Rockin` Socks takes up an idea that was pretty rare in rock music that three drummers act together and complement each other at the same time.
Simple eighth notes are building up to a double time feel
which are being broken afterwards, followed up by other powerful grooves of quarter notes.
Standard fills à la John Bonham are just as present as simple rudiments, which are occasionally played in unison.
Many elements of Rock are entierly mixed up into one piece of music.
