Traps the Drum Wonder - A Tribute to the Music of Buddy Rich

Buddy Rich was renowned for his virtuoso technique, power, speed and explosive solos. In a career that began in Vaudeville when he was only eighteen months old and already known as Traps the Drum Wonder, Rich played with Artie Shaw, Tommy Dorsey and Charlie Parker, sang, tap danced and acted. He formed a big band in 1966 that sustained him for the rest of his life and inspired posthumous tributes including Burning for Buddy, the all-star album produced by Rush drummer Neil Peart and featuring drumming icons including Billy Cobham, Steve Gadd and Manu Katche. In Spring 2009, the SNJO tour their own tribute with classic Rich charts including West Side Story, Wack Wack, Big Mama Cass and Nutville, featuring the extraordinary Scottish drummer Alyn Cosker.
