The New Method for Afro-Cuban Drumming features Jimmy's unique approach to playing contemporary Latin rhythms on the drumset. The material represents a fusion of his experience growing up in Cuba and shows how he applied this knowledge when he got to the United States and began performing. Patterns include: clave, cascara, bombo, guaguanco, cha cha cha and Afro-Cuban 6/8. Jimmy also includes a section on soloing ideas.
