Behinds Quote by Buddy Rich

“I think the drummer should sit back there and play…” quote by Buddy Rich — Download Open image

“I think the drummer should sit back there and play some drums, and never mind about the tunes. Just get up there and wail behind whoever is sitting up there playing the solo. And this is what is lacking, definitely lacking in music today.”
