When Kenny was in the US Navy as Head of the Percussion Dept, he wrote a manual with technical information relating to STAGE BAND DRUMMING and rhythm-making in general. This is immensely valuable information for those wishing "formal" education, and a great example of the foundation Kenny was building on before embarked on his forty year
career of professional studio recording and stage appearances. View the PDF file HERE.
