Wow Mr. Pite you amaze me, your insistance that Gene's drum style was simple is not born out by your stiff, unswinging and hopeless efforts, shame on you Mr. Pite, that was simply dreadfull.
@dretety The thing with GK is that he made it LOOK simple, but it wasn't. He just had that undefinable gift - take a look at what he does on a matchbox in an old Barbara Stanyck film called "Ball of Fire" (1941)
I remember you mentioning this on Jazz Legends, looks like it was a fantastic performance. You had a great GK sound and look going, a fine centenary tribute it was.
A very fair impression of Roy Eldridge - pity they faded out "Let Me Off Uptown", though Rockin' Chair is almost as good

Holy Smoke ! What poop !! Had anyone attempted to tune up! That drummer is about average, but not the chops for Krupas drumming.
A real stinker...............................
