@DYNODRUM Buddy Rich might have been the engine but Harry James was the steering wheel.

As much as I respect and adore Buddy's drumming art...he could never fill the drum chair in the Ellington orchestra superior to Woodyard or Greer.

@johnnyzing Great ,Thankyou ,good info;Are you still doin any Percussion, This was a time I, think when Buddy was preparing for His take -off, into His own Thing ,as you say.

@DYNODRUM A friend of mine played with Harry James and told me he let Buddy do whatever he wanted including come on the stage 'after' himself. James was a smart leader. I met him in 1975 at the Las Vegas Union Hall when it was strong and on Tropicana Avenue. Those were the fun Vegas days. I used to play percussion on all the Production Shows. John-Hans Melcher

@Fnarge He said he can't read drum music.

@DYNODRUM Harry was a genius, he new every single part of every tune, second alto, third bone, they could never trick him up, Buddy loved him, and Harry was absolutely the leader, BR was just doing his job the right way.

just an reaffirmation that he was and will always be the best. period. there isn't a drummer out there today who could even carry Buddy's sweat towel.

ahh the famed Rogers drum set. i still think Buddy sounded better on the swinging Slingerland Radio Kings.

Wow...Harry James is my idol. Great sound, I love the shmoltzy (sp) vibrato, everything. I hope to one day sound 1/2 as good as him. And I agree with Sherom - I mean, I'm only 17 years old, but the music today is pretty much all crap. I hope that jazz (preferably the big band sound) makes a comeback.
