DVD Reviews of Buddy Rich: Up Close
DVD Review: Up close, oh yeah, and every note Buddy plays is clearly audible!
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the most amazing things about Buddy's drumming was what he would do, often subtly, in support of the band and the tune. And on the back cover of this DVD it rightfully says: "Buddy's playing is unique, he plays not just with his hands and feet, but with every fiber of his being." I couldn't agree more. I was very glad when "Live in '78" was released on DVD because much of this masterful technique was visible and audible. With "Buddy Rich Up Close" from 1982, this aspect of his playing is even more discernable, because we the viewer are able to select from the menu the "Buddy Hot Audio Mix," in which every single note Buddy plays can clearly be heard, and seen, while the audio of the band is in the background. And, we are treated to no less than 5 solos by Buddy on this DVD: Bugle Call Rag, Greensleeves, Dancing Men, and 2 solos on West Side Story! My personal favorite segment: Buddy's first solo on West Side Story, very relaxed and groovin' and those amazing left hand grace notes he uses at the end of this solo to signal the band back in, and continues using to drive and support the song. Incredible. To sum up, I agree with the reviewer who said: "The quality is state of the art and Buddy is in top form. Nothing out there gives the focus on BR like this. A must have for BR fans."
Oh how I wish we had quality footage of Buddy like this from the 1960's!!
Description of Buddy Rich: Up Close
In 1982, Buddy Rich filmed three shows over three days at the Statler Hotel in New York. They were never aired, but this masterpiece footage is in pristine condition and will soon be released on Drum Channel as The Buddy Rich Show.Which brings us to BuddyJazz Music CDs
