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.

Gearbox is a British independent label founded in 2009 by Darrel Sheinman. Based in London and Tokyo, Gearbox releases new music by contemporary artists as well as previously-unreleased archival recordings. They are well known for their jazz releases, including the "BBC Jazz For Moderns" series taken from jazz programmes on the BBC. The label also has a series called Japanese Editions featuring legendary performances at Ronnie Scott's jazz club in London.

In addition to their record releases, Gearbox operates a mastering studio located at Tileyard Studios in King's Cross, London. Equipped with vintage analog equipment, including a 1967 Haeco Scully lathe with Westrex amplifiers, they offer high-quality lacquer cutting and mastering services. The studio also provides direct-to-disc or tape recording using the adjacent recording studio.

For its own releases, Gearbox Records collaborates with Optimal Media GmbH. Known engineers associated with the label include Darrel Sheinman (Daz), Caspar Sutton-Jones (caspar@gearbox), Cicely Balston (2013-2016), Carla Iannace (since 2021 - carla@gearbox), and Kristina Rhodes (2021-2023). The studio is credited on releases as Gearbox Records Studio or Gearbox Recording.

Recorded over 2 nights, 19th and 20th November 1986, at Ronnie Scott’s in London, UK, this is the final ever recording of the legendary, influential drummer, whose impact across Rock, Funk and Soul, as well as Jazz, is unrivalled to this day. This is a vitally important release, it being the final ever recording of Rich, considered at the time to be the best drummer in the World, and as can be heard throughout was still very much at the top of his game. Also, having remained unreleased for over 30 years, and following a labour of love from Rich's own family, it can now finally be heard by the public.The Collector's Editions contain over 30 minutes of extra material, across triple vinyl as a lavishly presented gatefold set, and a double disc CD in replica LP-style gatefold packaging.
