I have heard people say this and that about various rock drummers. IMO everyone else is second best.
My best friend's brother was the baritone sax player in this band. A group of us went to see the band play in Syracuse. I was no more than ten feet away from Buddy when he did this solo. His hands were like two hummingbirds.
Buddy Rich was a childhood hero of mine. He was just magic. I wanted to be like him as a drummer ..... but I never got anywhere close.
Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
John 14:19 Jesus said: Because I live, you also will live.
IMO he was the best. There are many styles of drummers. I am not one to really say who is the best because of how drummers work inside bands.
But Buddy had major chops. He was a master. Soloing is sometimes frowned upon. Buddy could play inside but he made a living as a feature musician because of what he could do with sticks.
I think Buddy Rich was the inspiration for many of the great drummers who followed. There are greats that inspire others. They are few and far between. Just like some of the early blues artists inspired what came to become R&R. Artists such as Robert Johnson and Lead Belly. We owe so much of the music we have listened to in our life to the musicians who came before it.
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.
Love me some Shel Silverstein. I became a fan when I was 15 years old.
Look up/read: "The Devil and Billy Markham." That was my first contact with his work.
PLEEZE: don't listen to some lameass YooToob version that might be available. Read it, and Listen to it in your own voice- as it spins out, In Real Time. I read this opus way back in HS, when I found it- just after the centerfold of a 'borrowed' copy of my Pops' Playboy Magazine.
I'd link it to this site, but the content and language would get it bounced from DT, post-haste.
The Rolling Stones are excited to announce that the blues rock superstar Joe Bonamassa will join the STONES TOUR '24 HACKNEY DIAMONDS as a guest artist in Seattle, WA on Wednesday, May 15 at Lumen Field.
Jade just told me. That is pretty damn cool.
I gave her a request. Try and see if any of the Stones or their people would have a contact to get a print of the Beggars Banquet inside jacket picture of the banquet.
I have always loved that photo. I bought the album when it came out but it got lost in time.
No apologies here. I liked the Carpenters. Karens voice was gold. It's rare that a woman can hit those lower notes as smoothly as she could while still being able to get in to the higher register. Her brother Richard was a great musician and arraigner, not to mention a good back-up singer.
It's a sexy song and I don't know who was blowing the sax, but they could make that reed work.

If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.
This is a new track made by modern tech for an older star. For those that don’t know Randy Travis, he had a massive stroke a few years back that robbed him of his voice. A voice that made me like country music for a spell. I still think Randy had one of the most unique voices in music. The stroke took away a songbird's gift. Ai has restored it. At least as well as can be expected by modern times. Randy worked with the tech geniuses, music producers, and another singer to create this track in his iconic voice.
