  • This cover has a “surprise” mini drum lesson on one of the fills that I played during the song. I hope you enjoy it!
    "A Little More Love" is a song recorded by British-Australian singer Olivia Newton-John for her tenth studio album, Totally Hot (1978). Written and produced by Newton-John's long-time record producer John Farrar, the song was released as the lead single from Totally Hot in October 1978 and became a worldwide hit single.
    In the United States, "A Little More Love" reached its peak position of number three on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 1979, and peaked at number four on the Adult Contemporary chart. In Canada, it spent three weeks at position number two on the RPM Top Singles chart during February and March 1979, and was the seventh biggest hit of that year. It also reached number five on the RPM Adult Contemporary chart. In the United Kingdom, the song reached number 4, and stayed on the charts for 12 weeks.
    Record World said the song is "more rock-oriented than [Newton-John's] past pop efforts, and with a song as good as this one, the transition should be a pleasing one."
    Billboard magazine ranked "A Little More Love" as the 17th most popular song of 1979,[4] and Cash Box magazine ranked it as 23rd for the year, where it had peaked at number four in March 1979.

    Man, ... she had a great voice, and that was a catchy tune, always loved that one! Great job, and great fills/lesson on that! Sometimes, simple fills that fit a song best come through more impressive than complicated ones. 🥁👍😎

      Thanks for watching Jeff! Yes she had a great voice! This one really rocked out! I was pleasantly surprised! Lots of fancy fills are overrated, it’s the simple easy to execute fills that can really stand out. I was just rocking out the end and realized how easy that fill came out … it’s very effective so I shared my thoughts on it! 🙏🏻😎🤘🏻👍🏻🥁

    Smooth Earl! My instructor was showing me last Friday that our beats and fills come from our Rudiments and Para diddles.
    Danny Saraphine was in town 2 weeks ago at the drum show. I did not know him until I researched who he was. I could have had him sign a shirt if I stood in line.
    God bless our seasoned musicians.
    Olivia is quite unique!

      Thanks for the feedback Toby! Sometimes my best ideas come out during the fade out! I do that when working songs for songwriters too! I play it really straight until the outro / fade that’s where it loosens up a bit! By the way, no click on that song … I played over the original drummer … so when the song ended that was me keeping the song in my head! Thanks for watching! 🙏🏻😎🤘🏻👍🏻🥁

      @@earldrum That's awesome man! On most of my covers I don't use a click because most of those bands are recording without a click - so the click doesn't fit on all of the songs. I just have the bass to keep on time because I'm playing to my created drumless tracks. Love watching your covers! 🤘🤘🤘
