I love the polite applause at the end. That 1940s, "Oh dear, that young man plays very nicely" type of clapping. Hysterical.

@Drumminman4U That last shot shows famed Danish tenor Lauritz Melchior applauding. Lauritz was an internationally-known opera star and M-G-M character actor, father of sci-fi director Ib Melchior.

@TheTomMunday

thanks for the info

[Dojocho]

he leveled out his snare as he got older...and his cymbal height lowered too i think

[Taikomaniac]

snare tilted like a pipe drummer in a marching band. Buddy could make a cardboard box sound great. Moeller at its best. Buddy copt some of Billy Gladstone on this one he would go down to Radio City to see the man and his snare. George Stone and scottish pipe band drummer Alex Duthart was also his favorites.

Buddy's favorite drummer all time was Chick Webb. 

[Mp5Drummer]

Snare angled enough for you Buddy? XD

[RoryVanucchi]
