Having a heart attack during a performance, Rich was rushed to the hospital. In the emergency room, they asked if he was allergic to anything. He said "Yes, country music."
Gee, I thought I was the only person who had that allergy!! Hahaha. The great Mr. Rich!
Country Music is not just an allergy , it’s the f**king plaque😅
And he got a Hernia performing a solo as well ... There is only one Buddy Rich
You should watch the drum battle between Buddy Rich and Ed Shaughnessy (who was the drummer on the Tonight Show)
I saw Buddy play live at least 3 times, and I can honestly say as a former drummer that he was the greatest drummer who ever lived. While there have been drummers who came after him who have pretty much met his level of skill, he did so at a time when no one else was doing what he did - he invented the style of drumming he used. Sure, he had his influences, but he took those influences and turned them into something far more than those drummers had played. The fact that he could play this amazingly well in his mid 60's, with all the health problems he had, while wearing a freaking tux - UNREAL! His band (the one from 1966 to 1986) was unbelievably tight and powerful. He was a taskmaster (often an angry one), but he also had a great sense of humor. The Roar Of '74 remains my favorite Jazz album. Powerful, grooving, swinging Jazz, with some hints of Progressive Rock and Funk in there - just a phenomenal album.
The greatest of all time. I knew a Saxophone player who played with him back in the 70s. He had the best stories. Thanks for sharing
Just amazing
Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa influenced a legion of Rock drummers.
I bet they were both sorry too, lol
Buddy was a child prodigy. There has never been anyone before or since that could touch Buddy Rich the GOAT.
Buddy was 64 when he played this. Think about that. He's pretty much the gold standard of all time for drummers, and you can clearly see why. I always hesitate to say that anyone was ever 'The Best' at anything, but with Buddy it's hard to argue against it. As a lifelong drummer, I know of what I speak 🙂
60 year old Danny Carry still touring hard.
Danny is 63. can't believe it.@Wilem35
@@Wilem35 Buddy Rich had his first heart attack in 1959. Lots of people are now aware. With the types of physical challenges he had, not too many have the perfect techique to relax like he did when he played.... He was the single greatest drumming talent of any era. That isn't saying "his is the best" or "greatest" just that his raw talent which really was not honed or practiced, was built via playing with bands and sharing pointers with musicians. He had a photographic memory when it came to music, knowing a piece after 1 listen. You could say, his greatest assets made for some weaknesses, in that it came so easy for him, he didn't really push himself like other drummers do.
My cousin is 78 and still plays professionally for theatrical productions whenever he has the chance and still keeps the sticks going at home.
John Bonham, Neal Peart
I"M A DRUMMER AND BUDDY RICH IS AWESOME. ANOTHER GREAT DRUMMER IS GENE KRUPA. THESE TWO DRUMMERS WERE THE BEST.{M.G}orig TORONTO, CANADA.
I'd like them to react to Billy Cobham & Tommy Bolin doing Taurian Matado from Billy's 1st solo album.
Krupa was great. He came off as a gentleman on stage, too.
He and Gene Kruppa were THE great drummers back then. And all great drummers since know these guys and have learned from them.
The song is from "West Side Story" the Jets song. When I was a kid, it was argued who was better Buddy Rich or Gene Krupa and Carson used to have them on the Tonight Show doing solos frequently because he himself was a drummer and loved it. Ultimately, I came to the conclusion it was Buddy but many great drummers mention Krupa as well.
I've always felt that Buddy was better technically but Gene was a more musical player, if that makes sense. Louie Bellson was sort of a combination of the two, and comes in third in my view.
I don't see it mentioned yet but Buddy was actually having a heart attack while playing. He was rushed off stage as soon as the song finished and taken to a hospital. Even more impressive.
You could say it was literally a heart stopping performance.
Never knew that! That was the first song he performed. He later performed another tune.
Pretty much a myth. If anything he had some discomfort. He didn't have a heart attack until Jan 1983, he had one before in 1959.
He started with Artie Shaw's band in the late 30's. He disliked band leaders and considered himself as the star and the true quarterback of a band. Shaw finally asked him, "Just who exactly are you playing for? Me, yourself or the audience?" Buddy admitted he played for himself. Shaw told him, "then you would be better off with Tommy Dorsey's band", So Buddy left and joined Tommy Dorsey. Buddy was the top notch drummer but he was also the ultimate perfectionist. He had a _very_ bad temper and was not a pleasant person to be around at all according to stories by band members. He once berated all his fellow band members on a bus one night after a show hurling insults and profanities at them because he didn't like the way they performed.
Greatest drummer that ever lived. The hand speed is phenomenal
Yeah, you just watched the drummer's drummer. The late great Buddy Rich. You'll notice when he's just playing on the high hit cymbals, he's still doing a beat from under the cymbals with that same hand that he's holding the cymbals with. One of the things about Buddy that a lot of people don't really know is that he was that good but hardly ever practiced. I always remembered hearing that for years, but I didn't think it was possible to be that good without hours of practice. Then I watched an interview with his daughter, and she was asked that same question and she said: "Yes, that's right. Dad hardly ever practiced. As a matter of fact, I never even seen a drum set at the house". How crazy is that! The great Neal Peart even played a session with Buddy's old band. Then he also did a live drum solo tribute to Buddy as well. Buddy even once played at a benefit and there were several other well-known famous rock drummers there and after he did his solo, they didn't even want to go on a play after him. lol but some of his drum offs with other great jazz drummers was unreal, like Gene Krupa, Ed Shaughnessy, Louis Bellson. Those are some awesome drum battles. Louis Bellson was the first jazz drummer I ever saw that used double bass drums. Both Louis Bellson and Ed Shaughnessy played at different times as the house drummer for Johnny Carson's " The Tonight Show".
Ed Shaughnessy also played for several years as the house drummer for "The David Letterman Show". Everybody has the person they looked up to, even Buddy Rich and one of his favorite drummers was the late great Chick Webb. Chick Webb's band had a battle with Gene Krupa's band and they both did drum solos and Gene openly admitted that Chick won. He said in a newspaper article; "Chick ripped me to shreds that night". I remember when I was a kid taking lessons from my Jazz drum teacher, he had mentioned that he had seen Buddy Rich play live and I asked him what it was like, and he said: "After watching Buddy, no matter how long you've been playing, he makes you feel like only been playing for a few weeks. He makes you want to take your drums and put them in the paper for sale the next day". lol
This is the "West Side Story Medley," adapted from the Broadway musical West Side Story. The tune was a Buddy Rich staple for years. I saw him live in the 1970's--in that concert he played a 20 minute solo. Best drummer ever--no one else will ever come close. When this was recorded, he had been playing professionally for about a half-century.
Another famous drummer that many of the younger generation doesn't know about is Gene Krupa. You'll see some of his wild drumming
on the song "Sing Sing Sing". There was also a movie made about him starring Sal Mineo. You'll find a good segment of this movie if you
check out: Sal Mineo As Gene Krupa - Best Drum Solo in Film.
Can't forget Gene Krupa. He did one of the most practiced and classic drum solos ever.
Unbelievable hand speed. For a long time he was absolutely the best on the planet, and to a lot of drummers he's still the best ever and a huge inspiration.
Buddy Rich is to drumming....what muhammad Ali was to boxing, what arnold Schwarzenegger was to bodybuilding, what Wayne Gretzky was to hockey.....He was just on another level and in a category on his own. No one comes close.
What Page is to guitar ! !
My friend was trained by Max Roach, another drummer along the same vein as Buddy Rich.
If you think this drum solo is "impossible," you'll be even MORE impressed by Buddy Rich's performance in 1970 at The Hague, Netherlands.
Saved me time typing this!
And even more impressed with the ultimate drumming showdown, Buddy Rich vs Animal from the Muppets!
There have been many great drummers but for sheer hand speed Buddy is the GOAT and for musicality Gene Krupa is the GOAT.
To some extent the music was from West Side Story by Leonard Bernstein (rearranged).
Every time I see a drum solo in Rock N Roll You Tubes. And everyone says how great they are. All I can think about is. Ya but you haven't seen Buddy Rich.
Great choice. He could be a taskmaster with his musicians, but he pushed them to greater heights. Started at the age of 4.
The Greatest and King of Drummers of all time.
The announcer, for Mr. Rich, is none other than Frank Sinatra (Old Blue Eyes) himself.
I was in grade school in the 70s; my dad took me to see Buddy Rich in concert. I loved drums. Blew my mind.
Use to watch Buddy Rich on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson all the time. Because of him ,I learned how to play the drums. One of the greatest ever! Enjoy.
I'm surprised that reading through the comments no one mentioned buddy Rich's personality! He was a well-known jerk who at times showed up for shows in a brand new sports car while no one in the band had been paid in a several weeks.
My favorite Buddy Rich story came from a friend of mine whose dad was a professional sax player and had played, not only with Buddy Rich but also Stan Kenton and others. Because Dad was a professional musician, he slept during the day and the house rule was to never wake Dad unless the house was on fire. My friend was just a kid and learning to play drums when the phone rang one day and caller asked "If John was home" and "tell him Buddy Rich was on the phone"; my friend, who was about 10 at the time, freaked out & ran to his dad, woke him up (which obviously infuriated him) leaving him asking why was he being awakened and was told, "DAD, DAD, DAD, BUDDY RICH IS ON THE PHONE!!" to which he replied "tell that *sshole I'm not home" and rolled over to go back to sleep.
It was said that he hated everyone, LOL.
That's a brilliant story
Rich was the best and he knew it. Part of his abrasive personality was that he demanded perfection from his musicians--many of which in his later years were young musicians not used to being pushed to produce at top notch level all the time. I met him before one of his live concerts--he was not abrasive toward me at all--in fact, he was very gracious. At the time, I was just a young college student.
@@rockymountainjazzfan1822 I find that very easy to believe as I've known numerous young musicians who had the opportunity to meet him and he always seemed to be gracious to each one.
And yes, he did demand perfection from those in his band, but that doesn't excuse not paying them, not putting them up in nicer hotels, etc etc...
He came to my home City here in England and he was fantastic, he was the man who got me interested in drumming. Here I am at 70 yrs old still loving Buddy, oh yea and I shook the great mans hand. Legend.
Most drummers looked up to Buddy Rich. He was fast/strong/stamina for days on the drums. His left hand independence is insane
Buddy Rich was an old school drummer thoughout that whole big band jazz type era, basically a contemporary of Louis Armstrong, Count Basie, and all those guys. As you could see in the video, he's introduced by the Chairman, Frank Sinatra.
Can you believe people just use drum machines now, like ... "what's the difference?" 🤷♂ And I guess I have to mention pitch correction and timing correction software ...
I fell in love with Buddy Rich and his drumming as a young girl seeing him on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson! So glad you got to "meet" the great Mr. Rich! And what an introduction...
Buddy Rich once told Karen Carpenter he was his favorite drummer. Now that's a HUGE compliment coming from this man. You need to watch her kickass drumming skills as well.
He said he was his favorite drummer. lol
The dreaded typo (she, of course, not he).
Karen Carpenter wasn't as good a drummer as Buddy but she could sing, as well, at the same.time she's playing some really tough rudiments.
Skilled lady but not my kind of music.
One of the greatest, if not the greatest drummer to ever live.
As someone who played drums for 20-years I can tell you that if you're not a drummer, then you have no idea just how incredible Buddy really was. That's saying a lot since even non-drummers marvel at the man. Also, keep in mind that jazz is much harder to play than rock. Rock drummers, while great, can't come close to jazz players for the most part. That's why they say rock drummers make easy stuff look hard while jazz players make hard stuff look easy. 😉😉😊😊
Rich was notoriously short-tempered. He would often get in fights, even brawling with Frank Sinatra in their early days. He was also a black belt in karate.
He was a bad boy for sure.
he was my dad's favorite drummer. he was on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson often.
Yes, very much aware of the great Buddy Rich. Thanks to my Dad. He is who raised me on great music. That was the great Frank Sinatra who introduced Buddy.❤
Buddy’s homage to West Side Story, awesome
He was famous long before your time and was the greatest jazz drummer ever.
Most jazz drummers use traditional grip, as in the case of Buddy Rich. With Neil Pearts solo, he was using both traditional grip, as well as matched grip.
Phil & Sam
"Professor" Neil Peart was influenced by Buddy Rich plus Gene Krupa, mostly Buddy. When Buddy died, Neil played with Buddy's orchestra in a tribute concert.
Also Gene Kruppa Modern Drummer magazine regards Krupa as "the founding father of modern drumset playing".
Buddy Rich is your favorite drummer's favorite drummer's favorite drummer, unless your favorite drummer is Neil Peart.
Buddy was Neil Peart's hero, Neail performed at Buddy Rich Tributes 2 times, they are available on RUclips and are definitely worth a watch
BTW, if it matters, the music is an adaptation of the "Symphonic Dances from West Side Story" so......not James Bond. 😁
Firstly thanks for playing the whole tune as it puts it in context as a piece of Jazz. He was probably the greatest drummer of all time but if you like this try Art Blakey "Caravan"
Carl Palmer 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Buddy Rich was still touring almost till the day he died, in 1987. I remember going to a concert at my local high school, when I was still in Middle school, to watch a concert featuring him. I'm guessing that was either 1984 or 1985.
The " chopstick" thing you reference is just traditional grip
this performance was just 5 years before he passed.
I am not familiar with Buddy Rich, let alone knew that he was Peart's inspiration. Thank you for introducing me to him. I have to say, comparing this to Peart's performance in Frankfurt - I see so many of the same moves. I can see so many similarities, so I am that much more thankful for Buddy Rich. Now I wonder if that's the same music they play at the end of the Frankfurt performance?
I was fortunate to see Buddy perform at Disneyland in the 70's. I was a teen who knew a lot about rock drummers and was blown away by Buddy's skills.
Many times on the stage at Carnation Plaza, I (and another drummer friend) would stand at stage right just few feet from Buddy and watch in awe.
The reputation of Buddy Rich allowed him to rub noses with the most influential people in entertainment.
Toronto's Robb "Robbo" Reiner of Anvil and his son, Tyler, have 'Traditional Grip Tuesday' posts on Facebook in honour of Buddy Rich.
The music is actually from West Side Story.
From my late teen years I tried to collect every Buddy Rich album I could find. I started out as a Rush fan, being a drummer, but when I discovered Buddy, I wanted to hear everything he ever played and try to learn from him. After many years of listening and watching him, it always seemed to me that he just got better with age, right to the end; he refused to quit. Comparing Buddy to Neil, it is much harder to be creative with less drums, for a stroke by stroke comparison. When it comes to technique, give a guy just a snare and see what he can do. That being said, though I, along with many drummers, have long considered Buddy to be the G.O.A.T., I have come to appreciate Neil’s arrangements and colors, and how he supports each song so uniquely. Vastly different styles, but much to enjoy from both of them.
One of the greatest drummers of all time
I'll stand on "the greatest" till my last breath.
He's also got the kick drum going insane 😳
Between Buddy and Neil is Carl Palmer of ELP. with the 1st ever electric drum solo. Before you do it watch the video about his way too heavy 2 and a half ton steel drum kit. Watch this video before doing ELP... Carl Palmer talks Steel Drum kit ELP Emerson Lake & Palmer Touring 70s... Then do the studio version of... ELP Toccata (for the best version of the electronic drums )...and ... Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Karn Evil 9 1st impression, part 2.(Cal Jam,1974) Remastered by RudenkoArt (He is into the martial arts and has great stamina)...Still going today in his 70's
You guys should check out John Bonham on "Moby Dick". The Live Royal Albert Hall concert.
Drumeo listed Rich as the greatest drummer of all time. (Peart was No. 2.) If you're exploring drummers, you should check out Gene Krupa with Benny Goodman's big band doing "Sing, Sing, Sing". This recording is a bit over 9 minutes but it's worth it. However, if that's too long there are other videos out there that are about three or four minutes.
ruclips.net/video/rtB6dijjWl8/видео.html
He was on johnny carson so mamy times...livedcseeing him back then. Was a funny guy with a chip on his shoulder though.
Look up Buddy chastising his band on the bus. Hilarious. "Clams!!"
Joe Morello was a contemporary and like Buddy Rich, lots of licks of theirs that Bonzo emulated.
Moreso than Peart imo.
Lots more soul and grit than Neal Peart had. So technical and clean...no oomph.
Hey folks, the music they were playing was from "West Side Story" until the Sax solo came in and then #$@%$, I have know idea, lol. They finished the song in the last few bars. Peace, Bill
Check out the video of Buddy Rich and Tonight Show drummer, Ed Shaunessy, in a classic drum battle. Just mind blowing!
Maybe another great drummer, probably the technical best drummer i know. It is Kai Hatho from Nightwish. There are a few warming-up drum video's from him. I hope you pick one to enjoy his high skills. Greetings from the Netherlands
There are some very important drummers from his era. Gene Krupa, who heavily influenced Keith Moon. Krupa was a fantastic performer, his expressions and movements have to be seen. Louie Bellson, not only a fantastic drummer and double bass innovator, but a tremendous songwriter who was very prolific. Joe Morello, who was a big inspiration for John Bonham. Little known fact about Buddy Rich, is that he was a great tap dancer and held his own against Steve Condos, who is the greatest tap dancer of all time. Type this in "Steve Condos and Buddy Rich Tap Challenge"
If Buddy could read music, what would the sheet music even look like? And if the sheet music did somehow exist reading it would probably slow the process. Just an amazing drummer.
There's probably upwards of a dozen appearances on Jordan Carson that you can find on RUclips to see Buddy Rich.
He also has a bit on RUclips where he has this funny. Doing drums thing with Jerry Lewis, the famous comedian.
As great as this is, it's not even Buddy at his best. He was in poor health. He played at an extremely high level even after his quadruple bypass heart surgery. Played this way until his death in 1987. He played through extreme pain and discomfort. Had chronic back problems too.
Buddy rich was only one of Neil Peart's heroes. The other drummer Neil hero was Gene Krupa who was also playing around the same time as Buddy Rich. Both are excellent drummers who started in the late 40's and played through the 50's, 60's and 70's.
Buddy also had a fierce drum battle against Animal from The Muppet Show! Check it out!
The music the band was playing was from West Side Story from the early 60s .
Buddy Rich and Frank Sinatra were roommates and sometimes adversaries in the Tommy Dorsey Band back in the ''40s getting into it numerous times...
GOAT drummer. The end
This show is from 1982 and there Buddy was 65 years old, he already had serious heart problems and he was advised to stop playing but he did not accept it and he died in 1987, due to these heart problems, at the age of 70.
When I was young it was general knowledge he was the best drummer. The opening ochestra number was from West Side Story.
Try Some Gene Krupa .. another great
Buddy Rich is undoubtedly one of the greatest drummers of all time another one to check out would be Gene Krupa I've got an album I think it's from the 50s with Gene and Buddy on it and it's legendary I would argue that literally all drummers stand on the shoulders of Jean and Buddy
You guys should also check out Carl Palmer from ELP. Watch what’s called The Solo.
The band is called "Air Force".. They and Buddy played in Europe that year to stading O crowds nightly. He also took along his 17 year -old daughter, as a way of making up for "All the time I was on the road and not being there for her" She wrote on a DVD concert's liner notes: " At last I understood who my dad really was, and why playing was so important to him..each show left me mesmerized". Other drummers who were fans of him: Keith Moon ( The Who) Ginger Baker ( Cream) , Ed Shaunssey ( The Tonight Show Band) and Elvin Jones ( John Coltrane)..as ya saw, Buddy's technique was baaad-azz...Proof ya didn't need a big drum kit to sound big.
The left hand drumstick was the more traditional way drummers were taught how to hold the stick for the snare drum. What I find impressive is how he's not really doing any big motions with his arms. Watched him in the 60s on the Ed Sullivan show live.
I'm a drummer and learned from Buddy, Neil Peart and others. He was a pioneer and, as you say, probably the most difficult to copy. He produced a snare alphabet book of 26 variations to perfect. Obviously Buddy, a natural, started young and created his own unique style encompassing speed and precision. To my mind, for all the above, such a phenom, I will give my vote to him as the greatest drummer ever.
The jazz drummers, of his era would hold, if they were right handed, the drumstick in the palm, of their hand, with the palm up; southpaws would just switch it up.
Pull up the video of Buddy Rich having a drum battle with Animal on the Muppet Show.
When you get Frank Sinatra to introduce you and it comes with a hug. You know you have made it to the GOAT level.
LOve it!!! Neil Peart honor of Buddy ??? ♥ Really LOVE THE REACTION!!! Maybe check out NEIL PEART Buddy Rich HONOR????? Surprises awaits!! :) ♥AND, or... Victor Wooten bass music????????? :) “Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” ~ Romans 15:13
I saw him perform several times including at the Chicago Jazz Fest in 85, and each time it was pure magic. He was incredible. So fluid and effortless. The best!
Hey, guys, I'm old enough to have watched buddy riches. Appearances on the Johnny Carson show and there were many appearances because he was considered to be one of the regulars. Anyway, I think it's very cool that you guys decided to go down this path because everybody talks about some of the greatest rock drummers of all time. And they always refer to John Bonham and ginger Baker and that whole group of guys. But when you see Buddy Rich perform on those drums, it's hard to imagine anyone being better or faster. Let's remember anytime you see videos on buddy. Rich, it's always him doing solos, not being part of a group and as great as the half, a dozen excellent drummers from the rock era. They still don't have any solo videos for us to really focus on them and them alone. Me myself? I think John Bonner may have been the greatest, although I'm sure some people would argue, but he certainly in the top 2S3. But with that being said, I do believe that Buddy Rich may be better. But he's absolutely most definitely at least as good.
I am surprised you did not recognize the man who introduced Buddy Rich. He was kind of famous in his own right. LOL
Buddy was, to me, the greatest drummer ever. He started when he was a very young child, his parents being vaudeville performers.
Neil Peart wasn't taught by Buddy Rich. They never met.
This is the arrangement of a music suite from West Side Story composed by Leonard Bernstein. Buddy was 64 and as others have said he had a heart attack in the middle of this.
I saw him on a variety showing the 60s or Johnnh Carson. He played the drums while upside down.
This is completely a work of art. Given what he was going through. and how he not only made it through but powered through it. The man was a god among men.
Buddy Rich has done a fair amount of "drum offs" with other drummers. Legends like Gene Krupka, Sammy Davis jr,. Animal from "The Muppets, Johnny Carson who Buddy taught to play drums. Jerry Lewis. These videos are all available online. Enjoy.
I got to see Buddy Rich live once and it was amazing. ❤
This might be your first reaction to Buddy Rich but I'm willing to bet it all that it won't be your last.
I need to try it all dressed up!
