Funny stuff

I sit here with my mouth hanging open every time I watch Buddy Rich. This is a special treat, though. Out of this world drumming, comedy, and a subtle lesson on how a drummer plays with a band when not soloing. Buddy knew when to lay back and just be “the drummer in the band”. He listens to the rest of the band and adds only what’s needed to complement the music. There was a lot more to Buddy Rich than his solos...he was a complete drummer.

Carson from New York, wow so long ago. Good old Ed and the "LIVE" Alpo commercials. REAL TV

I'm pretty sure Ed said "Shit, look a that." When he gave that dog the bowl.

Yes sir, you are correct. "For its first decade, Johnny Carson's The Tonight Show was based at 30 Rockefeller Plaza, New York City, with some episodes recorded at NBC Studios in Burbank, California; on May 1, 1972, the show moved to Burbank as its main venue and remained there exclusively after May 1972 until Carson's retirement." Johnny Carsons career was 1962 to 1992.

That’s confusing! The date of the performance show’s November 1972, but you say as of May 1, 1972, the tonight show was exclusively in Burbank. It’s obvious this isn’t in Burbank, I had the opportunity to attend a taping of the Tonight Show in June, 1974 in Burbank and there was no audience behind the band. I did see Buddy in a lounge in Des Moines Iowa in the late 70s, but I don’t remember the year. I has a table about 15 from his drums. Thanks for posting.

29 Nov '72...on 29 Nov '71, the band was in Paris.

8:34 - Johnny exclaims "One for the host!" after he jabs Rich. In January 1979, Rich gets him back. "That's one for the drummer!" Johnny will say.

Great stuff. Legend

When asked if he could read, he should have taken the line from the tune, "The Lip", by Louis Prima and Keely Smith; "I read a little bit, but not enough to hurt me none".

🐶Beautiful Pal😂 Semper Fi, Ed!

Buddy Rich crushed Mel Torme's drumming career, but I'm glad, because Mel turned out to be an even better singer.

OK, this is one of the few times where Buddy isn't taking his playing totally seriously. He's goofing around, and at the end of his solo he's INTENTIONALLY playing badly to be funny (looks like he's trying to get a reaction from Doc). It's one of the few moments in history where I can honestly say I could play better than a two bar stretch of Buddy Rich's drumming. Hell, it may be the ONLY moment where I could say I can play better than two bars of Buddy's drumming! 🤣 Buddy was not only the greatest drummer in the world, he may also have been the biggest smartass in the world! 😂

I remember seeing this in my college dorm when it originally aired. I also recall he wasn't all that sharp that night. An "off night" for him. Seeing this now 47 years later - yeah, he sucked that night. My memory was correct. Of course a Buddy Rich "off night" is better than most drummer's good nights.

Buddy Rich was a master and a genuis on drums, but he always seemed kind of embarrassed about admitting that he couldn't read music.

Watching Johnny Carson's introduction of Buddy Rich at 0:06 made me wonder if Buddy took umbrage at Johnny's quip about Buddy's family locking him in a trunk when he was not even two years old. Buddy seemed a little surly here, and that could possibly be the reason. Buddy's relationship with his parents was strained, at best, and such a quip can sting one's emotions, hitting too close to home. Fortunately, both men had a mutual respect for each other that was obvious, in addition to being real pros with thick skins. Such a quip might be considered out of line nowadays in an effort to avoid hurting the guest's feelings.
