Buddy Rich – Birdland Vinyl (Translucent Red Edition)

Live album by jazz drum legend Buddy Rich “Birdland” as seen in Academy Award winning film Whiplash

 

Limited edition on Translucent Red Vinyl!

 

This rare production was recorded with Buddy’s permission by bandmate Alan Gauvin, who has also mixed and edited the project together. The Birdland album is seen in Whiplash in the hands of the young star Miles Teller, who plays an extraordinary drummer who idolizes Buddy Rich. Arguably the greatest jazz drummer of all time, Rich’s career spanned seven decades.

The band comes together with Buddy Rich on drums and lead. On Sax, Alan Gauvin (Alto/Soprano/Flute) Bill Blount & Frank Basile (Alto) Steve Marcus (Tenor/Soprano), Bobby Mintzer (Tenor/Flute) and Turk Mauro (Baritone). Trombones are Rick Stepton, Dale Kirkland and David Boyle. On Trumpets we can hear Dave Stahl, Dean Pratt, Ross Konikoff, Jon Marshal & Waymon Reed. Responsible for the Rhythm are Barry Keiner on Piano and Tom Warrington & Jon Burr on Bass.

He played with such greats as Tommy Dorsey, Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Ventura, Louis Armstrong and Gene Krupa, and was a favourite on several television talk shows including the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, the Mike Douglas Show, the Dick Cavett Show and the Merv Griffin Show. Rich also played for Presidents Roosevelt, Kennedy and Reagan as well as the Queen of England. He was a featured soloist with Boston Pops and London Philharmonic and was the recipient of a Grammy Presidents Merit Award.
