Jazz drummers, famous solos.

[Styxx]

Found this website and thought some of you might be interested in hearing some of the famous drum solos. There is a battle solo between Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa you have to hear. For those of you that may not know these drummers it may be interesting to listen to the mp3. Other artist, Phil Collins, Chick Web, John Bonham, Ginger Baker and tons more. Check it out.

One note of interest - There is a lot of downloadable BIG BAND music to listen to hear!

Isn't that a great page!!

My favs;

Buddy Rich: Da Man, period.

Ian Paice: never got the respect he deserves. Check out the one handed roll.

Steve Smith: Best. Hi-hat. Solo. Ever.

Phil Collins: laying it down with Buddy's band. He should be slapped once for every day he quit being a real drummer so he could write pop crapola.

OUTSTANDING PAGE! I checked out a few of my fav's as well. I really love the Bill Stewart solo with Larry Goldings and Peter Bernstein. Lot's here to educate drummers and those who write for drums and those who wanna be drummers....etc...

Great site, Styxx. But ... on the downside these performances just show how hopeless I am with drums, even with a good tool like JABB. Bummer .. weekend ruined.

Hmm, the intent was to give people some stimulation as to how it all sounds? Sorry, didn't mean to blow your weekend. Hey, if it's any consolation to you I CANNOT program drum set in using keys on a controller! Drives me insane to no end! Rather, I use a Roland SPD20 and trigger in midi live! If need be to edit that's no problem. Maybe you could look into finding a friend who plays and could do the same for you? SPD8's are found cheap on ebay and work as well.
Anywho, I really doubt if your talent has been thwarted by this post in the least bit!
Just do it and let's hear! ;)

Definitely a cool site! We have many of these on vinyl with awesome album photos. We sat with Louie Bellson for about 30 mins at a Stephan Grapelli concert outside of Chicago. Amazing guy! We also spoke with Billy Cobham this summer about residing in Europe. He comes to perform in Oakland, CA when he visits his grandkids and we see him when we can. He has an interesting perspective on performing in the US. Dennis Chambers is coming to perform (with my Bass God - Victor Wooten) and should be a pretty good gig. Nice way to finish the year! Thanks for pointing out the link!
