Beginners Review of Water, Cleaner, Better

I enjoy the book and the various hints. I am currently working on the beginner's exercises, so I have not yet progressed to the Etudes. The beginner exercises are valuable, and I practice some of them daily until I hopefully feel comfortable enough to attempt the first Etude.

I wish there were a few MP3 files for beginner exercises so that I could hear the minimum desired speed before progressing to the next step.

Faster cleaner

This looks like a wonderful book, however it is way above my understanding. I am a new player. I guess I misunderstood the description.

Faster, Cleaner, Better by A O'Rourke

I'm slowly getting into this book. I know it's going to really help, but it's a tough one. It gives my little pinky finger a workout, but I'd recommend the book to anyone serious about improving their playing.
