Some say Buddy made a deal with The Devil...No one knows what Buddy got but The Devil got drum lessons.
Blackjáck Music .......and fiddle lessons from “Johnny” aka Charlie Daniels.
Lmao!!!!! Funny shit. 🤣🤣🤣
Nice one...I never comment but that shit was a good twist
😊😊😊😊😊😁
Sounds familiar.
God, I miss hearing this kind of music on television.
Touche`! The '60s was even better -- though the truly significant jazz artists of the day (Mingus, Trans, Miles) were ignored...their music was too esoteric and progressive for the times. Horace, Brubeck and Cannonball fared better.
Hey man we got Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber now! Rejoice! 😆
Gerry Thrash You and me both.
@Nickhead87 Or it is just that people who are not interested in pop music don't know who's relevant anymore
Stop watching tv , its out there!!
Buddy proves time and time again that you don't need a 100-piece drum kit to perform musical perfection.
Joe Morello did it with 4 drums (bass, snare and two toms) plus high hats and one or two cymbals for years.
Also Bernard “ Pretty “ Purdie !
@@elident7828 And let's not forget Gene Krupa! That said, I've seen Buddy Rich playing kits twice the size that he used in this show. He had no problem with playing big kits. However, it makes no difference if someone plays a solo like that on a 14-piece kit or a 5-piece kit.
The drummer uses what he needs at the time he's playing and disregards the drums he doesn't need. How many drums are in the set at the time doesn't make any difference and certainly doesn't imply how well the drummer plays, one way or the other. In other words, I fail to see the point behind the comment posted by LS-ki9ft.
I've had 10 to 15-piece kits most of my adult life and I personally like my drum set to cover those octave ranges. But I knew I didn't need them all and unless I had a specific solo or song in mind, I only actually used about half of them.
FWIW
amen. He is FUNNY on the mike douglas show talking about er I will say country music .. Look for it. And his impossible drum solo is crazy. Best drummer ever. I love Bonham for best rock drummer. Again no 100 piece drum set.
How about some love for Sammy Nestico, the guy who wrote this and so many other classic charts like this -- still alive and swingin' at 95!
brilliant comment !
Sammy, fantastic musician on every level!!!
Now he’s dead
@@jamesheath7601 Well shit!!
Great arranger huge talent mades stageband possible
Celebrities seemed so much cooler back in the 1970s.
Dale's Drum Channel Zero and had class, even...
Depression and WW2 Korean War Kids )) God bless them
That's because today they are a bunch of candy ass fools....
They had talent, too.
they had class
Buddy Rich's precision was amazing. No stroke compromised the next, everything arrived on time. What stands out for me in this performance is the phrasing. It's all fireworks and dazzle, but he didn't ignore dynamics. A master.
So much more swing than Neil Peart. There I said it.
So what's your point....Peart admired Rich
..
@@halseyknox That only proves that Peart was no fool.
"I got a watch that keeps better time than that."
I mean, In Johnny's defense, a watch is usually pretty good at keeping time...
Jesse Cole he should have said “a broken watch”
That joke killed me too.
You had to wind them up back then and they eventually slowed down.
YOUNG BUCK.
@@frankburdodrums8984 But if you kept them wound, they still kept better time than a human playing drums.
DUMB FUCK.
@purplinko Right. GOD This guy is why America is in the poor shape it's in. No education whatsoever.
Just arguments like a bitch.
Jesse Cole I know this is the internet, but you need to chill out. What is wrong with you??
As a drummer, I know there's so much more to this, but.....THAT LEFT HAND......
Imagine how fast it would have taken him to get off
I’m so sorry
And the nonchalant guitarist’s right hand.
You can talk about modern techniques... But I see him as the only one who has complete mastery of the instrument. Unique.
@@MM-lp5pp Oh, hello Mr. Troll! Busy today?
Anyone notice how kick-ass that sax solo was???
Ernie Watts who played in Buddy´s late 60s bands.
Buddy's expression at 1:50 says it all. Digging the sax playing, then using it to fuel his own creativity. As a kid I used to think BR was just a show-off; now I see what a pure musician he was.
Amazing player!
LeggoMyLamb that was Ernie Watts who was part of Buddy's band in '67
ERNIE WATTS WAS ON THE ROLLING STONES WAITING ON A FRIENDS ENDING SOLO ...
I love how Ed Shaughnessy(The band's drummer) is just sitting back watching the master work. And Ed was no slouch, either!
Better than Rich at that point.
@@justafanintexas7913
N pllllease
Ed and Buddy had huge admiration and friendship for each other. Check out this clip from a year earlier. ruclips.net/video/1QXdi25469U/видео.html
Applauding Rich ..... Love Ed to !!!! 💪💪
Shaughnessy was a drunkin bum.
If the younger guys only knew how incredible it is just to see Buddy and Ed Shaughnessy in the same frame...Legendary
Keith Showell Indeed!!
I remember seeing it "live" with my dad.... Incredible!!!!
Mark Paddy he was fast with his hands period. not particularly creative.
I agree. he was great. these new rock band drummers need to watch him
@@markpaddy3280 cant argue with that!!! 😀
The fact that Johnny Carson has a better rebound in his left hand with a PEN than most DRUMMERS is pretty crazy xD
exactly- ..Buddy joked about it- ..but you could tell he took notice of the tempo and roll precision of Johnny's pen- ...most likely Buddy gave Johnny a few free lessons at various Hollywood parties while they were ' shooting the breeze '
@@MysteryZenSide2 Yup xD
buddy was one of a kind. the world will never see the likes of this man ever again
32 years after his death, still unequaled.
No doubt in my opinion that irrespective of musical genre, Buddy was the greatest man ever to sit behind a kit. Sure, there are some top notch drummers out there but Buddy always played with his heart and soul.
A drummer myself, used to go see Buddy and his band a lot the last ten years of his life - at the Bottom Line in New York. I started noticing something at each show. Half the audience would nod their heads up and down to the music. Then there was a whole group that would just shake their heads, back and forth. Those were all the drummers.
Great Comment! 😊
Buddy was like a machine here. OK, so some people criticise him for being arrogant, but it isn't arrogance for arrogance sake. Buddy was a perfectionist, he always gave his all and he expected nothing less of the people he worked with. He didn't do what he did for the money, or the fame, he did it because he loved jazz music and wanted to share his passion and educate others. Buddy was a rare beast. Sadly missed, never forgotten, never bettered.
Back when these talk shows were done by sophisticated adults.
Porfle Popnecker yeah, now they play stupid fucking games all night like egg Russian roulette and box of lies for fucks sake. All Fallon does is play cute little games all night with his guests. What happened to grown adults having mature intelligent conversation?
Long gone in this day & age!!!
Porfle Popnecker So true
Dan Letts you know, every Samsung has a toggle on the back on.the right behind the screen as you come up, in the corner.
Push it. (Then it goes off :)
Nothing but political hacks now
I've watched him mesmerized ALL my life (68 yrs so far)..and till the day I day, I'll never be bored watching him drum."
The bands on the nightly shows like this were incredible. Carson and Letterman's bands were just some of the best around.
Comedian wants to play drums.
Drummer wants to tell jokes
Only one can do both.
The drummer.

RIP Ed Shaughnessy and B. Rich. Both incredible drummers - although, Ed sat this one out.
And he's applauding along with the rest of the band.
Eddie great as well though only one Buddy for us guys that remember that era
They were very respectful of one another. I remember watching one of these tonight shows when Johnny asked Buddy "Outside of yourself, who are the top 5 drummers?" Buddy's list included Ed Shaunessey, Louis Belson, Danny Serafin, Danny D'Imperio, and I forgot the last one. Maybe Max Roach I don't remember. Been trying to find that on YT.
@@figgybass I see Max Roach on Buddy's list when he would mention drummers. Also he mentioned Steve Gadd. But the drummer on two occasions Buddy said was the daddy of them all was Chick Webb. Chick Webb died way back. Maybe late 1930's so I'm not familiar with Webb.
@@boblackey1 Chick Webb., mentioned in the movie Taxi Driver👍
Actual musicians who could play actual instruments and make actual music.
The guys in that band were the best in LA. More often than not, they wouldn’t even have a rehearsal. They were site reading the chart on live television. Monsters.
It's so sad how dumbed down music has become today fuck me id rather kill myself than write a song on a computer, fantastic musicians here from an era LONG gone, you young 'musicians' ought to be ashamed of yourselves my God
@@garyunsworth726 settle down man. I'd love to see anyone in this video try to play Bleed by Meshuggah. Buddy was one of the best but he wouldn't get past the first bar I bet. Talent comes in many forms, not just the ones you like.
@Thomas Evans Hi Thomas, I thought anything added here as a link to somewhere else might have something to do with Either Big Band or Buddy or something even relatively close. So then it is ok to use the fame and visibility of someone with a lot of it, to leach onto it and promote easy listening music that is much different, or perhaps some brand of tooth paste or hairbrushes, or whatever. Ok, I think I understand.
Going flat out; on the high wire without a net every time he played. Fearless.
When I was around 13 years old my Dad took me to see Buddy. I could not believe what I witnessed Buddy do to a set of Drums. Most of the audience there were Drummers. Even at my young age I could tell nobody in the house even thought about touching the Drums in his presence. Buddy Rich did inspire all Drummers in the world. I saw him do some weird stuff during his live performances. One time I he actually "Flipped Off" his audience and told the crowd they were being too F'n Loud! "Shut up or I am packing up and leaving". I saw some very unusual behavior from such a unbelievably gifted artist. Great Drumming inspiration yes, totally unprofessional business/public/performance "Live" example for others. Like a Bipolar person on Steroids. Weird stuff for sure. I still will always be Thankful I got to see BR perform 3 times live as a kid.
What a beast. It amazes me the way he drove a song forward; it sounds like he’s single-handedly pushing the entire band up the hill, but never loses that relaxed back channel swing thing.
I left a slice of that son of a gun hairdryer for all of us to feel old ha
johnnyfoto that was pretty cool to see. Thank you for that!
Old? Why I still have sideburns.
Pre-asbestos scare?
I still have that hair dryer.
I had one of those dryers WAY back when.
It lasted for maybe 7-8 years, before the motor finally gave out.
Johhny Carson with Buddy Rich on. Aw man, life was good.
The greatest drummer. No tricks. Just Buddy playing ..
Buddy was simply incredible. Not only an amazing soloist, but he couldn't read music, yet cut every part of every arrangement perfectly. His memory and perfect sense of time were "perfect."
John Z Agreed. A masterclass. It wasn’t that he couldn’t read music, it was just that - when asked about this - he responded “Well, er, I never needed to”. I respect that. Great post👍🏻
he was a jerk
@@bryceanderson9267 Yes he was, but he finally mellowed out a few years before he passed.
He was stellar but technically he sped up in the first time through the B Section, just saying.
Beyond amazing! How I miss Johnny Carson and HIS Tonight Show!
Drummers like Buddy Rich come around every so...okay...like never. We'll never see another like this cat. RIP Buddy Rich. You still da man!
The Tonight Show band was so amazing!!! When you hear Buddy's band or anyone's band you hear guys that have rehearsed and performed those song endlessly. But when you hear The Tonight Show band you hear guys that have probably only run through the arrangements a handful of times, at best - and most likely only once or twice, and sometimes not at all, I assume. Some complex arrangements too! Loved it then, and it's even more impressive today!
The artistry of studio musicians. No one can do what they do off the cuff like that. All these guys are musicians musicians.
Buddy! My first Idol. I was so lucky to have had parents that treated me a dozen times to his Detroit area appearances. What joy and inspiration it continues to bring me today. He was a tough leader, but a gentle man when I met him at 16...
From a time when celebrities had talent and respected others.
I love how the band stops playing waits during the drum solo and kicks right back in at the exact time they got the count. Awesome.
There will never be another drummer like B.R.
Dang! I have never seen or heard any drummer who can work a snare with the blazing speed and the musical precision of Buddy. He was the tops!
Best drummer ever, simple as that!
Buddy gave Johnny one of his kits and Johnny can play and that little trick with the pen proves it .
Buddy was my idol in the 70's! The man just had that thing we all wish we had. Ya know!
Never have i seen more natural drummer, a gift to drums!... Even Angie Dickinson was impressed.
Wow, that bass line, the sax, the drum, everything was so good
And you have Ed S. in the background, one of the greatest ever himself, applauding.
Maybe he was under recognized, but, by no means was he underrated.
He was a master.
Ed’s kit is on display in the museum at the Drum Center of Portsmouth in North Hampton NH.
Brilliant!
Shaughnessy was amazing. He didn't keep that gig for 30 years because they liked his drum set. He could read and that made him valuable. When you think of 30 years drumming for that band that had a new chart thrown in front of them five days a week and Ed swinging, rocking and grooving to make so many of the appearing artists sound great...That's a Drummer!
Shaughnessy was actually faster than Rich and has the timing regs to support it.
Ernie Watts on sax. He was in one of Buddy's bands in addition to the Tonight Show Band. Great horn player.
I met Ernie waiting for a Amtrak train...in Grand Rapids,Mich...around 7 years ago..talked to him a few minutes..Said he was going to play at the Chicago Jazz Fest...
Ernie Watts has mad skills for sure
Ernie was playing for stones 81 tour saw him in Seattle show
The same Ernie Watts who was in Charlie Haden's Quartet West?! Rhetorical question but hmmm!
He played with Zappa too.
I saw Buddy Rich at the Russellville Ballroom in Michigan in the late 70's. I will never forget that night.
Saw him at Mr. Kelly's on Rush St. in Chicago, Feb. 1973. He seemed pissed and was very arrogant . No drum solo either.
Its not just about Buddy's awesome chops, but about everything going on around him. What an amazing composition for the entire band. WOW!!!!!!!!!!
What i wouldn't do for just 1 drum lesson from this man, gives me chills every time i listen just fantastic RIP Mr.Rich
No one will ever be better than Buddy Rich!
Buddy Rich poppin’ corn with his right hand like nobody’s business.
No one comped like him.
Buddy is the greatest drummer ever and here he shows us why
Next to John Bonham .
Dave Weckl is on another level not to mention young prodigies like Senri Kawaguchi. Buddy Rich is one of the top legendary drummers of all time, but there are others.
I met Doc back in the late 70s and I asked him which musical guest impressed him the most. He said Buddy Rich. That tells you something.
Yet, Doc is quoted as saying Shaughnessy was the better drummer.
Guy, I was a guest on the Tonight Show in October, 1979 and had ten minutes with David Letterman Guest Hosting for Johnny and with Doc as the Co-Host. Both David and Doc were so nice to me. Here is the Interview part of the Show..............I blow into Doc's hands and get a "toot"...............4:00 in on the video.............ruclips.net/video/ztT9owljuL4/видео.html Here I perform, "What kind of fool am I" ruclips.net/video/8j8vQ0r_joo/видео.html Wishing you all the best!
Imagine if he had a massive kit like neil peart did. Probably would have sounded like a genuine thunderstorm.
Nonsense! He sounding like thunder with a 4 piece.
If anything, Buddy powerfully demonstrated over decades that it is not how many drums you have, it is how well you play the ones you have that counts.
People debate that.
Like what if some of these guys from the 60's and 70's had double bass kits. It's certainly interesting to think about. My personal opinion though, Buddy played off the snare tons of rudiments and variations of them. I think he would of stuck to the traditional 4 piece like you see here. These days however I think most serious players have at least an 7 or 8 piece kit. Not all of them!!!!There's still alot of guys like Buddy out there. Very old school.
Great snare drummer..that's all folks
@Peter Miller Everybody knows Bohnam was influenced by Buddy.
He played off the snare drum and had the same 4 piece kit Buddy played. Ginger played a double bass kit but wasn't considered to be one of the greats mainly because he played a double bass kit at a time when that was considered cheating somehow. Carmine is definately up there and so is his brother Vinny.
Carmine played a double bass kit and Vinny didn't. Buddy and those old heads refused to play a double bass kit. I would love to see Buddy's reaction to a hi-hat with the extended pedal for double bass on one bass drum. DW 5520.
He would probably hate it.
Look how he keeps the hi hat going up and down, never changing the tempo, amazing, like a machine.
I grew up awe-inspired by Buddy Rich's genius. He's the reason I took up the piano.
To the day Buddy died, he was still getting better and better. Had he lived ten more years, he would have been abducted by space aliens for research.
Pils.... Buddy WAS a "space alien!"
Maybe he was.
He'd been playing pro at 18 months old...
10 more years because aliens didn’t start abducting people until X-Files came out.
He was a phenom. But when you think about Buddy as the task master over his band, which he had the right to be, college kids today would run home crying from his band stand. Today every young college grad is still in diapers and gets insulted when you give them an order at work as their boss. Buddy would not like this new 'I'm offended world' we live in.
Always a thrill seeing Buddy in NJ. Seaside,Nutley,Edison,North Brunswick. I've seen him in great moods,I've seen him fire a band member for being late.Never any drummer better than Buddy Rich.
Buddy killed it here..as he ALWAYS did... Johnny Carson was blown away as was the band, and even beautiful Angie Dickinson. Watch as he is walking back to the couch....Carson, as a hobbyist drummer knew and appreciated the skill the man had ..Buddy was simply in another universe of musicians and live in their own category such as Jaco Pastorius.
I saw Buddy in the 80's Live. I had front row and watched in amazement as this older gentlemen came out in green golf slacks and a white golf shirt, Immediately threw the sheet music and started to play. The band went into a frenzy, turning pages to get to the right song, and BAM everybody fell in right behind Buddy. WOW. I was in total amazement all night long. To see the master himself, I considered it an honor. Oh by the way his sticks were a blur from the beginning , I learned nothing but respect that night.
That was a good one. I used to stay up WAY late to watch Johnny Carson.
Custom tom mount that was never offered to the public. Ed had them too! Hercules tilter and bass drum mount on tom. Sure miss Johnny, Buddy and Ed.
THE BEST DRUMMER EVER! RIP BUDDY.........
Buddy Rich..."THE greatest drummer to have ever drawn breath."
~~~ Gene Krupa ~~~
"That's terrible. I gotta watch that keeps better time than that." Actually, Johnny's left hand wasn't bad at all, especially with a pen.
Agreed. Johnny is a very capable drummer.
Also, Buddy rich was a well paid man. I imagine his watches would be of good quality, Swiss movement, engraved bezel ect.
Now if he said he had a sundial...
I agree. Johnny was keeping perfect time, with a pen, playing traditional. Pretty impressive actually.
Guys...it was a joke.
Rene Dominguez Everything you said is true. But here, it was a joke. A clear joke.
Notice how the snare is tilted forward to accommodate traditional style drumming. Flawless
I miss the real tonight show band ...they were amazing
Sim One Right? We’ve gone from that to “Hey hey hey hey hey” Sad.
Insanity. Amazing. I remember seeing Buddy play as a kid. I was just spellbound.
The performances were amazing, but I especially love watching Ed Shaughnessy groove along in the back. He was a hell of a drummer in his own right, so it's cool watching him be such a great audience for his bandmates (and Buddy, of course!)
Buddy made music and drumming exciting! He inspired many drummers to play and all musicians 'to be better.' I have full respect for his chops and approach!
Excellent chart. Buddy and Johnny loved each other as friends. Johnny admired Buddy so much.
Buddy stands/sits alone at the top, but Ed Shaughnessy was right up there with the best of the rest.
No one played like Buddy Rich. My first drum book was,of course, Buddy Rich & a stinken drum pad,.a good memory, really...
Great memory. Thanks for sharing. I had to use two butter knives on an ottoman/hassock/whatever. It's fun to think of how many great stories like ours Buddy started writing.
man Buddy's snare tone is absolutely amazing... very tight and punchy like today's extreme metal snare tones..
THE BEST...NO ONE WILL EVER TOP HIM..PERIOD!!!👍
What a treat it was to hear that band five nights a week.
Johnny Carson, The Best, Hands Down.
Buddy Rich did with such a small kit what modern day drummers require every cymbal and every drum on the planet to do.
What he achieved will never be equalled!
The man was quite simply a legend, and will always be a legend.
If ppl don't like what they see in this video then quite simply they just don't really understand the true art of what Buddy Rich was all about.
Listen real close everyone... THIS is talented musicians ! No electronics, synthesizers, or Auto-tune. The men you see, are making the music you hear, when you hear it. Nice !
The ending was the best part too me.... to still have all that energy to finish with those rolls... real musicians
This was so good it made me cry. I wouldn't have cried in the 70's. I cried now because this level of entertainment is long gone.
It’s not gone. It’s still here. We just have access to so much more media that we have to search a little harder for it.
To be fair: Buddy’s style was always 1940s ‘big band jazz’, so this would have been considered antiquated at the time this show aired. The audience would have rather had KC & The Sunshine Band come out than Buddy Rich
@@RatKing59 The audience seemed extremely appreciative of Buddy Rich. Just listen to that applause. They all knew his musical genre. The 70's audiences appreciated ALL styles of music and had eclectic tastes. Your statements are misinformed to say the least. Ever Notice Carson's house orchestra and Doc Severinsen?
They played LOTS of 40's music. Get a clue. Carson retired at the TOP. The Tonight Show Orchestra with Doc Severinsen was a main part of the show.
I'm pretty sure that dude is a Machine. WOW. The Best.
For big band okay but not the most musical .
I see these videos of the worlds greatest drummers and, at times Buddy is not even mentioned… BLASPHEMY!!!!
In the 60’s and beyond I truly idolized this guys drumming ability. Never missed a beat. Flawless talent.
Does that not just floor you? I played for fifty years and still hold Buddy as the finest drummer in history. Keith Carlock is a close second.
greatest and best are not always the same. Buddy was amazing but not necessarily innovative.
When you watch this as a "Drummer" - there are No Words to say about this man, other than Just Incredible.
The good old days when the previous guest would stay and move to the couch for the rest of the night. Angie Dickinson on this night.
Right...but yes it was night
she was so fokable
Johnny jumped the shark when he went to hour program with prescripted talk.
And they actually entertained us ....
You haven't watched any TV since 2000?
Sounds like the makings of a great TV show you'll never see
Buddy Rich is the best Drummer that ever lived. I am 33.
Johnny always had an eye for THE REAL talent. truly amazing how he lasted 30 years on the Tonite Show, and 40 years on TV.
Buddy and Johnny were long time friends. they were both (of course) a little crazy, .. especially Buddy.
btw, for the record: to be THAT intense on the drums takes A LOT of interior aggression. ... aside from all the talent and hard work.
buudys the man, but that sax player ain't fooling around
Ernie was a longtime former BR member too.
Didn't he play alto with BR, not tenor?
Ernie Watts conducted a jazz workshop sponsored by Yamaha when my son was in junior high. Afterwards he spoke to the parents and kids about the dedication and hard work necessary to perform at the highest level.
He not only is a brilliant musician he is a genuinely good man.
He hung around for pictures with the kids too.
He didn't want to get thrown off the bus on the way to Nebraska...
Damn I was thinking the same thing! You can totally tell too because Buddy was getting' down to that Sax players groove.
Man that snare sounds heavenly
Not bad for a 63 year old! After all these years! Buddy's still the King
The saxophone players solo is on fire and buddy rich we’ll he might be an alien 👽 🥁 LOL … those were the days the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson
Buddy and Johnny seemed like good friends.
Oh yes, they absolutely were very good friends!!
Damn, how good was Johnny Carson? What a genius.
The faster the better? Musical perfection? Actual Music? All the comments are positive but there are people who hate 'showing off'. I do.
That's show business 👏
Johnny at his best !! He loved Buddy and admired his talent so much ! and I think Buddy admired Johnny's talent as well. Of course .
That was absolutely mind blowing & Doc's band was right there with him every step of the way... PRICELESS!!!!
Buddy was the best the sax player was also and Doc and the band was always great, as much as we ever saw of them. love that jazz
Buddy was the best the sax player?
Carson got personal drum lessons from Buddy at Carson's home. What a thrill that would be.
The Best of the very Best of the very best, right there..
Be humble and honoured to witness this Godly talent that you do not, nor will ever possess,nor will you possess in a 1000 life times for ever and ever Amen.
I saw him live!
