Drummers? Heck any musician/artist. He was great. Thanks for reminding me that he still lives on the tube.ude:

I went to one of his orchestra shows in the 1970's in a very small town in Montana. Tim Lander was playing bass at this show. The two of them were really something to hear together. Awesome!

Holy friggin cow. My dad was a drummer and my older brother too, and so Buddy Rich was a hero in our house. But I forgot how just good he was.

Man that Tonight Show clip was priceless.
