No Doubt Buddy was one of the all time masters but....I think Billy Cobham is a better drummer. I know he was most likely influenced by drummers like Rich but he took drumming to a knew level.
Most creative drum solo ever. It was a great disservice that we had to wait for white boys to deliver to a white audience. Whitney Balliettt once wrote: "Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich were not showmen but show-offs."
@godnosnotrue I believe you are misinformed, I knew alot of those old time drummers and the racial thing was far from the cause. It was about music and equality, respect for each other. The media will always reflect the lowest intellectual level so as to sell what THEY sell. Which is NEVER the TRUTH. Besides spend time listening and overlook the skin color..
@godnosnotrue It just made you black boys sick that Buddy was the best of the best and could tear any drummer in the world, a new ass. All of that arm waving and stick antics, were of no use on record. As for showing off, dig one of Lionel Hamptons old films.
