Cool thanks. I will check it out in a few.

I think maybe I like the Buddy Miles version better. But this is for you @Aetas
-
I think this is the OG version..
-
I looked it up and Neil Young's version is the original. My mistake. …used to white guys ripping off old black musicians, I guess.

Something a little different for this thread. It used to be a very common thing for drummers to battle. This one between Ed Shaughnesey and Buddy Rich is one of my favorites,as they were both hitting on all cylinders. At one point Ed looks like he thinks he’s winning at which point Buddy shifts into another gear doing cross sticking and one handed rolls. Enjoy!

Really enjoyed that @Jett129 thanks for sharing…
Was reminded last night of how much I like Japanese noisy punks Otoboke Beaver when I found out they have a new album coming out soon...
They are playing a few shows in the UK with label mates Say Sue Me out of South Korea who play some super chilled out surf rock...
Also digging on Jessie Ware's new dreamy single this morning...
and the new Our Native Doughters album. Really stunning and important folk/americana...

I once got a speeding ticket in Oklahoma listening to this song after work. I was doing 84 in a 45 on a back country road. The cop was chasing me for several miles and I didn't realize he was chasing me until he pulled up along side me. He was going to take me to jail. But I explained that I didn't realize I was even speeding because I was singing along to the song. He had a gun drawn on me and everything. The result was a $340 fine. The cop was laughing and smiling by the time out interaction was over.

oh it's a good week for new music! @Max Power check this out…
a different vibe - Phoebe Bridgers and Conor Oberst - it's like it's 1991 again!
and now it's 1986...retro vibes...this is just TOO good. Hip Hop.

Buddy Rich was ridiculous. Completely self-taught and was a child prodigy. I got to see him play a shopping mall in my home town and it was unforgettable.
http://drummerworld.com/ has a lot of excellent drumming clips. Tons of Buddy Rich.
And here is a famous collaboration between Vinnie Colaiuta, Steve Gadd, and Dave Weckl.

Saw Buddy many times when I was growing up.At 3 he was called the Prince of the Traps. One of my favorite clips was when he was on the Jerry Lewis show. It’s pretty funny. Also liked when he battled Animal on Sesame St. He was a notorious prick,hence the famous Buddy’s dead joke. The Buddy Rich bus tape on YouTube will blow your mind. Big fan of the Drummersworld video archive,and will check out the ones you recommended. Thanks.

@Stuart.T That new Ossuarium album rips as does the Better Oblivion Community Center. I also had no idea Aldous Harding had a new album coming out. That single is great and I can't wait to hear the rest of it.
In pop news, Carly Rae Jepsen has been tearing it up lately and her two newest tracks are super great…
Mal Blum's newest single has also been in almost constant rotation since I heard it a few days ago. They are playing with Lucy Dacus near me next week and I can't wait...

@mclaincausey Watched the Buddy Rich drum tribute with Gadd,Weckl,and Colaiuta. Can’t believe I’ve never seen that. Just phenomenal. Thank you! On another note Buddy Rich was trained by,the now legendary,Henry Adler. He taught Buddy how to read music,and helped him to write his first book which for me ,is to this day,the drumming Bible. When I was a kid it was a big deal to get Henry Adler agree to teach you. He got $30 for a half hour lesson,which seemed astronomical back then.
