You know, people always seem to focus on Buddy Rich's soloing skill but they rarely ever comment on how his band complimented his drumming performances. As a unit, they played SO tight.... I feel its that "whole band tightness" that really raises Buddy's drumming from amazing to "deity" status. A finely oiled machine... that is really what is most amazing to me.

LanceCampeau We used to watch BR and his band at the “Carnation Theatre” all throughout the 70’s and early 80’s. He had a very long term contract with Disneyland in Anaheim. As you said, the band was “tight”! It was common knowledge that Buddy did not suffer fools lightly. If a band member was not up to his VERY demanding standards, they were out. Since annual passes were still relatively cheap back then, we would go over almost every night to watch him. I just wish we had been able to use video and/or audio recorders back then. So many amazing performances.

Buddy Rich was 62 years old when he performed at this Montreal Jazz Festival in 1982. Can you imagine anyone else playing at this level at 62? I think not. I can't even see any younger person playing at this level, on a standard jazz drum set. Buddy absolutely crushes it on both cymbals and drums, later on, in a song called "West Side Story Medley". He also nails it like no other on the brushes in "Brush Strokes" There will never be another like him. His improvisational skills were masterful. He set the bar on playing drums which is light years ahead of anyone else I've ever heard.

The better you get at drumming, the less physical it really is. The key is being proficient, meaning things are easier and require less effort to execute. Really nobody at a younger age can play like this because by this point he has been playing for 60 years. He has the technique to play faster with less effort.

Aran Rasekhi I've seen Peart many times. He is excellent for sure. One of my favourites and one of the best pure rock drummers ever but he lacks the musicality for other genres. For example, he is not a very good jazz drummer - he's just ok. On the other hand, Dave Weckl, Steve Smith and Vinnie Caliauta are fantastic rock drummers and phenmenal jazz drummers. I never saw Buddy Rich live but have seen at least 30 performances on KZbin and yes he is fast but has superb timing in any signature and has great musicality.

Thanks for going to the trouble of compiling this helpful list. But the title of the lovely song at 9:59 is "If You Could See Me Now" (the makers of this video got it wrong too, in the crawl at the end). Written in 1946 by Tadd Dameron for Sarah Vaughan, it was her first hit, and it was at times her signature song. She recorded it several times, as did Billy Eckstine and numerous jazz instrumentalists. Here's a fine version from later in her career. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnfSf5ihf9d1q8U

His stop time solo breaks with Buddy were mind boggling. He made it look so easy … and he seemed so relaxed. His solos were so well structured ..

On the first chart, Buddy's shuffle beat gets in the groove in about 2 seconds flat. Just not fair. Sets up the alto sax solo and bass solo perfectly. This piece is extremely clean, tight, with lots of open space for the soloists. Even Steve Marcus is into it, swaying back and forth. The chart has a whimsical mood, very happy. Second chart: Buddy's brush work could not be cleaner. He is the time master. This is very old school, and yet with the dissonant chords in the chart it is a totally modern sound. Lucky, lucky audience.

Neil asked Steve Smith when he came back for Burning For Buddy Volume II which Neil and Cathy Rich produced with her husband Steve Marcus, how he had gotten so good. Steve answered "Freddie" referring to Freddie Gruber who was Buddy's stand in on the road with the big band for years. Neil looked up Freddie who had been working with Steve Smith and he and Neil worked on Neil's capabilities and approach to the drums. Freddie passed away a while back. I have included an amazing Steve Smith video showing how his skill is so much like Buddy's. So efficient and so under control. A long ways from the long haired Rock Drummer in Journey, but Steve was primarily a Fusion and Jazz drummer when he graduated from Berklee. Check this out, and make sure to stay for the end. How Steve plays this chart with not one single piece of music or anything is beyond me. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHuoqaSpp7-tm6M

This should be mandatory viewing for any young drummer interested in jazz drumming. That's how you swing a big band. No one could drive a chart through the roof like Buddy. I feel very privileged to have seen him play many times back in the 70s & 80s. Hopefully a little of his playing rubbed off on my own approach to the instrument. I'm afraid too many young drummers have lost contact with the past.

He feels it, the crowd feels it, the band feels it, we feel it 50 years later! It was one moment among thousands Buddy created and we are all so lucky to have had them captured!

Every year, Buddy Rich gets a little more interesting to me. As the years pass, and YT is filled with more and more videos, and there's more and more to see and hear, I realize more and more that Buddy really is the standard. There are interesting drummers, many brilliant ones, and of course YT is chock-full of complete nonsense that is accepted by an entire generation as "great drumming". So, every year these differences become more stark. In this video, Buddy's playing music that I don't really even listen to as music itself, but his playing is inescapable. When a guy like Dave Weckl (who will probably become a standard in his own right in years to come) at this stage in his career still expresses wonder and amazement at Buddy's approach and technique, you have to try to absorb that something very special happened with Buddy Rich. Everything about his potential abilities became complete. Buddy really is the standard.

John Lennon once said that before Elvis,there was nothing.Before Buddy there was nothing.When Buddy was with us,there wasn't much else.After Buddy left us,there hasn't been anything since.

bizyz Seriously! Give Joe Morello a listen. Both of them use to jam together. Bonham idolized Morello and used him as a model for his style. Watch the take 5 solo with Dave Brubeck band late 50s or early 60s.

omg/lol... John Lennon meant Buddy Holly, not Buddy Rich...

Before Buddy, there was Gene Krupa..the King of drummers who started the recognition of them , as stars I’m their own right. Buddy became the new King, when he came along...and has never been dethroned since.

You won't hear a better mix of a big band ... Especially the saxes. Some of the bbc stuff on Parkers Place was recorded well but this is out of this world.

31:30 - good example of Buddy playing cymbals. No drummer that I know of has ever specialized in cymbals. First time I heard this was BR live in 1972, and the entire audience was transported. It looked like he was just waving his hands around and all these different shimmering sounds appeared like magic.

I've seen BR do this on a few occasions it's really hard to believe your eyes !

You should hear the all cymbal drum kit of Terry Bozzio. Not my type of drummer, but an interesting performance for sure
...Buddy's brush playing was just unforeseen in that second number. It may be my favorite brush solo ever.. (now, where did I put those dam brushes!?)
