It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Rich had a severely exaggerated opinion of his abilities

He also had an exaggerated opinion of the quality of his big bands - they
simply practiced the "higher, faster, louder" method of play.

If you want to watch an interesting video, look up the drum battle between
Rich and Ed Shaughnessy that played out on the tonight show a few decades
back. Suffice to say, Rich did not "win".

And for very interesting recording, listen to the Tatum/Rich/Hampton
recording that Norman Granz made, in the Tatum group recordings. You can
feel the egos and testosterone flow thru the music.

Lack of skill dictates economy of style. - Joey Ramone
