5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent insights into maybe the best drummer ever
By J. M. Jacobs VINE VOICE on December 26, 2007

Wow! This 2-disc set will grab you and won't let you go. I received mine on a Saturday and I had some errands to run. The mailman came just as I was leaving, so I cranked open the box and there it was... laying there... like a bomb waiting to go off. I thought to myself, "Well, I'll just put it in and sample it a bit before I go."

Almost 3 hours later, I looked at the clock and went "Holy criminy! I gotta get goin'!"

I'm not a drummer, but I've always been a fan of Buddy Rich from watching him on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Neil Peart does just an excellent job of narrating the approach to the project and the contributions of all the great drummers you will see and hear on these discs. It is an insight into how the drummer can drive the band. As the producer of this project (along with Buddy's daughter), Peart has dictated camera angles and mic placements to show off the drummer's technique and strong points, his equipment, and his style of attack in creating his signature sound. I must admit I was sort of stunned that first time through. These two DVD's easily comprise one of the richest musical experiences I've ever had and there have been many.

Buddy Rich's Big Band really puts the punch and steam into the melody behind these dynamite beats as laid down by the boys on the sticks. The beautiful thing happening here is that each drummer gets to interpret one of Buddy's songs (or one of their own choosing) and Buddy's playing using their own technique. They bring their own personality and style as part of their contribution to the project. The courtesy and respect that each drummer and the band exchange between themselves is a joy to witness.

Basically it breaks down into 4 segments - 2 segments on each disc.Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsDamn Good DVD
By Aaron Austin on May 9, 2007

If the music itself wasn't enough to make you wet your bed, then watching the performances will. Neil Peart has done a wonderful thing by bringing in the best names in modern drumming to celebrate one of the most renowned drummers in history, Buddy Rich. I've had the CD for well over 10 years and now I have a chance to watch the performances and get artist feedback on the song choice, views on the magnitude of Buddy Rich, PLUS a very down-to-earth commentary by Rush's legendary drummer, Neil Peart.

A wonderful addition to any musicphile's collection.

5.0 out of 5 starsBurning For Buddy
By Cmor on January 1, 2008

How do you begin to describe the GREAT BUDDY RICH? What drummer hasn't been affected by Mr. Rich's thunderous snare drum roll. Neil Peart's and Cathy Rich's efforts in getting the great drummer's on the DVD in nothing but awarding!!! It's nice seeing "rock" drummers come to express their awe for one of the Jazz Greats!
Mr. Dave Weckl's Mercy, Mercy Mercy was funky. Mr. Omar Hakim was great as usual. And the others keep me up at night reviewing the DVD over and over. It's refreshing to see the combination of veteran drummers like Joe Morello and newer drummers like Marvin "Smitty" Smith and Manu Katche. A must have for all drummers.

5.0 out of 5 starsAmazing. Period.
By Luiz on March 8, 2011

This DVD is an amazing experience, both to the artists who participated and the viewers. It's an exemple on how to preserve the memories and culture, paying a tribute to the great artists. I would love if we have something like this in Brazil, regarding the former musicians who helped to consolidate the Brazilian music.
And as I'm talking about Brazi, I could say Buddy Rich is the "Pelé" of drums. Neil Peart, Joe Morello, Bill Bruford, Omar Hakim, Kenny Aronoff and a lot of the most talented drummers made a unforgetable work to honor this genius. Every drummer must watch this DVD, to see where we came from and where we're going.

I have the Video tape of this, not the DVD. DVD more convenient better resolution etc. The playing is amazing by all these rock guys. Neil Peart is my favorite drummer as Rush is my favorite band so I may be biased. He and Cathy Rich did a great job producing this. It was Neils idea and Cathy loved the idea. Recorded over a two week period in NYC with guest drummers and the awesome Buddy Rich band. A great video for drummers and /or lovers of classic Big Band music.
