I play a percussion instrument, not a musical saw; it needs no amplification. Where it's needed, they put a microphone in front of the bass drum. But, I don't think it's necessary to play that way every night.Buddy Rich
Select Buddy Rich Quotations
You only get better by playing.
Buddy Rich
It takes us about four or five days to get an album out.
Buddy Rich
Well, I never really practiced because I never had the opportunity to practice.
Buddy Rich
Almost everything I've done, I've done through my own creativity. I don't think I ever had to listen to anyone else to learn how to play drums. I wish I could say that for about ten thousand other drummers.
Buddy Rich
There were so many individual styles thirty or forty years ago.
Buddy Rich
But, I don't think any arranger should ever write a drum part for a drummer because if a drummer can't create his own Interpretation of the chart and he plays everything that's written, he becomes mechanical; he has no freedom.
Buddy Rich
So, practice, particularly after you've attained a job, any kind of job, like playing with a four piece band, that's... an opportunity to develop.
