhere to style-- but of the drumming sort. Glendale, California’s own Alicia Warrington is proving that not only can she wear the hats, she can fit the shoes that go with, metaphorically speaking. The 28-year-old drummer has stayed busy with some of pop’s biggest names including Hannah Montana, Kelly Os- bourne and Lillix, but before we apply any more labels, let us not forget that the talented Ms. Warrington grew up listening to the likes of Dokken and Motley Crue and even fronted her own death metal band from behind the kit. Yet just when you might be tempted to brand the drum goddess a rocker, you would be wise to check out her lat- est effort with The All-Girl Boys Choir, as she struts her stuff on vocals, bass, guitar, production, engineering and co- writing on the duo’s country/blues in- fluenced EP entitled Walking Miracles. A sonic swagger down a catwalk of groove, Miracles shows she can be de- fined in just one word -- unforgettable.

How do you think a drummer is influenced in their choice of stick? And what do you feel comfortable with? I have tested many brands and started off using sticks from a company that would break all of the time. I wasn’t completely happy until I started using Vic Firth. I stopped searching after that. Choosing brands is completely personal preference. In choosing a stick, you want to get the best playing experience as pos- sible. You want something that will project the sound you want, in addition to feeling right in your hands (the right weight, length, tip, etc). I am most comfortable with the Vic Firth 3A wood tip - for faster/light rock and the American Classic Rocks for full/heavier sounds.

I taught myself drums (when I was around 11 years old) by watching and lis- tening to other drummers. My Uncle Kevin had a huge kit in his basement. It was set up on a platform with lights, fog machines, and huge speakers, and I would just put on a tape and play along to what I heard. I would play songs over and over again until I thought it sounded exactly like what I was hearing on the recording. I felt like a rockstar under the lights, with the music blast- ing. (laughs) I’ve been blessed with being able to play with artists of differ- ent genres and have had to learn their music in short periods of time. That way of practicing when I was younger has helped me be able to adapt to differ- ent styles quicker and to pick up drum parts easily on recordings. Today, I still implement that into my prac- ticing, but these days I mostly play along to a click track with the music in my head. I also work on different exercises, patterns and fills repeatedly.

  • 1 Back to Chicago
    1 Back to Chicago rom the time my parents brought me home from Oak Park F Hospital in the late summer of 1948, I was a wild child with a constant need for movement. I had a tendency to run toward the fl ame. The sound of a fi re engine siren was the fi rst thing to catch my ear. Whenever one of the trucks came screaming through our neighborhood of New Little Italy, I waddled out the front door after it as fast as my short legs would take me. My mother was usually able to catch me before I made it to the street, but occa- sionally I slipped out without her noticing. One time I was found by a ChicagoCOPYRIGHTED police offi cer almost a mileMATERIAL away from our house! Needless to say, my parents were horrifi ed. New Little Italy was an overfl ow of sorts for Chicago ’ s Little Italy, a twelve - block stretch around Taylor Street. It was a typi- cal Italian neighborhood: the houses were on the small side and packed close together. Families could smell what their neighbors were cooking in the kitchen and hear what they talked about at the dinner table. 5 CCH001.inddH001.indd 5 99/7/10/7/10 99:33:06:33:06 AAMM 6 danny seraphine My father, John Seraphine, met my mother, Mary, shortly after he returned home from a stint as an MP in the army during World War II.
