John Mayer - Last Train Home (Drum Cover) by Kai Jokiaho

John Mayer released a great new single and I had to make my version of it. It's got some 80's vibes from Clapton's Journeyman (one of my favourites) and some Toto influences. I tried to play Aaron Sterling's original parts but added some hi-hat for the beginning of the song.
I also have an older John Mayer cover on my channel, check it out. • John Mayer - Waiting O...

    Thanks flodrums! I had a cheat sheet for the different kick variations :) I basically did the same thing when somebody sends me a song to play. 1: Make a quick chart with kick/snare/fills 2: Record a version with my own feeling but using most of the demo drums. It would be hard to memorize all the variations when listening to the song twice, so this helps speed up the learning curve.
