About this product

Product Information

(Book). Now back in print, this bestseller by Mel Torme is a brilliant biography of his friend of forty years, Buddy Rich, who was one of the most famous drummers of the Swing Era, having starred in the Artie Shaw and Tommy Dorsey bands. His career started when he was two years old in his parents' Vaudeville act, and by the time he was four he was the highest paid child performer in the world. The Buddy Rich story is a fascinating one, as much for what it says about the world of American music and entertainment as for the remarkable life it portrays. Drawing from interviews and many personal reminiscences, Torme packs this biography with vivid, often funny, anecdotes. His personal touch and his in-depth knowledge of jazz make for a moving, insightful, and often hilarious biography. 233 pages, 6-1/2 x 9-1/2 Softcover

  • traps the drum wonder

    I have been a Rich fan since I started play"n drums in 1967. I try to under stand what goes on in a man"s mind when he plays and does a drum solo. I found , that if you put your self in his shoes, you can think....where he is coming from, and that might make it a "LITTLE" better to do his work. All you need to know is in this book to give you a better under standing of BUDDY"s life. Give it a shot, you will love the book
