He was rolling so fast on that snare drum that I'm surprised the skin didn't start to smoke and catch fire

What a freshness of Swing music!
So modern way to play!

All the kids are doing queen of the Stone age and watching that metal drummer and I'm just thinking of this guy and Neil Peart

So, so glad was able to see him play live a # of times. Best was a free concert at Cooper River Park in NJ. As a kid went right down & planted myself right in front of his kit 8-). Buddy would be draped with sweat by the end of performances, he was def. one of the hardest workers in Showbiz! His Marine Corp. roots never left him & expect the best from himself & band members..
