>>672617153
nope, didn't do drum solos either and wasn't a traditional timekeeper either, almost played the drums like a lead instrument much the same way entwistle played the bass...probably the least technical of all the drummers considered elite but finding a guy that can emulate his playing isn't easy, he had his own style
Scojo
>>672617895
You have to consider the fact that he was an innovator. He may not have even been the "best" of his time, but he had a signature style.
Comparing Buddy Rich to to Art Blakey, Max Roach, and many other be-bop drummers is apples and oranges. And if you're comoaring Rich to contemporary technicians such as >>672616458
, then you're just being a pretentious faggot.

i saw neil get trompled by jazz drummers in 1991. Buddy rich memorial concert
>>672615936
this is the objective correct answer.
OP has a good point, but I think Carter Beuford better.
>>672620107
Even Neil admits he still isn't a great jazz drummer...he worked with Freddie Gruber before he passed away to improve his playing after that tribute concert. Freddie even got him to change the way he held the sticks

Truly an epic joke, but in Ringo's defense he really did have a huge impact on drumming.
He may not have been flashy with fills all over the place but he basically single handed invented the backbeat.
The Beatles were the first band to perform in a stadium and in order to hear himself drumming, Ringo had to basically invent a new style of drumming involving a lot more bass drum action and emphasis on the 2 and 4 beat instead of the 1 and 3.
He's a lot more innovative than people give him credit for.

>>672631639
oh damn, not for much longer I bet. Must've been a hell of a show
>>672632097
Dude, the back beat goes back thousands of years. That's an african thing. You can trace it back through jazz, blues, and into tribal music in rhythms like the bembe. Don't be ignorant. Ringo fucking star did not invent playing on 2 and 4
>>672631914

This guy is the only non-normie in the thread. REEEEEEEE
Chris Dave is based
>>672617541
I would say krupa and many others have more syncopation than rich. Rich usually puts blazing speed in front of rhythm.
Krupa didn't have blazing speed so thats why they're different.
I prefer krupa now because having better rhythm is more important than playing fast.

Mike Mangina is like a typical tasteless douche who works at guitar center.

>>672632527
I listen to African music regularly and it doesn't sound anything like Ringo's drumming.
There's no reason to defend black people's contributions to music. They invented a lot.
But none of them performed in stadiums in 1965 with the biggest band in the world and had to learn a new style on the spot.
