- One of Buddy's tightest bands

Neil Peart, in his liner notes for the tribute "Burning for Buddy," quotes the influence of the man as thus: "genius is the fire that lights itself." I used this quote to describe Stanley Kubrick in my review of his DVD collection, and fittingly so, it accurately summarizes the talent of undoubtedly the greatest, most influential drummer of the 20th century. Being a percussionist myself for 28 years, it never ceases to amaze me the fluidity and effortless motions Buddy created with a simple, 4-piece kit, ... Read More
