Buddy

painting by Thomas Baier

Buddy Rich [1917-1987] was a famous jazz drummer. He seemed to be a pretty big asshole is his private life, but he could make some great sounds. A very nice guy [or woman] got me this amazing clip.

- the same clip on the tube is here
- official website is here
- Ed Shaughnessy vs. Buddy Rich Drum Battle from the tube
- Buddy Rich vs. Animal from the Muppet Show = great
- what about Gene Krupa in his Jungle Madness
- full album "Les Plus Grande Batteurs"

Enjoy
