You know what my favorite bong about KZread is? Watching a commercial right in the middle of a drum solo. It’s the apex of human achievement.

I would say that his snare speed (one-hand rolls) has been surpassed (or at least matched) by many modern drummers. However, no one had that speed until much later. I believe Jojo Mayer was one of the first to begin to even understand how Buddy got that speed, or at least teach it. There's a handful of heavy metal drummers who's got control beyond belief these days. Alot of them are using triggers, and very few of them groove the way Buddy did.

Bonham is my Fav Rock drummer. If you wanna learn some Bonham drum licks, watch Buddy Rich. He made it look easy and kicked your butt at the same time with the Carson band who were all " unknown " musicians that were monsters unto themselves. Braaavo!! In the days when you had to be able to PLAY to make it.

depends on what you're asking on the drummer.

The greatest hands of any drummer I've ever seen! Just his left hand alone is beyond all belief. And when he would play with Doc Severinsen and the Tonight Show Orchestra it was pure magic. Buddy and Ed Shaughnessy always had a great mutual respect for each other.

I saw both Buddy and Eddie perform separately. Met them both. What a thrill

Everything and every skill reaches a peak of what is possible and the maximum abilities of the human being. Buddy Rich is in my opinion the the epitome of just that.

For a right handed drummer, Buddy's "weak" hand moves faster than anything I've ever seen. I've been playing the drums for 20+ years and could never even deign to achieve a fraction of the greatness that was Buddy Rich. 🤘🏻 One of the all time greats to ever grace the throne.

Probably the only video I’ve seen in which my smile is unchanged for the entire duration . The feeling of his pushing so hard no matter what and still making time to have a laugh because , why not ? The red sweater one , evoked misty eyes and laughs when he finished . It’s something so hard to put into words … but when you feel it , you know . This is like witnessing an alchemy… someone playing with dynamite like it’s no big deal and respecting it at the same time . Willing to go to the edge and jump off for us . God bless this gd wonder of the world

The world may never see or hear a talent like Buddy Rich. But we can say that he called down the thunder and crushed it.

Buddy Rich the human Gatling gun of drummers.

No one ever been as great as this guy. His clarity, consistency, phrasing is unmatched. And he hits, drummers gotta hit. And that it comes through on these recordings that are one notch better than stone tablets, and a type of music that is not on heavy rotation for me, its just awe inspiring. Whatever your list, top 5, top 10, or best ever, he has to be on that list.

Pre-rock and roll stuff. He could have played in any rock n'roll band if he was younger! Around when they were.

This is why he’s the GOAT

Most people don't realize that Buddy Rich was either the favorite drummer or the 2nd favorite drummer, in Keith Moon's case (Gene Krupa)....John Bonham, Ginger Baker, Neil Peart, etc. Loved Buddy...

Wearing a 3-piece suit and a cheap toupet but still is capable of doing all these awesome licks. He was one of a kind.

Incredible

Now that’s a Drummer!!!!

I remember seeing this live. As a drummer in a garage band, I discovered Buddy Rich by watching Johnny Carson. Johnny was a good friend and helped Buddy revive his career when the public was losing interest in jazz. I loved the Tonight Show band and I anxiously awaited the shows with Buddy. This was long before the days of the VCR. Since then, I learned to play jazz and moonlighted for over 50 years. While I respect Buddy's ability, he is not my favorite drummer. In the rock genre, I think Jon "Bonzo" Bonham was the best. In the crossover rock/jazz, I prefer Danny Seraphine. My overall favorite drummer in jazz - and I have many - is Joe Morello.

Perhaps...I'm a HORRIBLE lip reader myself, and I would not be surprised if he couldn't hear as those sound stages often have terrible acoustics. Sound stages are built to keep noise from outside out...not for acoustics. In this situation I think there was an equal chance that he was complimenting Conte Candoli on a great trumpet solo.

Objectively the greatest

Buddy Rich was the absolute beast! New drummer for ya Boomers to check out. El Estepario Siberiano.
