"Spring Fling" by Robbie Ameen

Robbie Ameen's drum solo from the track Spring Fling.

This is from his band Seis Del Solar from the album Alternate Roots.

I submitted this transcription to Modern Drummer back in 2000 but they weren't interested. You'll get to see my fancy copy work though :)

Finished this one on my birthday.

  • Robbie Ameen on Drums
  • John Benitez on Electric Bass
  • Oscar Hernandez on Keyboards
  • Bobby Franceschini on Saxophone
  • Ralph Irizarry on Timbales
  • Paoli Mejías on Congas

This was a tough one to transcribe. I remember playing it back on a cassette player with used batteries so I could get it slowed down enough to figure it out.

Hit the blue Download button below to get the music and recording, print it out, and work it up.

Solo starts around 04:36.

"Thursday, February 16th, 2017 was a special day. I was both excited and nervous as I stepped into SIR Studios in Manhattan to start the first orchestra rehearsal for the Broadway production of Miss Saigon."

"When preparing a percussion book for a new Broadway show, we occasionally get the music in advance. That allows us to start our “treasure hunt” early, to have the right sounds ready, and to get a jump on the setup. But often, Broadway is the first appearance of the fully orchestrated show, and we have seen very little before the first rehearsal."

"The musical experience of recording a Broadway cast album ranges from easy to difficult depending on the circumstances. I find that the two factors that contribute most to the quality of the experience are: 1) how good the band is; and 2) how soon after you started the show you record the album"
