[@umano24]

To be straight with you all, I wrote many charts for this entire hour long show called One Night Stand, but not this one. Gene played his own arrangement of Sing, Sing, Sing, which he had used since before the Carnegie Hall concert in the late '30s. I also was with Hamp when we played Krupa's leukemia benefit concert at Lincoln Center in 1972. I first met Gene in 1957, when he was playing the Steel Pier in Atlantic City--He in the ballroom, my brother (12) and I (15) in the kiddie show there called Tony Grant's Stars of Tomorrow. What a great, warm personable guy!

[@absoluteelectricandmainten7432]

YES!! Thank you so much for all the information that gives more of the background of such a great drummer!

My father took me to see him at the Bay Shore mall on Long Island in 1972,I think. Gene Krupa AllStars band, maybe. He played hard, I remember that.

[@engeljulius]

Thom, I can't even imagine your life. I worked with comedians behind the curtain in management. I know of what I speak. Being a Brooklyn Italian and a Gene Krupa fan I now have someone else's name to watch for. Thom Gambino. You were a youngster in this one.

[@reva1041]

Very cool! Of when you first met Gene Krupa :). I also find it cool to learn that Krupa performed in Atlantic City. When I was a kid, my parents would vacation there. I recall playing games on the Steel Pier, but my fav were the games at The Million Dollar Pier. And I loved Maisels for great breakfast and meals on the boardwalk …great chocolate cream pie and at breakfast, baskets of miniature danish!! Worth getting up early for! And of course also on the boardwalk was Planter’s Peanuts, freshly roasted, and tall Mr Peanut greeting folks out on the boardwalk …pigeons would land in your hand or arm if you offered peanuts in your very still hand. Great memories.

[@chrisjackson1023]

Just once in your life, you gotta stand in front of a swing jazz band and FEEL that power!! This is BIG music! It honestly dwarfs a rock band for sheer monstrous energy!

Gene Krupa and Lionel Hampton playing togther - that was a real treat.

[@dlagrua]

Gene was 62 and gave an exciting riveting performance when he performed this number with the great Lionel Hampton. Gene was great until he passed and that was in 1973 only two years later. He was the most rhythmic drummer of the 20th century.

[@maureentuohy8672]

Definition of a classic!!! No matter how old you are 80, 60, 40, or a teenager. This music reaches into your ears, to your brain makes you smile then reaches your muscles and next thing you know your dancing 🕺 💃 Brilliant.

The jazz drummers knew how to swing. To an extent, the 60's rock drummers like Ringo and Charlie Watts carried that swing feel to the rock music. Today's drummers are technical and good but they don't seem to swing like the old timers. Maybe it's the type of music they play now days, but I like the swing feel of the older songs.

Gene Krupa, uno de los mejores bateristas de la época de las grandes bandas, muestra en este video de 1971 toda su pericia en el manejo de los tambores y platillos. Era un verdadero espectáculo ver a este percusionista, que para la época de filmado este video seguro ya pasaba de los 60 años. Y este tema en particular, Sing Sing Sing, le dio cuerda para sacar de sí toda su vitalidad, porque la música fluía por sus venas como un volcán en erupción.

천용식 I ran a Guitar Center several years ago. We ran videos of many different artists, not just guitarists. The drum department was well known for overflow on Saturdays when we played DVDs of Gene, Buddy, Louis, Ed and Joe. We sold a ton of the DVDs to the aspiring drummers. You're right, some of today's drummers never will arrive at these giants level of play. But the dedicated ones that study so religiously will advance the art as time goes on. To criticize them as a group is pointless. There are the 10% at the top that move the whole thing forward. That will never change. Maybe you are listening to current music you don't like. I wouldn't blame the current musical tastes on the current drummers. If you're going to step out there with criticism, make sure it's valid.

....Gene was a family friend, a superstar who came to visit my grandmother's house every time he was in town to see our whole family, including an uncle of mine who was a drummer that periodically subbed for Gene and two other uncles who were famous acrobatic dancers. I treasure the sepia publicity photo he signed in silver ink and gave to my mother in person at her 16th birthday party ! Just before Gene's death, I went with my mom, aunt and uncle to see Gene play at a supperclub and was awed at how excited he was to see all of them. He sat with us all night on breaks and afterwords, advising me, ( a young drummer), to aim for playing in the Boston Symphony Orchestra, instead of in the " rock scene" !! He was so warm , humble and friendly......especially recalling so many memories from " the old days". As a youngster in elementary school, our stern bandleader had a tough time dealing with the long line of applicants to be drummers, right after the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan. He simply asked each boy, " ...who is your favorite drummer??"....and all who said : " Ringo Starr" were DISMISSED. I said : " Gene Krupa", and at 8 years old began my music career in that school band !! Gene Krupa made the drums the CENTERPIECE and driving force of the orchestras during the " Big Band Era" He made the drums the prominent SOLO instrument of that time with his unparalleled style and energy. He was as big of a star as you could be. You could see his influence on drummers even today like Max Weinberg of Bruce Springsteen's band. Gene was FIRST, and other drummers followed and built upon what he started. Ringo did the same in his era....playing a new and unconventional style, where others expanded it into a whole new genre of drumming. I will never forget meeting him and the inspiration he always provided me from when I was just a small boy......Gene Krupa should always be remembered!

Gene Krupa first devised the trap kit, making him able to do those unique solos and fills. When the popularity hit, Slingerland asked Gene to come in, and he helped them design and market the first trap kits available to the public. Like Les Paul to the electric guitar, or Leo Fender for the electric bass, Gene Krupa is the father of the trap kit. Slingerland and Gene Krupa basically made each other into something popular and in high demand.
