In Reply to: RE: Spinning Buddy Rich this cold gloomy morning... posted by ghost of olddude55 on February 07, 2021 at 05:09:58
A former co-worker played in jazz/stage bands for a time before getting a real job.
He spent some time playing for/with Buddy Rich and toured with Buddy for a short time. According to my former co-worker, Buddy was the biggest asshole he ever met. Was extremely abusive to all the members of the band.
A genuine douche-bag and a despot.
Follow Ups:
There was that nasty streak underneath, but Johnny was such a nice guy, and BR knew the value of being in Johnny's good graces, so he stifled himself more or less.
Rich played for Tommy Dorsey and it was questionable who was worse.
The problem is not that there is evil in the world, the problem is that there is good. Because otherwise, who would care?
