Buddy Rich

“unbelievable speed and control!!!”

“Simply the benchmark that all others are measured against!”

“Buddy Rich is the greatest ever and how can he be this low,beats me”

“Buddy is by far better than any of these drummers. Travis Barker 5? Really? Just because he can play an average snare solo doesn't mean he can sum up to the career of a man who has been playing the drums his whole life without lessons. Let's start off by saying he has more technique, style, and flair than any of these drummers. Sure he didn't have an enormous drum kit like Neil Peart, but Buddy could make it sound like a whole coliseum of drum kits. Buddy not only played with technique but he also play with speed, which almost all the drummers above him on this list couldn't do. Buddy was also a genius, being able to invent technical beats on the fly. I mean come on, even Neil Peart said it himself that Buddy is the best. I think that's nuff' said.”

“Best jazz drummer in the history of the world. Amazing improv skills.”

“He is the best drummer ever.
I cant belive he isnt 1st in your list.”

“Back in the late 60's / eearly-mid 70's when PLAYBOY mag. had those best musician polls, Buddy Rich was always # 1.”

“YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED Buddy is one of thee best drummers ever. Definitely should be top 5.”

“A drummer's drummer.”

“He should be in the top 5. His speed is unheard of.”

“28! He is top 5!”

“you've got to be kidding me if buddy isn't in the top that's ridiculous, I have to say whoever made this is a retard, he started making drumming look cool, he was BY FAR the best drummer that ever lived, any modern drummer with half a brain will tell you that, no one will ever be as good/revolutionary as him

R. I. P. Buddy Rich”

“dude buddy rich should be in the top, he had more skill in one foot than some of those drummers had in their whole career”

“Buddy Rich is without a doubt the most technically gifted and talented drummers to ever grace this earth. RIP Buddy.”
