Some Buddy Rich


link to video

I had a lot to drink last night, but woke up in a great mood today. So, why not some Buddy Rich, as it’s cool, it’s genius, and it has so much energy. Great video of this master. Enjoy!

Gene Krupa on TV in 1966

Pretty cool, amazingly cool. And here’s another fun jazzy video :)

Many consider Krupa to be the most influential drummer of the 20th century, particularly with regard to the development of the drum kit.

Krupa’s main influence began in the 1930s with his collaboration with the Slingerland drum company, but he had already made history in 1927 as the first kit drummer ever to record using a bass drum pedal. His drum method was published in 1938 and immediately became the standard text.
