Finally!!! After all these years. I first saw this the night after it originally aired. I had worked that night and set my "new" vhs tape machine to record it. The tape is long gone now, and I'll I've had of this was a memory until now. I've been hoping someone would have a copy of it and post it, so glad it's here now. Thanks for posting it, after 41 years I can see it again.
Thank you for posting all these Carson appearances. It's great to hear and see them again!
The best Tonight Show of all time.
Really miss those days..
Brother I don't know where you sourced them, because some are from years where commercial video tape recorders weren't available, but man am I glad you are sharing them here. Buddy wasn't the old stick in the mud "Big Band Jazz only!" that he sometimes was made out to be...the dude loved to experiment and improvise. This trio performance is the coolest video I've seen so far from the Carson performances. I was born in '75 and remember just 2 performances I saw live on TV in the mid 80's. My Dad was a huge music lover and encouraged me in every way possible when I started playing snare drum in the 6th grade concert band. He knew jazz and the drummers who frequented Carson's show so he would let me stay up late and watch. These and the Louie Bellson clips I've also seen on YT have really hit me in the feels...this stuff is extraordinary, especially in 2019's musical landscape...
Fabulous performance! Wayne was a pure monster on the bass, and of course BR could play any genre of music at a level so beyond us mere mortals! Thanks for posting Drumuitar!!
Wow! I thought I had seen ALL of Buddy Rich's videos...NOT! That was some nasty psychedelic playing with the rhythm section!! Loved it!! Thank you!
What incredible chemistry ...you could tell they loved each other ...both masters of their fields. Thanks for another great upload 🤘
A very funky Buddy (7:45) , love it! He was definitely inspired by drummers of that time. And at the end he made sure not to be out-staged by Wayne. lol
This made me smile..thank you.
Thank you. Never heard this clip before. Great bass player. Unusual BR approach. Not your typical Carson appearance.
me either. would have loved to hear him with mile or with zawinul or mclaughlin
dherz108 Buddy Rich was a great talent and undeniably an arrogant POS. At least Tony B is still around. Glad Buddy got his. It was all about Buddy.......
@@Newzchspy ; Don't say bad things, man.
There's good and bad in everybody, he was nice to me and a lot of other people.
Johnnyc drums I'm not the only one who said it. His own band couldn't stand him.
@@Newzchspy trumpeter Bobby Shew was with Buddy for 18 months.
He was fired 26 times
Wow, this is great to see and hear. MR. Tony Bennett & Buddy. Wow.
Drumuitar,
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You have given us gifts we never thought we would see again. All of these appearences I hope will show the world what Buddy truly was. 100% amazing! Happy Holidays to you and all Buddy fans!
Dam CD’s yt name was drumuitar???
When from a guitar to a cripple
I remember this as one of the few Tonight Shows with Buddy that I didn't see. I was gigging myself when this was aired. Not sure why he chose to do this stuff in 1980, cause it sounded more appropriate in '75.
Excellent gem. Love Buddy and Wayne Pedziwater.
Buddy Rich playing in trio, all 3 did a wonderful job.
This is incredible. It’s like some free loose rock stuff. Amazing playing . Some people have got no idea where Buddy & these amazing players went .
Seven years to the day before Buddy’s passing! He was amazing to the end.
素晴らしいパフォーマンスだ！
アップありがとうございます！
So Awesome.. I miss both of them as its not easy to find this level of talent of fusion/jazz originality on any talk show today. Carson truly embraced the talented of all forms and was the perfect host to feature Buddy on many many occasions.
Thanks for that post sharing !
Tony is and will always be a legend. Buddy man what can you say? Whether he is on Shaugnessys drums or anyones drums??? Buddy Rich. Buddy makes all drum sounds great. thanks for posting this.
Those are Ed's drums.
definitely a 22 bass and very jazzy funky for Buddy, great to see this--the man was cool in any genre.
Excellent.
Totally different from his repertoire
First time i heard Buddy play hi hats on all 8ths with left foot
Wayne RiP
Me too! Very unusual style for him
Yes it is more of fusion funk feel, kind of like his later stuff like EG or Big Mac.
this was UNBELIEVABLE!
A pleasant surprise hearing Mr. Rich getting funky/fusion-y. Abercrombie or Mclaughlin would have fit right in here.
Holy Crap this is great!!
Saw Tony two months later in Atlantic City.
Wayne Pedzwater was amazing.
Incredible talent who left us too soon. And of course playing a slightly different vibe, excelling as always.
Jaco influence
This is my favorite Buddy Rich Tonight Show performance.
BR seemed to regard Wayne Pedzwater as kind of an equal. That is really REALLY unusual. I've seen this in other clips of them together. BR looks like he has someone else to converse with in that ultra chops, ultra crisp rarely spoken language. Like a prodigy who has found somebody else he can interact/play with in an undiluted way.
Mr. Humble ! Indeed !
Johnny your killing me !
Now that was cool!!...& Not what I was expecting AT ALL!!!
What's the name the last song buddy playing with wayne ? That's a killer tune
Remark about Glen Campbell cheap shot
Glen was a top flight session player. Played on Sinatra's stuff
You are correct but a cheap shot...by the world's greatest drummer.
Campbell was beyond a session player...he was a songwriter and in my book, that qualifies him as the Total Musician.
I know this post I'm replying to is a year old but...look, Buddy wasn't cheap shotting Campbell and his abilities as a player...he was specifically talking about the SONG "Rhinestone Cowboy" which was of course a Campbell song. The song is repetitious and sappy country/pop. Not Campbell's best work in any way. It's an annoying, plain, uninspired, junk piece of music and that's what Buddy AND Carson to, by the way.....were referring to as was said in the video.
Sinatra would not have recorded Rhinestone Cowboy.
Check out the comment below by Philosopher 007. He’s absolutely correct. Buddy was specifically referring to the song not the artist.
I didn't know Buddy grooved with an organ trio. It's definitely a Buddy sound, he doesn't change his style too much but it fits the format.
It's a Fender Rhodes electric piano, not an organ.
Anyone know what the tune buddy played with the trio was called?
One of the best Buddy Rich performances with the trio.
Buddy saw fit to play the 2nd floor tom more than 1 or 2 strokes.
😎👍🥁Outstanding!
Did BR release any music as a trio?
I know time to time he would perform
as a trio or quartet @his club.
His septet was on “Very Live at Buddy’s Place.” Aside from that, there are several trio & quartet recordings from the late 40s, 50s, early 60s - Lester Young Trio on Mercury/Verve, Lester Young & Buddy Rich Trio on Norgran, Records, Flip Phillips-Buddy Rich Trio on Clef, Buddy Rich in Miami on Verve has a quartet & quintet. Of course there’s also the incredible sextet stuff on “Playtime” with Mike Mainieri on vibes. It was rereleased a few years ago on 2 CDs on Fresh Sound records.
Also with Art Tatum & Lionel Hampton
Billie's bounce off the Buddys Place record is also a trio piece with Kenny Baron and a young Anthony Jackson
Serious Weather Report influence going on at the 8:00 number.
Who was the piano player?
anyone know if that's Dave Carpenter on bass?
With The Tonight Show Band, on the number with Tony Bennett, I believe the late and very great Dave Carpenter, yes.
Wayne was the only bassist to stand up with Buddy !
buddyandian Respect
Tom Warrington was great too.
@@johnsandbo1 yes and the bassist w Cunliffe who died.
TW now in New Zealand playing w Joe Labarbera
Update 10-20 Dave Carpenter
Ed's toms always sounded like crap. 8:07 Buddy uses the stick shot a lot here..
Buddy-- a fish out of water on Shauhnessey's big double kit---and still shredding like nobody! And the great Pete Christlieb onboard too! Then starting at 7:47 we step straight into the Twilight Zone to see Buddy laying it down with a stone FUNK FUSION trio ala Weather Report!
So the sax section was Christlieb, Watts, Tabakin, and who else?
@@arame29 Don Ainsworth, Tommy Newsom, Peter Christlieb & Ernie Watts. That's 4 of the 5 saxophone players.
@@williamdunphy352 thank you
buddy match grip?
Eddie Rivera Buddy played matched grip very frequently
drumuitar: I was surprised to see him use match grip cause he said that he didn't like it.
Eddie Rivera yeah, he said it but didn’t actually practice what he preached😬
Check out "Hawaiian War Chant"
Check out a concert he did in Montreal in 82 or 83, he use it a lot.
Only for the floor toms, like timbals.
First time I hear BR in a jazzrock style. Reminded me of some Mahavishnu sounds. Another proof that BR had no limits. The best of all times!
Tenor sax solo w Tony?
Pete Christlieb, long time member of the TS band.
@@TeresaR966 thank you
I saw his name on various studio dates also
Why did Doc sit this one out?
Buddy playing on Ed Shaughnessy’s drums - the toms sound like cardboard.
This trio is one of my absolute favorite Buddy Rich performances.
Snare sounds terrible as well.
@george nolte That was Buddy's set. White Marine Pearl, Ludwigs which he was endorsing at the time and even his own BR logo on the front head and tuned how he always tuned them. Of course all the Zildjians that were most likely hand picked from the factory. Not a rented kit at all.
@george nolte Most drummers (myself included ) have multiple sets. I actually have 17 kits but realize that is over kill for sure. Buddy could have had as many sets as he wanted from which ever company he was endorsing at the time just like most drummers with such name recognition but Rich was odd in many ways for sure so I don't doubt that he only had one kit at any given time. Very strange indeed. I've seen him on the Tonight Show as well as many other shows like Mike Douglas, etc....where it was obviously not his kit; sometimes not even the same company. This set in this video then is an exact copy of what he was playing at the time.
@george nolte Nah you said they were a rented set; not one from his collection but who cares; they were drums and he played them. He always preferred the Slingerland Radio Kings. He tried Rogers, Fibes and Ludwig but always went back to Slingerland with the one exception being the Fibes snare drum which he used even when he endorsed Slingerland. The rest of the kit were all Slingerland and using that Fibes drum caused him to have a falling out with Slingerland at the time and thus the switch over to Ludwig right after that happened only to finally go back to Slingerland for the rest of his career before he passed away. There is a guy that did a little video displaying a lot of the Rich snare drums throughout the years, He even used Trixon at one point. I watched it not too long ago. If I see it I will share the link.
7:48
Ed Shaughnessy’s drum kit toms sound like cardboard boxes.
You're being kind
As a drummer, I'm simply dumbfounded how Buddy could do a spot live playing with such CHEAP sounding cymbals! 8:00
What is that? Early Sabians?!?!
This ARE NOT the usual set he played . And Ludwig did pay a 100 k for his endorsement. It was slingerland who was upset at the fibes snare . Not Ludwig. 1980 was first year for Ludwig. B did not like Ludwig family. Figure it out .
I don’t know who you’re arguing with but he’s obviously playing Ed Shaughnessy’s drums. And his last endorsement period with Ludwig actually started in late 1977, not 1980.
Howard Stern on bass guitar.
These Ludwigs didn’t have the warmth of Slingerland.
I never liked his sound when he was with Ludwig the last time. They usually sounded dead.
@@thecrippledrummer the ludwigs did sound so good at times on the tonight show because whoever was the drum tech.. did not know how to tune them. listen to buddy's ludwigs on the montreux 1982 live dvd. they sound great
Tony Bennett really does get better with age but stop dying your hair. Older men with jet black hair just looks goofy.
He did stop
But now he`s 94
Swing era big band drummer trying to play modern style.
Here's what's commonly referred to as "The Bus Tapes" of Buddy Rich giving his band a "pep talk." Caution: Lots of cursing. czcams.com/video/Yy5JPCLx7WI/video.html
All of Buddy's solos are identical. He clearly practiced 1 solo and did it over and over
I was on Buddy's band. You are full of crap.
Buddy is in a foreign territory here, trying to keep up with the kids. i give him some points for trying something different but his true thing is a real swinging Jazz.
