StarMountainKid Posted March 22, 2015 #3 Share Posted March 22, 2015 The best. I've watched all of Buddy Rich's drum solos on Youtube, I think this is the one where he suffered a heart attack in the middle of the solo. You can tell when he gets off his kit. Having a bad heart, his doctor told him if he kept performing he couldn't guarantee how long he'd live, but he kept performing anyway, though he died of after an operation to remove a brain tumor. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reefearly Posted March 22, 2015 #7 Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) have an aspiring drumming genius next door - helped him carry his kit from the car - being the neighborly type, I asked, "what do you play?", he said "I'm into R&R but other stuff too...", which told me, at the time, that he was conscious of the rapidity with which R&R can BORE the crap out of a drummer - not all drummers... drummers seething with energy can overcome that: John Bonham would be one who I doubt was bored with his craft - but then he pretty much owned the genre - still does, in many ways - much as Buddy Rich Gene Krupa and several others kinda "owned" jazz drumming. I'm more into the hand-drums, like Pancho Sanchez for instance - Mongo Santamaria is my personal lord and saviour.... so that's why this little Cuban group's drumming really moved me, in all kinds of ways, but I just really dig the rhythmic, as well as personal, chemistry: Edited March 22, 2015 by reefearly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roddy Posted March 22, 2015 #8 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Not nearly as famous as all the others listed here, but I've always liked the work of Eric Carr. (RIP). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
