Buddy Rich, of whom this uploader has up- and down-loaded a NUMBER of pieces, was undoubtedly TECHNICALLY the Greatest Drummer In The World - but Gene had PIZZAZZ!

@Rodel757 So happy to hear kids are finally hearing great music again.I sometimes cry because I think kids are brainwashed into believing today's performers are the best ever.Please turn your friends on to this sweet sound.Luv'ya.

Ruckweiler, I too discovered Gene by accident, or should I say Benny, my best friend at the time had a brother who played clarinet and had been conscripted into the British army ,he gave me an LP of Goodman at Carnigie hall, well I played that until it was worn out, then got it on CD, then got the full, uncut version found in Benny's attic, bv Benny himself, this is music, but how do you introduce people to this? I am gladdened to read reviews from young people who have played enjoyed this.

The one, the man who brought the drums from the insignificent banger at the back to the forefront of swing music, like Benny said, Gene was the greatest, and if Benny said so it was gospel.

Gene Krupa put life into the drums, had SOUL! Buddy had speed and technique, but didn't bring life to the drum kit. You need to SOUND GOOD when u r playing.

i just love how much fun these guys are having.

Been my #1 drum hero since the mid-'60s when I discovered him on some of my Mom's old 78s. Krupa always had something to say musically and that's why even the young ones today know who he was. Glad so many of the old films are available on this site.

@imonthebox Yep - it's "George White's Scandals" - there's a reference in the dialogue.

It's not a contest. Buddy Rich has speed and technique, but Krupa has more soul.

@TehGav AGREED! I have always decried those who try to compare the two. As a twenty-something (sadly, MANY years ago, now) I used to say Buddy was a TECHNICIAN - while Gene was an ANIMAL! (That was before the character in the Muppets, too). What I meant was that Gene had - like you say - SOUL.
Thus comparing them is like trying to compare Glenfiddick - with a '59 Caddy. (And don't ask me who's who, there!)
