He and I had a great conversation sitting there before the show. Nothing but another super memory. Thank-you Walter Straiton!!

In the summer of 1981, the Buddy Rich band was hired to play a dinner gig in Clinton, IN just a stone's throw from the public pool. The yard was well decorated and a fine dinner was served. It was a little humid and, yes, we have mosquitos. After 2 or 3 songs, Buddy Rich says into the microphone, "Where the fuck am I?" Well Buddy, you weren't in Kansas. A fine time was had by all but the legend of prickdom survived.

I was fortunate to attend one of these performances when they came to Los Angeles, and played at El Camino JC, with virtually the same line up as this video. I believe it was around 1978 or 9, with my best friend and I attending. Marcus, I learned later was already a force of nature in his own right, before joining BR. He earned standing ovations, one after another. The ride home was silent, mostly due to our jaws hanging near the ground for a while after the show, and not wanting to break the sanctity of the moment. Over thirty five years later, I still remember that concert. It is one of a handful of events I consider unforgettable. Marcus went on to lead the band, and was the obvious candidate to lead after Rich died. Sadly, he too is no longer with us. They live on in the memories of those souls their music touched.

This is my favourite big band version of this track. The whole album that this came from "Class of '78" is great. Buddy Rich may have been a so and so to work for, but his arrangements were always brilliant and pretty hard to play. Yes, there is always an abundance of drum solos, but it was his band. I once saw him do a 5 minute solo purely on snare and it was magic, so complex and interesting even for a non-drummer.

He wasn't a so and so...he was a nightmare pretty much. I did sound mixing [FOH and MON] for him in '78 when he came to Denver from Vegas. This particular band looks very familiar, BTW. They were great, but were in constant fear of the "wrath of Rich", just as I was! One night the house system failed!! due to fuse blowing in the breaker panel. I had to raise the monitor levels [on a different circuit] drastically to temporarily get House levels to be adequate, while we tracked the problem and fixed it. We did it all within the tune he was currently playing. It was assholes and elbows with flashlights clenched in teeth, for a while....The audience hardly new what had happened, but Buddy about had a heart attack. After the show we had, shall we say, more than a heated moment. But at the end of the day...he actually understood the randomness of the happening and we moved forward with the rest of the shows. But yeah! He does have a temper for sure.

This is my favorite cut as well. I love the way Buddy Rich plays the drums as a part of the whole and not just a time keeper. Buddy liked to assemble his bands with recent graduates of music schools; Berkley in Boston was one of his favorites. Steve Marcus was an old man by comparison with the 'youngsters' in this band. BTW, whenever Buddy was in the Boston area, he would stop in at Leo Carrillo's shop in Providence for a 'refresher' in drumming technique from the master. My brother was a student of Leo's for a few years and became a pretty terrific drummer.

no one looks happy they look like they've been enslaved by the drummer for year's with no hope of living anymore.

They could play anywhere they want - just like you, me,.. anybody... anybody... anybody (Blues Brothers 1980.) They loved it even though they made scale- plus about 50 per diem. sending 200 home a week isn't enough, but playing every night with Buddy Is Enough.

God I would hate being in the this band with passion, Rich is staring down the bones 90% of the time. Example of a perfectionist a little too worried about being perfect. Now the skill is another topic but c'mon, the audience in almost all places (ruling out judges) could care less and most likely not even hear imperfections. Buddy Rich may more strict than classical conductors...

izzz, You have to be more than good to be in that or any of Buddy's Bands & I seriously doubt you are. James Brown was as hard a task master towards his band & even fined them if they missed a note & as Buddy he's a legend. Benny Goodman was the same way. Still they knew just what was expected from them & they wanted to be in a band that great.

Performance seems a bit rushed to me. The original version by Weather Report is at 156 bpm. Whereas Buddy takes it at about 198 bpm (though it slows to a more comfortable 190 bpm for the sax solo).
