  My father played lead alto in the Buddy Rich Band for 3+ years in the mid-late 70's. I used to sit on Buddy's lap and play his drums. He was the GOAT.

  How has he just now discovered Buddy Rich. He’s easily on the Mount Rushmore of greatest drummers of all time across all genres.

  "Lets see what he's got." Most understated statement to a Buddy Rich performance ever.

  By FAR the best drummer of all time…. His West Side Story with his own band was and still is pure joy…

  True story: Buddy was doing a big concert gig, had a heart attack in the middle of a song, finished the song, finished the concert, and only then went to the hospital. He had already had a few heart attacks before, so he knew what they felt like, and back then they really had no effective treatment beyond aspirin anyway. Legend. GOAT!!!!!!!!

  Been a bass player for 50 years and I seen him in concert about 20 feet from him and I couldn't take my eyes off of him!  To me he is the absolute greatest drummer of all time.

  I must say that Buddy Rich is ahead of time of the atomic clock. Much respect!

  I'm 64 years old and started drumming in 3rd grade. Buddy is my all-time hero, and I had the fortune to see him live three times. Truly an amazing percussionist.  There will never be anyone else like him. Thanks for keeping his music alive!!!

  Buddy was genuinely impressed with Doc Severinsen's band. Like ha said, it's not easy to do what they did with a brand new chart. All the players in that band were cream of the crop. Best big band musicians in the world at that time.
