I remember a coworker in 1994 bringing in a box of CD's one night that he got thru a friend who worked for WEA. He let us all peruse thru the box and picked out what we liked. "Burning for Buddy Vol 1" was in the box and having heard about this project, I snatched it up. This was my first exposure to big band jazz at age 24. I couldn't get enough of the disc and I hoped that someday, somewhere there would be a concert with Neil and the BRBB. And then I find this video 29 years later.......❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Neal Peart's Wikipedia says he had prepared for this, but with a different arrangement--and Neal was therefore unhappy with his performance, so he later did some Buddy Rich tribute albums to apologize. That being said, I am still pretty awed by his performance.
This is a great example of a rock drummer playing Jazz: very little sense of intuition/ feel, barely can swing any notes, and instead of “pushing the band” he is “dragging the band”, and can’t “comp”. That’s why Neal Peart is in such a lower class than other great drummers, especially those who can actually play Jazz.
For all the ignorant dip Sh*ts who think they can do any better,I challenge you to cover a Rush tune and see how you do. This is a beautiful performance by a great musician who is daring and humble enough to play a style of music he never played professionally. R..I.P Mr Peart!
Jesus this is sad, let's be honest people within 2 seconds of his hi hat intro its obvious that this guy is not a jazz player in any shape or form and has no feeling of what swing is. How did he get this gig. Buddy would roll over in his grave if he thought this was a homage to his greatness, Sorry Cathy the king is NOT wearing any clothes.

Rest peaceful legend ❤ your beats will live on in future drummers. You were a legend and a blessing in many lives.
Seeing Neil.with a stripped back kit just highlights how good he was. Awesome talent taken too soon under the cruelest of circumstances
made That look easy- just a run through the park.
Yes!!!
Is rare seeing neil peart whit that drum kit!
Neal peart, dejó facinado a los músicos y el público,que grande era y seguirá siendo 😊
DECENT! ~ bubbles
I give Peart a lot of credit for trying.

Love Peart for what he did, but this is just kind of painful to watch.
Why? I loved it!
Yeah ok. That was painful to read.
Yet you couldn't do it, and would be twice as painful to watch you try.

And coming up, Frank Sinatra.
Didnt he train with gruber later on in the 90s? I ask bcuz hes using traditional grip. Did it start earlier?
Yes he did but I don't know which came first, this or his Gruber lessons. I do know in Cottontail he does switch grips throughout the song.

Using a much smaller kit and a clear snare batter head...fairly uncommon.

Still, not all that common..
Very short sustain .

Neil's a little stiff playing this type of music, his feel is a little weird.
He got much looser later.

Sorry Cathy the king is NOT wearing any clothes.
this is satire correct
You are 100% correct. There is very little swing or soul in Neil's playing and he would've have done well to stay far away from any music like this.
Sorry. It's just not happening.
It does and it did.
Come on. It's clumsy and amateurish. He's just not a jazz drummer. Which is not to take away from his rock drumming.@@ortizmo
LOLOLOLOLOL@@caferrara
@@caferrarawatch his later drumming, like the 30th anniversary tours and his big band tribute. He changed his entire playing style because of this.
