Buddy Rich Memorial - 1989 10 14 (part II)

[@jamescarey]

Thank for posting this, I was the producer on this and it stands as one of the greatest projects ever for me. It was such an honor.

[@torch0784]

That's SO cool!!!

[@norskov]

james carey it still stands the test of time!! Very well done, and thank you for that!!!

[@michaelcaplin8969]

Wow, AWESOME!!! It is probaby the biggest Holy Grail for me as a drummer. Everything was just perfect! Thank you so much sir!

[@DaGretschguy]

james carey I WORE THIS VHS OUT!! Thank you James!!

[@farclebaba]

That is so amazing James. WOW. What an amazing production you guys put together. I can only imagine what an amazing, once in a lifetime experience that must have been for you. The only way to get that much drumming talent in a single production would be to get Gadd, Weckl, and Vinnie on the same stage again. I bought this on VHS back in the early 90s and literally wore out the tape. I'd rewind and rewind and rewind trying to figure out what all three of my drum idols were playing during this amazing performance. I think it's safe to say this tape influenced generation of aspiring drummers, which must be really gratifying. Thanks for sharing!

[@farclebaba]

I love this era of Dave Weckl! The mullet, the recording customs, the far back on the stick traditional grip (which he made work somehow - all sorts of speed and power), the Zildjians, and the fierceness in his playing at this age. Dave is STILL absolutely amazing, and I love this playing to this day, but this phase of Dave's career was really special.

[@petelane8662]

I still have my 9000RC from the same era.... Cherry red the same as Dave’s and the same drum sizes..... and i still have this on VHS... I watched this again and and again and again..... still up there with my favorite drummers..... loved this era ..... Dave was awesome, Steve i love when you can hear him on certain records..... especially Steeley Dan.... Michael McDonald , but that’s just one of my favorites.... then...... there is Vinney.... fark....

[@BourdeoixEterno]

Still has the mullet too! :)

[@mortenhansen3455]

Pavel Voroin. Thanks a MILLION for this!!! All the way my man! (caugh caugh... Vinnie.. caugh caugh caugh)!

[@lazyriver6168]

All the drummers who participated are all great with their own style. For a true big band drummer, Rich had all the bases covered - excellent time, a showman, and one- of -a-kind chops. He will always be in my mind the world's greatest.

[@pacmanlp8876]

Ive seen this always on crapy quality. Thanks for posting this, great quality. Amnazing

[@TheGenebeats]

Great drumming by some great drummers. Steve Gadd and his drumming gets to me emotionally, and that´s the way I like it!

[@tooter1able]

Great to see/hear the great Bobby Shew solo and lead!.

[@lucasotgiu7654]

Vinnie and Dave 🔝🙌🏻

[@RogerBiwandu]

Vinnie = GOAT !!!!!!

[@marcpost4034]

There is no GOAT.

[@RogerBiwandu]

@@marcpost4034 There is one, in MY book anyway, and he’s named Don Vincenzo. 🐐😉

[@dalezjc]

Thanks for posting this! I literally wore out my VHS tape of this (and the other tribute videos), so this is fantastic!

[@mityaypolov6118]

The greatest drummers of the world. Yeah!

[@bobgosselin4402]

We're so lucky to have this concert

[@forrestwright8845]

I was blessed to see Buddy in New York and Santa Monica. In Santa Monica at a small club my friend gave Mr. Rich a shoulder massage in order to get him to do West Side Story after the half time. Great guy for his fans, Mr. Rich.

[@tryharder249]

Esse tributo foi e sempre será um marco na história da bateria!

[@crtune]

John Leys (bass trombone) and I are good buddies. It's great to see him on this date and concert w bone section greats like Ric and Bruce and the band sounds great. I thought I saw Charlie Davis up there with Bobby Shew.

[@bertrigters3705]

Timeless great great great!!!!!

[@marleyandme447]

The way these men work around the kit!

[@MatChew75]

Yamaha drums were great then in their great now an they were on full display that night and pearl. Of course Louie had the Ludwig kit....colaiuta, Dave weckl, Steve gadd, all used yamaha that night. Dennis Chambers played Pearl( incredible sound, my favorite kits), Louie Belleson played Ludwig and Greg Bissonete played that beautiful signature Pearl kit which glowed in the dark( the hardware anyway). From his days w/ the David Lee roth band. From which his career took off .

[@thomaspetteruti617]

Louie Bellson played a Remo kit. He started his career on Gretsch and subsequently used Rogers, Slingerland, Pearl, and then Finally Remo if memory serves. : )

[@arjunapartha]

2021 and this is evening is still legendary.

[@styrosynth3917]

For just pure curiosity. Could the people that disliked the video, just explain why? Pure curiosity.

[@larrysmith6797]

Because these drummers are crap compared to Buddy Rich.

[@styrosynth3917]

@@larrysmith6797 could you explain why. With a facts please.

[@killboybands1]

@@larrysmith6797 Crap? Weckl and Colaiuta have a far more developed rhythmic and musical vocabulary than Buddy and they surpass him in every way except hand speed.

[@grantkoeller8911]

Mexicali Nose" was composed by Harry Betts,

[@MatChew75]

But the drum off between Dave Steve in Vinny was absolutely amazing the highlight of the show.

[@PLDrums1]

For me (as much as I'm obsessed with Vinnie), when Gadd gets up he swings harder than Vinnie AND Weckl combined.

[@482jpsquared]

@2:26 to 2:27 My favorite hit. Simple but passionate.

[@dieguitoargalpha]

EPIC

[@DrJ-hx7wv]

Does anyone have a recording of the first Buddy concert on Long Island? The one with Dom, Jim, and Joe? I was there and I can hardly find a reference to it, let alone a recording.

[@MS-gj7ni]

That was awesome the winner is Gadd more groove based best hair goes to Weckl they were all great

And Ronnie Minogue from California just dissappeared with the Buddy Rich Memorial Scholarship and we never heard about him anymore...

[@ciadella1971]

I just read that he passed away a few years ago.

[@UFO_computers]

Sadly, the winner of the scholarship award, Ronnie Manoag, passed away from cancer in summer of 2018.

[@clarkharrell158]

I worked with Ronnie several years ago on an Augusta Symphony pops concert with The Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. He was subbing for their regular drummer. Great player and really nice guy. Sorry to hear of his passing.
