The greatest drummers were born, not made. We'll never see the like of Buddy again. RIP

[@benjygreenberg1512]

Keep posting more buddy rich!

[@marcg7329]

Two legends. RIP.

[@bigd-1-channel514]

Excellent, Buddy was the Master of Drumming, and Carson the Master of Late Nite TV

[@henrrycapiro2045]

He’s my hero and my inspiration

[@pagecampbelljr4562]

Love buddy on the drums like always

[@rick3747]

The greatest drummer to ever walk this planet. Joe Morello is in 2nd place. RIP Buddy and Joe.

Ther 3 rd is Smashing Pumpkins's Jimmy Chamberlin, or maybe finally the first and best in the world !!

[@Claymor621]

I don't play drums but I could watch this guy for hours.

[@juan-carlosmereles3505]

"Why the sweater? Says Johnny and even a better response from Buddy " why the suit?" Great video he was amazing.... never heard anything at that speed.

[@sunking2001]

There he is...the Master...just like Andre Segovia...the Master.

[@MELONenSURPRISE]

what a wonderful amiable guy , great sweater even better playing , wish you a great time in heaven

[@tessagus2]

@@mikecaldwell8417 He could be an ass when his band wasn't performing as he expected. But for you to say what you did, you are an ignorant fool.

[@HadEnough745]

​@@tessagus2 He's ignorant because he saw Buddy as being amiable? Buddy & Johnny were great friends. I've heard Carson wasn't the greatest guy to his staff & wives either. So if I say Johnny was great guy, I'm ignorant too? Who cares? Some celebrities are ass-holes at certain times. If you played your part correctly in Buddy's band, no problem. If play like shit, Buddy wants to kick your ass. He did go overboard back then. He'd never be able to get away with threats today.

[@birchply023]

I like it when he gets that left hand going

[@rayszymarek2920]

Buddy could war a Sweater a Suit or even a Bath Robe. Buddy could and would play the most devastating wonderful sensational drumming that ever happened. You most certainly have to consider that the man Buddy Rich was most certainly One of a Kind.

They always mess with each other . Love it

The end is where they took the Caravan drum solo from in Whiplash

Buddy was funny to, lol, what a great vid, thanks op!

I hope Buddy found Nemo.

[@brianchisnell1548]

Darn rental kits. Is that one of those no return jobs? Classic

[@edellis515]

MY GOD

[@dylangatenby9928]

How many solos do we have to see to realize that he was the best drummer around?

[@vgr112261]

He never practiced because he was always on the road.

[@jamesheath7601]

🐐 🥁

[@roybeckerman9253]

For someone with a so called bad temper, he never complained about the wrongly configured kits they kept serving up to him on tonight shows.

[@sticktrik]

That’s because a true musician who can play their instrument has the confidence to play on any instrument as bad as they are presented!!!

[@roybeckerman9253]

truthbtold You’d think after all his performances on the show, they would try to get the drums right for Buddy. It must be a non Buddy fan that kept organising it for him....or a total dim wit.

[@roybeckerman9253]

truthbtold COB , I would say. It doesn’t look Bronze ..

[@unitedivide2789]

Damn.....That's all

[@chrisljung5137]

Post more please! I’ve never seen these before! Oh, and I just did a tutorial on the lick he did at 2:02 if anyone wants to learn that...

[@user-os4fl4zj7d]

When better than that comes along how will I know?

[@petercleary1000]

Nice jumper 👌

[@bluemoth5990]

He certanly wasn't in his best physical shape. Nevertheless, to me he is the only musician that I know of that never stopped improving and bettered with age. He never disappoints.

[@jonathangroove]

O melhor

[@Number4lead]

The best drummers are jazz drummers. The best guitarists are the older country guitarists.

[@zivkovicable]

Ever heard of Django Reinhardt?

[@TPT6148]

Or Andres Segovia, Wes Montgomery?

[@jasonyoung9226]

Pretty sure that's the edited West Side Story solo.. 🤔

[@TorySlusher]

That first high hat bit... Seriously, wtf?

[@HadEnough745]

4:15 Johnny is right on the money. Why the heavy sweater?

[@thecrippledrummer]

Buddy loved sweaters

[@DeanMk1]

Was this his last one on The Tonight Show?

8 months after his near fatal heart attack

[@roybeckerman9253]

I can’t tell....Supra or Supersentitive..? After all these years, why wouldn’t they know he doesn’t require a second rack tom.. Did Gene Krupa ever appear on this show.

[@thecrippledrummer]

I wasn’t able to see the strainer clear enough at any point to tell but his personal snares during his last Ludwig endorsement were Super-Sensitives (bronze or COB).

[@thecrippledrummer]

Roy Beckerman the only available video of Gene appearing on the Tonight Show was in 1962. Donald O’Connor was the guest host. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIHUqHiZmKaBrpY

Pretty good for being way past his prime.

[@thecrippledrummer]

Way past his prime?! Not hardly.

[@BullToTheShit]

@@thecrippledrummer He died just four years later. So yes, WAY past his prime.

[@thecrippledrummer]

BullToTheShit when he died had nothing to do with his ability.
