  • Haha wicked awesome flute solo. Kind of random though :)

  • @Matt123ttam

    That's called playing "outside the box". In jazz you can get away with it and some folks view it as true "art". I tend to agree with you, though, I would much rather hear the melody line or, at least, a counter melody line.

  • wooooow, that flute solo its so crazyyyyyyy!!!!!!!

  • For those of you who 'bag' on this song, and the flute soloist, you are not sure of what you speak of.

    Buddy Rich and his Band were known in the 70's as an 'Attack Band'..........hard driving and tons of energy that went non-stop.

    One of Buddy's heroes was the impeccable Count Basie.

    This song is a tribute to the Bluesy Count Basie Band and is therefore bluesy and slow with rhythm thrown in.

    How often do you get to see a flute solo that has rhythm and blues mixed in?

    A change of pace.

  • sorry but that trombone solo was horrible

  • The Music Educator's National Conference (MENC) has a list of National Standards identifying what every student should be able to do in the arts.

    Number 7 of the Music Standards: "Evaluating music and music performances."

  • Much of Buddys work has multiple time signatures, keys, driving shout sections, and of course his amazing solos. This chart shows another side of Buddy that of an amazing comping musician. The chart flows with the energy of a slow moving freight train while allowing much interplay between the soloists and the band. Buddy provided a powerful yet subdued drive at a very soft dynamic range (almost felt more than heard), while adding color and excitement to the soloist. A true master.
