Buddy Rich Drum Solo

[Mowac]

Buddy Rich first,......Neil Peart second...........fuck Travis Barker.

CASE CLOSED.



[TheEldarTree]

Gar Samuelson without a doubt was the best metal drummer

[mirnachituzz]

woooooow

[billster13]

Who is BArker?

[4against1]

@billster13 he plays for blink you dumbfuck his name is travis barker show some fucking respect homo

[Joeskateapool]

@4against1 you are ignorant and now minimal about drumming and music at BEST

[sleeve51]

It's not open for debate on who the greatest drummer in the world is. Buddy annihilates them all. Often imitated, but NEVER duplicated. I thought Travis Barker was a country/western singer that croons about the plight of the hillbillies. R.I.P. Buddy. You are sorely missed!

[47JGreg]

Absolutely incredible technique. This Guy is without any doubt THE Drummer of all time !!!!!

The guy is ALWAYS MUSICAL.... no B.S.

[tillablegull61]

how?

[1Daddoz1]

Travis who?

[ThrowingItAway]

Anyone else notice he's wearing high heeled boots?

[Chileno6921]

Travis barker?... in what degeneration are we

[hairyreasoner]

Awesome!!!

[drdave313]

Who in the fuck is Barker??? LOL!!!

[1970drummerboy]

LOOK AT MY CHANNEL I HAVE BUDDY RICH - UP CLOSE UPLOADED!

[8Zeitgeist]

tim alexander.. neil peart.. lombardo..

but travis barker.. wtf.. damn i remember the days when trolls used to sit under bridges and ask riddles and shit..

[Meatpipeify]

I remember when I thought Mike Portnoy was a good drummer.

[aRETARTEDsquirl14]

@Meatpipeify mike portnoy is a great drummer just this guy is better

[Samsgarden]

@aRETARTEDsquirl14

You reckon?

jeez

[DrummerClassical]

YEAH BUDDY

[DucaleEfston]

I remember when I used to be able to play drums like this then I took an arrow in...

Who the fuck am I kidding no one could ever play drums like this XD

[kylethebassist]

Adam Gray. You're welcome.

[tpbenedict1969]

the best

[phwaizy]

I think I've seen about 1 comment saying travis barker is good, and about 10 complaining about how many comments about travis barker there is.

[FreestyleLilWayne]

a beast a true beast!!

[LLB61959]

This man is a master drum technican..........awesome

[ludwig12344321]

Buddy Rich is a better drummer dead than Travis is alive!!!!!

[thecryingshames]

Is Buddy THAT small of a guy..or are his toms THAT friggin' gigantic??

[oxleydude]

i bet his mom was buying new pots and pans every week.

[rockinredneck57]

That's why Carson was the BEST talk show host ever. His comic timing was as impeccable as Buddy's drumming. He knew personally a lot of his guests and got them to open up. I miss both these guys.

[OBXmp9]

@rockinredneck57 I miss them too. Buddy and Johnny were always hilarious together on the show.

[rockinredneck57]

@OBXmp9 True, and Carson and just about everybody. He cut up with everyone, especially the singers and stars he knew personally, which seemed to be most of them and they always cut on each other. Guys like Don Rickles and him could go at each other for the whole hour and a half and have the audience rolling.

[ZappaSheik]

I wonder how many drummer's that gets on talkshows to only play drums and being the main event on the show these days.

Buddy was and in my opinion is still one of the greatest drummers if not the greatest and biggest influence ever on this planet.

[Drummerchild99]

@ZappaSheik adam grey from texas in july was on jay leno a few months ago

[TugaWoWPrivateServer]

There are 5 guys, a Genie, people who like travis and dislike buddy rich, people who like buddy rich and dislike travis, travis barker, and buddy rich. The genie can give them on wish.

People who like Travis: I want that people who like buddy rich, start dislking him

People who like Buddy rich: I want that people who like travis barker star disliking him

Travis: I want a cup of tea

Buddy: I want a cup of tea

Seriously guys, travis and buddy dont give a fuck on your comments on who is better

[Rafaa741]

buddy>>>jesus



[salimcataloglu]

@superugly75 thanks for giving Gene Krupa first in the list :D lets talk about Krupa, and ignore barker "barkers" please :D

[j1spen]

when you can play "all the small things", then come back and call barker crap!

[bengativo6]

travestite who? lol i laugh at the new kids generations.they think pretty much blink 172 is their world.and the baddest they look the better they are.when they are just a bunch of pussies thinking the world just started 20 years ago. get the fuck outta here with your fuckin blank 142 and your shit,come and talk to me when you start getting high grades on school.

[superugly75]

Gene Krupa,Mel Lewis,Art Blakey,Max Roach,Steve Gadd,Tony Williams,Louis Bellson,Elvin Jones,Cindy Blackman,Terri Lynn-Carrington,Roy Haynes,Brain Mantia, Jeff Porcaro,Marvin Smitty Smith,Jo-Jo Meyer,Tony Royster Jr.,Dennis Chambers,Greg Bissonette & a whole list of GREAT drummer of all genres and all you douches talk about is Travis Barker on a Buddy Rich post. That's sac-religious.....

[ritsch]

SHUT UP ABOUT BARKER, JEZUS CHRIST

[lumpheadthump]

@ritsch you're shouting at children with no real training in percussion

[SuperEnigmation]

@ritsch Agreed. Why do I have to see "Travis Barker" in the comments of EVERY drum solo video I ever watched? I don't see people talking about Jaco in EVERY bass solo video unless the person in the video played similar to and/or was inspired/taught by Jaco.

[tmonator]

Buddy vs. someone. Someone loses.

[MrPrevoo1010]

@tmonator buddy vs. everyone. Everyone loses

[thepuzzler1]

AND hes a comedian!

[1960mayhem]

I wonder who's the second best drummer to ever live?

[W0RDonTH3street]

i dunno justin beibers pretty good hahahahahahahahahahaha you know im playin i couldnt keep a straight face while typin that hahahahahaha i shouldnt even be talking about justin beiber while listening to buddy rich i feel bad now

but buddy rich and neal peart should have a baby

[TomDrummer15]

Buddy Rich could have done a better drum solo with his cock than Travis Barker

[darkblade1011]

who fuck bought Travis barker into all this its like going to a Van Halen video and seeing comments about a certain teen pop icon who i should not speak of

[bigworm92035]

All these people saying Buddy had no technique are plain out clueless on what it takes to pull this shit off. Left hand no one on earth can do what he did......there are a few that are close. But a single stroke roll with one hand that sounds like your ripping paper ummmmm I can't think of anyone who can pull that off as clean and for as long as Buddy could. And hell he was still playing top notch solos when he was a senior citizen. Not to many old guys that got that kinda skill

[bigworm92035]

There is only one drummer to date that could pull the stuff Buddy did. His name is Charlie Adams!! Buddy and Charlie are not only drummers. But master minds in physics as well. Tilting the snare foward like that has something to do with it. Either way Buddy has and will always be considered the greatest. And you can even ask the greatest today and they will say the same.

[SonorSonicFan]

Kind of cool to see this guy play a kit with two toms on the kick. usually he plays one tom on the kick and two on the floor. Cool stuff.

[evenmix1]

Travis Barker are you fucking kidding me he is a hack .This guy is a god compared to travis barker.It was extremely hard to get on carson for a band or comedian let alone a drummer by himself to perform a drum solo he played the hi hat from both sides for christsakes. travis barker is not even close HE would tell you the same if he knew anything about drums.

[1947yul]

фантастика 50 лет назад я услышал его!

[MrSoHordy]

Buddy is obviously better than travis doesnt mean you cant like travis.

[ozzy1351]

Let me sum this up.......FUCKING WOW!!!!

[geoffelmo]

Thank god for the new wave.It got rid of idiots like this.Self indulgent nonsense ,best packed of to the time it evolved from.I'm not say its good , bad or indeferrent,just best left where it sits as history.Move on guys.

[Justwatchin5]

FUCKIN BUDDY RICH!! :D This guy is my fucking herrrroooooooooo<3 

[maxqd3]

That was crazy... Though the last few seconds was kinda awkward

[bigmidget117]

I like Travis Barker and Buddy Rich. They're both great drummers so stfu and stop saying whos better

[viewmore100]

@bigmidget117 To say they're both great drummers as though they're equal is fuckin moronic. You're an Idiot.

[1Sifting]

@bigmidget117 You think travis barker is better dont you.

[UNCIEAL]

still thinking about the sweater when you look at Buddy from the side the white stripes look stuck on? anyone agree? what was that all about ? a 70 s fash

ion?

[UNCIEAL]

Great solo but did he think it was fancy dress and he came as a Clown fish?

[pinocchio007]

der beste drummer überhaupt :-)

[blues970123]

and his sweater

[TRx3me]

pure genius !!!

[beanboyo]

How the hell can he hit so quickly when he holds the left stick like that?

[floridajeet]

Buddy Rich is LEGEND...... period.

younger ppl dont know how good he was/is

if you watch him, he plays OLD style, left hand is remarkable

[elknobomucho]

Always preferred Joe Morello myself. Matter of taste I suppose

[cegtown]

Buddy Rich is in his own Galaxy.

[Laxaplaya]

Buddy Rich could do a better drum solo with his drumsticks then Travis could with his whole kit. That is the truth, for real.

[Kostly]

Every single Buddy Rich video I see the top comment deriding this dumbshit talking about Travis Barker being the better drummer..that simply cannot be. Buddy Rich is a straight up and down legend. You know part of the pantheon of the GREATS. Travis Barker simply is not there. Not even close. Please stop trolling the threads with that. Every drummer in the world, myself NOT included (I'm just a hobbyist), knows that Buddy Rich did more for drumming than Travis Barker will in 2 life times.

[ddrum121]

but keith moon was crazier

[tobiasbass2901]

very good!

[Ronnybengt]

what is travis baker??..thats what this vid says among other things...such as buddy is god

[97drummerboi]

Buddy rich could whip anybodys ass in a drum battle just using his hi hat. :)

[Kostly]

@97drummerboi HAHAHAH!!! NO DOUBT! Buddy's AMAZING!

[DETROITBULLET]

I will pay $1000.00 dollars to any drummer who can beat buddy on the snare and hi hats ! so put your hand s where your mouth is "BOYS"

[Jig1123]

@DETROITBULLET One of the gayer things I've read.

[pawelgaj]

hm... I am truly wondering what the great legend of Buddy Rich comes from... I know this video shows soloing but even when soloing a sense of musicality, not only technical skills, is what matters I think...

[2bluefor1]

Did Jamerson ever get a chance to play with Buddy? Imagine the groove...

[1XobX1]

a great solo but he is playing most of all snare and hihat that is kinda boring

[thewsca]

Not as good as Ronnie Tutt,but a great solo.

[Shane7952]

@thewsca No other drummer in history or today has been able to use their left hand like BuddyRich

[DrumFrenzy123]

buddy rich killed waldo and took his shirt because he thought it was swell and because he can.

[shane69999]

oh wow.... what amazing television  not

[FecesPeces]

Holy hell dirtbags! Enough with the Travis Barker crap! He is an ok drummer at best. He just smashes everything with zero dynamics or feeling. Screw Barker. I'm sick of hearing every true great drummer be compared to that fag! I saw some dumbass fanboy actually say Barker was better than Paul Bostaph! Get off Barkers dick!

[nodrush80]

@FecesPeces He's not even a drummer.

[CoLuCcIMoB760]

@FecesPeces travis barker haters..dog how can you hate on someone thats successful...drum off with travis and if you beat him THEN you can say he sucks..

[Dumpsterbaby1991]

@CoLuCcIMoB760 You arrange it, I'll be there.

[CoLuCcIMoB760]

@Dumpsterbaby1991 lol

[OBXmp9]

@FecesPeces Amen!

[Scarecrow545]

@FecesPeces

Paul Bostaph is a fucking beast. Best drummer in metal. Of course, you could make a convincing argument for Hoglan as well.

[MrGGAaron]

@Scarecrow545 HA! Lombardo and Bostaph are BOTH legends.

[Scarecrow545]

@MrGGAaron

Well yeah.

[JOEtheHOTTIE]

overrated!

[robertraymondshaw197]

Travis Barker just twats fuck out of his kit whilst being suspended in mid-air.....Yawn!!

[Frijolero18]

@robertraymondshaw197 yeah while he probably has the sticks glued to his hand

[GreenDayOfDenmark]

god he is awesome!!

[rocketman1904]

Poor snare :(

[EvanBProductions]

AND his sweater!

[UNCIEAL]

WQhen i see his weater i cant help thinking of finding Nemo for some reason

[NachyoLulz5596]

Holy shit, at 0:34 was he using 2 fingers for doubles underneath the HH with the hand he was chocking it with. This...is...BOSS

[nastymonsters2]

Must be hot in tht jumper

[MaciejasPL]

How the hell does he do all that?

[animefan1128]

The best way to do a solo on ANY istrument is to know your notes, scales and be able to improvise One The Spot and have fun, which is most important.

But hi-ho-silver RIP Buddy Rich, one of the greatest drummers who has ever lived

[truebones]

and dont forget in his head hes subdividing everything he makes up on the spot in realtime.

[truebones]

@truebones He was thinking about the 3 stooges on the last 5 notes... lol

[truebones]

The job of the drummer is to entertain, Buddy plays like hes singing a improvised song in his head all the way through,,Do you think this has any thing to do with technique or timing? No! Its all a setup to the next little trick, that sets up the middle part then saves some energy for the end, then draws out the rolls, then the n the flourishing finale, its a completely psychological . Yep No counting involved Job Done.

[IanAsis]

stop comparing people and just enjoy the drumming.. We have the same interest in drumming and you still fight? fuck that.

[TheDustyspears]

Buddy Rich's dexterity is worth that of a thousand Travis Barker's or more. Big Band drummers blow ANY rock drummer away, and I play some of the fastest two beat punk music there is. If anybody doubts the speed or technique of Buddy Rich, I'd like to see someone duplicate it. So far I've only seen ONE man succeed. Dick Cully. one of Buddy's students. Youtube him.

[MsBunnydog]

Pound for pound. Although not many pounds on drug addicts like Travis Barker, who otherwise would be widely viewed as a sub standard drummer who worked with a sub standard band. Travis Barker may be the worst drummer ever.

[DubstepHero1]

@MsBunnydog You have no idea what you're talking about, man. Buddy is better than Travis, but Travis is a legend, and if you think he's the worst drummer in the world, you're closed minded and you know nothing about music.

[Jackalope40]

Travis Barker is a good drummer, for sure. But Buddy Rich, despite his obnoxious attitude, was an amazing drummer. I was fortunate to see him a few times before he passed, and altho I was quite young, he made quite an impression on me. Ppl seem to focus on his brash personality more than his actual ability to play the drums. I'll never forget watching him do a one-handed drum roll faster than I could ever imagine doing it w/ two hands... in a dinner theatre in Rockville, Maryland... =)~

[redsoxfan898]

First of all to the douche who watched this fantastic video of one of the greatest drummers to walk the earth, and decided to say Travis barker was better the buddy rich I have one thing to say to you. Take travis's dick out of your mouth and swab the cum out of your ears so you can hear what good drumming sounds like. Buddy and Travis play in different genres so why are you even trying to compare them? Go glorify a tattoo covered delinquent somewhere else

[totallybossxb]

You guys need to stop hating on buddy and travis. they are both fantastic at what they do.

[231272oscar]

Thing is... Even though I'm kind of bored of soloing vids I still seem to get drawn to Buddy. It's just a beautiful, extraordinary thing to watch and seems fresh every time. Like Gadd. But with Travis I can't stay with it for even a minute without getting completely bored and quite irritable.

[Dayga]

Let's put this whole "Travis Barker is a great drummer" conversation into perspective: Comparing Barker to Rich is like comparing a pea-shooter to a hydrogen bomb!

[yourfamilydocter]

and his sweater!!

[Mextazectaces]

Eat shit, double bass pedal fans.

[acovino89]

Where is Travis Barker in this video? It's easy to see who doesn't know shit about drummers with all these people talking about Travis Barker like he's the only drummer anyone knows about cause he did some shit with a fuckin rap song.

[yurifmaia]

Excelente tecnica.

[GiulioMa]

I DO NOT want to hear the WORD "TRAVIS BAKER" in a Rich`s video..please!!!

[jtdrummerboy]

buddy rich was way ahead of his time.. and still is

[wurtisbon4]

so um

i think jesus came back but no one said anything

[MrDRUMBUM55]

buddy rich's sticks was dipped in the virgen mary's vagina

[Secondlifecreator]

It is simple, without buddy rich there would be no travis barker..

[bobzani]

Buddy was the absolute best-like Ali, Gretzky, MJ, Sinatra...

[MrBlarghmaster]

imagine if budy rich played double kick and was in a metal band o.O insane moment

[EddyRattlehead]

Dude I haven't read shit about these arguements but how the fuck could you compare Buddy Rich to Travis Barker? Buddy Rich is so much better its fucking retarded to say.

[twinkiesaram]

i'm still young but have a dad as a music teacher where i've come to appreciate jazz and funk, but it's actually really scary to read when younger generations these days don't know who buddy rich is or other fantastic musicians such as stanley clarke, max roach, charlie parker, john coltrane, charles mingus, and numerous others! the pioneers of styles and techniques! i hope that they are never forgotten as newer musicians such as travis barker and other mainstream artists move to the forefront

[sixsixxsixxxx]

@twinkiesaram jazzers are snob asses and overrated...

[Martiluk1]

@sixsixxsixxxx People who generalize are snobs and overrated.

[Joedogjr]

Exactly, WHAT in the WORLD, in HELL, or in HEAVEN, could possibly bring someone to dislike this???

[ryan191995]

Imagine him on CRACK!

[GlaciusNLV]

God damn, that man could play!

[86223Hector]

Absolutely incredible, big up Buddy Rich, legend/genius.

[balduccirichard]

This guy has a motor on each hand, holy shit!

[nowayou15]

Every Video.. EVERY F***ING VIDEO ABOUT DRUMMING.. Appears A Faggot Talking About Jordison Or Travis Barker.. I Came Here To Watch Buddy Rich.. The Best Drummer Of All Time... Joey Is Pure Speed.. BR Is Speed And Tecnique..

And Barker Has A Huge And Expensive Drumset... BR Can Make You A Concert Only With Chinese Chopsticks.. So Shut Your Mouth And Look Up For The Awesome Video

[Ludwigzildjian1]

:o he actually played with two mounted toms

[samstens]

why are you guys talking about Travis Barker in a Buddy Rich vid? might as well be talking about some random dude off the street.

[13igBird]

travis is flashy, looks like an utter douche, never wears a shirt and has too many tattoos that mean absolutely nothing, and raises his cymbals too high. hes pretty good though, as far as punk rock drummers go. comparing him though to buddy rich... just inconceivable.

[RushFan413]

2:27- slows WAY down...

*CHEERS*

[Shwasy]

Chuck Norris checks under his bed for Buddy Rich before he goes to sleep.

[thisissofuctup]

Good lord!!

[PAnsitoQuemado766]

is it me or like the 1st tom is tuned horribly?!

[daonpa]

@PAnsitoQuemado766 oh man, its like 30 yrs old...... what r u expectin ? btw. some jazz drummers tune their toms exacly like this nowadays ....

[PAnsitoQuemado766]

@daonpa lol i now if it is well tuned then it is only me, it just doesn't sound good to me anyway tuning its a vry personal thing so

[TankzillaTom]

Haha who would compare buddy rich to Travis barker? That's like comparing a Lamborghini to a Mazda 3

[llagask]

...and his sweater.

[SUPERPROJCC]

FRANKIE DUNLOP!!!

[TomMSTie1138]

I thought the drum solo was great, but then Buddy and Johnny start ripping on each other! XD

[dakkar182]

why does on EVERY SINGLE Buddy Rich page people compare him with Travis Barker. I mean, both are amazing drummers,but comparing them would be like comparing a Bentley to Lamborghiny. They are both great cars each unique in it's own way. So don't argue, and just enjoy the music!

[DanglinSausage]

This guy can play death metal for any band.......

[leokasper7107]

must have been a million degrees inside that sweater...

[munchegod]

AWESOME SHOES

[77lks]

@munchegod i am agreed with you!!!

[aegisgfx]

All the other drummers, living or dead, are fighting for second place. And high, High above them all, is this dude.

[kirkwanglers32]

Buddy Rich,in my Opinion Best Drummer in the world.

Chris Slade Brilliant

[MrLino]

He was actually hitting the hi hat WHILE holding it!? Wht an amazing drummer. The way he hist the cymbals and the snare, just like he's caressing instead of damaging it.

[ISubZeroCinema]

fuck barker this guys the legend

[damangt]

this guy is like travis barker and dave grohl is like john bonham 

[vonjager]

damn. We miss you, Buddy Rich.

[1974obiwan]

As a drummer, i find drumsolos quite boring

[iapiaya]

Steve Smith..much better..

[XxbMcxX23]

@iapiaya ya ok. buddy blows him outta the water

[TheDoingYourMom1]

As a drummer, I find this very demotivational. But on the other hand, this helps me to continue pushing myself to harder levels, trying to reach guys like him. He's an inspiration for any drummer, and if someone disagree, he doesn't know shit about music.

[planbskaterpj]

this just goes to show you dont need 9 cymbals and a double bass kick 9 toms and a auto tune to rock the house down R.I.P buddy ri...... wait hero r remembered but legends never die. ROCK ON BUDDY RICH
