  • These guys are on fire.

    I loved it when Buddy called up "Time Check" at this brighter tempo.

  • You think speed metal is fast, that is a fast tempo boys and girls.

  • @AJazzGuy1 YOU WERE THERE !! In detail, what do you remember ? What sticks out ? I met Buddy face to face about this same time after a show and he was SO SHORT and those hands were so POWERFUL looking, like they could kill you in a second. The guy STILL brings me to TEARS !! 12.17.11

  • If this doesn't give you CHILLS nothing will. Buddy's left hand GOES NUTS !! I always thought he played better when he did Jerry's telethons. INSPIRATION !! Call in those pledges !!

  • no question in my mind that this stuff is amazing, but.. why do you jazz folks always compare your stuff to metal? ...lol

  • One of the greatest moments of my life, being in this studio that day in 1981 for the telethon and having the opportunity to meet Buddy and the band backstage after they played my favorite big band tune at the time. WOW! What an inspiration for me to go on to a career in music. Thank you Jerry, thank you Buddy and thank you band!

  • Fire!!! Burning fire!! God damn!!! I miss you Buddy!!

  • Clearly YouTube is the place for people to argue and express there opinions of each other.

  • I think I just got whiplash listening to this :) That tempo is simply inhuman!

  • OH MY GOD.

  • @kingorthy Right on!!! I would love to see/hear the "great" Travis Barker" pull this one off...then again...NO...he wouldn't have a clue. Buddy was the master...pure and simple!

  • They certainly are on fire! What a band! Steve Marcus playing great time on his solo, Buddy is just monstrous, and my Buddy and road roommate Pete Beltran on Bass Trombone
