Buddy’s parents were performers in vaudeville and they traveled all over the country. Buddy liked to put people on, saying that he never practiced or had a lesson. The truth was, Buddy got his lessons from the greatest percussionists of the day and he practiced his butt off.
I highly recommend this book for drummers of ages and all musical styles.
Paperback or Hardcover – Written by Buddy Rich’s friend and fellow musical genius: Mel Torme.
