The Iconic Drumming Behind “Here I Go Again“ | Whitesnake Song Breakdown

Ozzy Osbourne, Yngwie Malmsteen, Ted Nugent, Gary Moore, and Thin Lizzy could tell you what it was like working with larger-than-life drummer Tommy Aldridge. But David Coverdale – Whitesnake’s recently retired frontman – has spent the most time with Aldridge, who has drummed for Whitesnake since 2013 and was a band member from 2003-2007 and 1987-1990. “He’s a great and well-loved drummer,” Coverdale said in a 2013 interview when Aldridge rejoined Whitesnake. The wild-haired character is now 71 years old and playing better than ever. In this video, he breaks down Whitesnake’s banger “Here I Go Again”. ►FREE 7-DAY TRIAL _______________________________________________________ Chapters 00:00 - Welcome 00:03 - Lesson Overview 00:37 - Song Breakdown 00:47 - Exercise #1 - Verse 01:14 - Exercise #2 - Pre-Chorus & Chorus 01:57 - Exercise #3 - Bridge 02:55 - “Here I Go Again“ Performance 08:23 - The Pop
