| Jazz for aficionados Another example of the excellent Buddy Rich in a big band setting with some outstanding solo's in the brass sections and on piano. Buddy plays a short but electrifying solo at the end of the song.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2Dh1cyHKlA | |

| Jazz for aficionados roc do you honestly think I believe that since 7:07 pm when I posted about Buddy Rich until 7:58 when you posted your retort of my post, that you checked 348 pages and "over 17,000 posts", in your own words, is simply not doable.Unless you have h... | |

| Jazz for aficionados As for Buddy Rich there are hundreds of recordings he appears on where you are not "aware he’s even there". The bulk of Buddy’s short - medium - long drum solo’s are live to please an audience who are screaming for a solo. Buddy is one of the grea... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I know many "new jazz" musicians who are good - very good - excellent. There are just not that many of them today as there was pre 1970.I know this because my Jazz CD collection is comprised of approximately 75% pre 1970 and 25% 1970 to the presen... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Trying to catch up on all the posts.mary jo,Thanks for the quotes of Buddy Rich and Philip Howie on Ravel's Bolero. That happens to be one of the classical music songs I listen to occasionally. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I saw Rudresh Mahanthappa at the NYC Winter Jazzfest in January 2013 just before James Carter took the stage.I am not a music critic and not everyone will agree with a "critics poll".Rudresh Mahanthappa, otoh, deserves all the accolades he has rec... | |
| Jazz for aficionados orpheus10, This is how Buddy Rich reacts to members of his band not "pulling their weight":https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=covUesgI6fA&t=184sAfter you listen to a few minutes of the above (which is quite enough) watch this and see the talented... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Here is an interview with, IMHO, one of the greatest drum players (it can be argued he was the greatest) and musician to ever play this thing we call jazz. And he was a perfectionist who expected the greatest effort, at all times, whether in the s... | |
