** Buddy Rich - Jazz Legend (1917-1987) **
Details the spectacular life of Buddy Rich, his music, and his passion. Features extremely rare footage of Buddy with Artie Shaw, Harry James, Tommy Dorsey, and performances with his own band as well as TV specials, home movies and festivals.
** Buddy Rich - Up Close **
In 1982, Buddy Rich filmed three shows over three days at the Statler Hotel in New York. They were never aired--in fact, never edited. This DVD, Buddy Rich Up Close, is a special edit of The Buddy Rich Show. It spotlights six songs: Love For Sale, Bugle Call Rag, West Side Story, Birdland, Greensleeves, and Dancing Men--with as many cameras as possible focusing on Buddy and his incredible drumming technique. Included are the show's main edit plus three different versions of audio (drums hot and band hot) as well as a slow motion version.
** Buddy Rich - Live in '78 **
Historically important, this DVD highlights the relentless power and unparalleled artistry of the man who was known as "The World's Greatest Drummer." This 75-minute concert, taped in Holland in 1978, showcases one of the tightest big bands in history, featuring acclaimed saxophonist Steve Marcus and other members of Buddy's "Killer Force," the group he would later call "the best band I ever had." Standout performances include Grand Concourse; Big Swing Face and Channel One Suite, which climaxes in Buddy's signature drum solo.
** Buddy Rich - The Lost West Side Story Tapes **
This outstanding concert DVD was originally recorded in 1985. The master tapes were thought to have been lost in a fire, but were discovered in 2000, along with the original "surround sound" master. Special DVD features include 4.0 Channel Dolby Digital and DTS Digital Surround tracks, solos of selected performers, track selection menu, additional commentary by Marie & Cathy Rich, Dave Weckl and Gary Reber. Also included are interview segments, behind-the-scenes footage of Buddy and rare photos from the Rich family archives. Superior production values, great playing, and a host of bonus features combine to make this arguably the best available audiovisual representation of the late Buddy Rich and his music.

This program presents Gene in fourteen complete, rarely seen performances spanning over 60 years, along with Benny Goodman, Lionel Hampton, Charlie Ventura, Anita O'Day, and an interview with the legend himself.

** Louis Bellson - The Musical Drummer **
"The Musical Drummer" features Louie Bellson at his best---leading an all-star quintet through seven compositions that illustrate a variety of styles and techniques. Clearly and simply, he isolates and analyzes his part in tunes that demonstrate swing, samba, shuffle, bossa nova and jazz/rock beats. Bellson also covers brush and double-bass drum technique. Highlights include two classic solos in the Bellson tradition. Featuring plenty of performance, this DVD is entertaining, as well as instructional.
** Louis Bellson and His Big Band **
Louie Bellson, the inventor of the two bass-drum kit, is famous for his memorable participation in the big bands of Benny Goodman, Count Basie, Tommy Dorsey and Harry James. He also revitalized the Duke Ellington band, where he became known as an arranger, and toured for many years with his wife, singer Pearl Bailey. His distinguished career has led him to recordings with Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Art Tatum, Oscar Peterson and many other superstars. Driving the band from the drums, Louie Bellson is a leader who controls the performance and has always had the respect of the players.
Louis Bellson leads his own orchestra in this live concert performance from Switzerland. Soloists include Randy and Michael Brecker, Lew Soloff, Tom Malone, Herb Geller, Howard Johnson and Gil Goldstein. Among the tracks Louis and his band play are: "Explosion," "Samantha," "Niles Ahead," "The Drum Squad," "Blues for Freddy," and "We've Come A Long Way Together."
While exploring contemporary sounds, Bellson keeps up the big-band tradition by leading his own orchestra, which includes 18 of the finest performers on the musical scene, creative soloists playing as a tightly knit ensemble. This is a superb live concert performance, recorded with eight cameras. The result is a great big-band performance in which Louie Bellson lends his talents as leader, time keeper, soloist, composer and arranger.
