Movie Reviews of Buddy Rich - At the Top DVD
Movie Review: The greastest drummer ever on the planet earth!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just have to say it, quite simply and honestly.
There will never be another Buddy Rich!
I am a young guy that loves drumming.
I love neil peart from the group rush.
He is an amazing drummer, and I think is the top drummer today.
His idol and his favorite drummer in the world, was buddy rich.
He said it himself: Buddy Rich is awesome, simply amazing, and his playing style is just impossible to copy or play.
There will just never be anyone like him again.
You can argue all you want, and say what you want, because the truth is here. Buddy Rich was the greatest, and was in a league of his own.
His left hand was moving so fast, and it was doing something no other drummer could or ever try to do. I have never seen anything like that before! His left hand, had a complete mind of it's own!
His drum solo's were so fast, precise and impossible to do.
His one hand drum rolls are impossible and incredible.
No one will ever be able to play, or master the drums the way that buddy did. He was simply the greatest! No doubt about that!
He was remarkable, yet undeniably extremely talented.
He made this tape at age 55, when most drummers are already retred with playing. He was this way, from the age of 5 through his death at 87.
I like louie bellson too. He was the inventor of the double bass drum set up. Even though he started playing double bass drums, it was buddy rich playing with them with a big band set up, way back in the 1920's on one of has video performances. He did all the things drummers today are trying to do and invent. Playing double bass setups, and playing hanging on stage upside down. You name it, and he did it all already.
Best yet, he did it all very well. He did everything with style and great performance. Enough said about that! Take it from me and the many other professional drummers out there playing and watching groups and performers, Buddy Rich was, just the greatest drummer ever alive.
Summary of Buddy Rich - At the Top DVD
Recorded at the Top of the Plaza in Rochester, New York on February 6, 1973, and captures drum legend Buddy Rich in his absolute prime. Syndicated by PBS in that year, it was the first time thousands of drummers were exposed to Buddy in a full-length concert setting, and many drummers continue to name this program as a prime influence on their own playing. Not seen in its entirety since it was first broadcast, it remains one of the most sought-after shows ever recorded by Buddy. It includes definitive versions of Love for Sale, the odd time signature-laden Time Check, his famed Norwegian Wood, Basically Blues, and the astonishing closer West Side Story. Also features a rare bonus clip: an unbelievable unaccompanied drum solo, not seen since its broadcast in May of 1978! Special DVD Features: 3 rare bonus clips of Buddy, including his appearance as a mystery guest on What's My Line from 1974, a television performance on the Sid Mark Show, and a solo from one of his very last performances at Disneyland in 1984. DVD Running Time: 87 minutes.Similar DVD Movies
