Buddy Rich was an American jazz drummer and band leader. Born on September 30, 1917 in Brooklyn, New York, he became known for his exceptional drumming skills and dynamic performances. Throughout his career, Buddy Rich collaborated with renowned artists such as Maynard Ferguson, Dizzy Gillespie, and Gene Krupa. His influential style and virtuosity made him one of the most respected drummers in the jazz genre.
Tragically, Buddy Rich passed away on April 2, 1987 in Los Angeles, California due to heart failure following surgery for a malignant brain tumor. Despite his untimely death at the age of 69, his legacy lives on through his recordings and contributions to jazz music.
Considered a true icon in the world of jazz, Buddy Rich's impact can still be felt today. His talent continues to inspire aspiring musicians around the globe who strive to emulate his extraordinary skill and passion for music.

Reissues

When Buddy Rich and his Killer Force Band were at their peak, Buddy began to feature a trio segment, often twice a night. Buddy would exclusively use brushes rather than sticks, even in his drum solos. Young prodigy pianist Barry Kiener, who soon sadly died of an accidental overdose at the age of 30 (on Buddy's tour bus), was the magnificent lead instrument. Virtuoso bassist Jon Burr completed the trio on most of the songs. These never-before released recordings are a true collector’s item.
