Roy Castle [pt.2/2] and Buddy Rich on "Parkinson" '82 (pt.4/7) HQ

This is part four. You REALLY need to watch this COMPLETE SHOW from part one (for PART FIVE, hit • Roy Castle, Buddy Rich... ).

[@1976c-b1x]

roy castle fucking character and a wonderful musician

[@bennyjazzful]

WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! From a mad keen 76yo Aussie fan.

[@alanwitton5039]

Roy Castle was a great British entertainer! Very sadly missed

[@hafpipe]

There'll never be another Roy Castle. What a star. It's a crime that he never got the major stardom he deserved.

[@MrDavey2010]

I agree with you totally. He was so talented. I had the pleasure of seeing his amazing performance at the London Palladium in Singing in the Rain in 1980s.

[@elizabethpease947]

hafpipe : Love his shirt, jacket, tie and handkerchief color.

[@MyZxcvb12]

He was great and could play anything it didn't have to be an instrument. RIP.

[@RobertDore-x4x]

RIP 🙏 Steve Marcus

[@deemdoubleu]

Wow bloody hell

[@georgethehands]

Buddy rich's tune at the end sounded like a 70s cop show theme

[@markperryman1797]

Starsky and Kojak mix...

[@jamesjube90]

… and a touch of ‘Rocky’

[@georgethehands]

What a amazing talent Roy.

[@tunefultonyjohnson4100]

mrbuddyi: What is this piece called, anyways? -- I am not familiar with it, sorry. -- By the way, Buddy Rich's drums never sounded tired in his entire playing career.

[@nealbfinn]

"Time Will Tell" comp.arr. Joe Roccisano

[@mikejones-qk2ou]

Sounds like a "Chicago" song!

[@davidwrightatloppers]

@eocarcharia - True! Chat-show guests only get around $500 appearance money in the US and $120 in the UK (the HOST gets the BIG money). Thus they only normally turn up out of contractural obligation to promote a movie or some such. But appearing on Parky was FUN - so they'd come on for NOTHING!

[@suncity22001]

Was a cool bloke.

[@georgekilroy2670]

"Time Will Tell"

[@georgekilroy2670]

Horrible mix for the drums-and way slower than he usually played it

[@mrbuddyi]

I have never heard Buddy play this song so simple...Sounds like he was maybe tired....Ive seen him play this song many times before and this is sort of strange.

[@nealbfinn]

We didn't know about Roy Castle in the States. We missed out on a lot of great entertainers from the UK.

[@chrisnorton4382]

He appeared on the Garry Moore show in the US in the early 60s. Check out the paralleljulie KZbin site for him working with Carol Burnett and Julie Andrews.

[@markgc1316]

He guested on the Garry Moore Show 42 times. But (aside from Benny Hill & Monty Python maybe) British talent and humour didn't cross the pond well.

[@liammccarron8191]

Drums seem out of sorts/ key.

[@vova47]

Horrid music - it's nether good jazz nor good rock. Buddy wanted to "stay young" and "keep with the times" - a mistake! I am sure he would come back to swinging jazz now.

[@legrandmoutardier]

Nice to see Buddy playing a straight 4/4 groove...that's pretty rare

[@vova47]

That's 8/8 not 4/4. And it's not rare enough.
