Buddy Rich Up Close™ – FREE PREVIEW
Posted by admin on Nov.28, 2010, under Uncategorized
In 1982, Buddy Rich filmed three shows over three days at the Statler Hotel in New York. They were never aired – in fact, never edited. This Masterpiece is in pristine condition and will be released on Drum Channel as The Buddy Rich Show – coming soon.
In this preview, Don Lombardi discusses the event, Buddy Rich Up Close™, a special edit of The Buddy Rich Show.
You get the whole preview of Love For Sale.
The full DVD spotlights six songs – Love For Sale, Bugle Call Rag, West Side Story, Birdland, Greensleeves, and Dancing Men – with as many cameras as possible focusing on Buddy and his incredible drumming technique. Using Drum Channel’s player and five player-switches, you can view the show’s main edit as well as watch it with three different versions of audio – drums hot, band hot, and bass drum hot – AND on switch 5 you can watch it in slow motion! Please note: these switches are not available on this YouTube preview.
The DVD is available here: http://www.drumchannel.com/store/ProductDetail.aspx?prourl=p-311-buddy-rich-up-close.aspx
Duration : 0:7:58

@JoeJacari when you say “travis barker came along and changed drums forever” and what you really mean is “is a mediocre player and provides people who know nothing about drumming a low level to aspire to reach” then yes you would be right

Now that is some kick butt big band jam! Ive always thought buddy was one of the top few one could call “best” drummers of all time – he is so fast polished and powerful and he played like his life depended on it until the day he died, RIP Buddy

Steve Marcus was the lead tenor player with Buddy for a long time. He was also in the BR Big Band when they did the first BR Memorial Scholorship gig at the Wiltern years ago. Buddy’s Ludwigs sound killer BTW.

Fresh water bats …
Fresh water bats and austerity measures. Bad grimmaces and odd, hunched body postures. Anger at the band and cursing out the frizzled hair pieces like a spoiled brat.
Then Travis Barker came on the scene and changed drums forever.
When Travis hits the stage and his drum set flips upside down and he jams, you can hear the screams of the crowd and see the frenzy and tears in the eyes of adoring young chicks.
This is the power of TB, this is Travis Barker unleashed.
Who needs 1980s schmaltz?

I traveled with a band and one day Buddy was performing when we were not. He asked if anybody could give him a ride. We did better then that we let him sleep at our quarters which was lavish. He was supposed to be brass. He was not at all and we laughed most the night. Buddy early on was a great tap dancer. Most do not know that. when he did the movie with Eleanor Powell and did a number with her he said she had more rhythm with her feet then he did with his hands. I liked him for his honesty.

This is the best DVD! Really unique. For those of us who saw Buddy play live this captures some of that electric energy he had “up close”. Always inspiring to see such natural talent (a rarity today among a sea of mediocre drummers). Bravo Bud!
