I mentioned Joe Morello before. he had a number of neat effects as he played. One thing he did that produced a one handed roll was to place a drumstick butt end against a floor tom and hold it in a ring formed by his thumb and index finger and stroke steadily downward on the stick. The stick would develop a steady rhythym producing a very smooth drum roll. He could do this in the middle of doing a roll on his snare where could continue the roll on the snare with the other hand.
