Traps - The Drum Wonder: The Life of Buddy Rich Hardcover (Book) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Mel Torme is not a genius of prose or of the biography genre, but he isn't unreadable either, and literary standards these days are low anyway.Besides, Mel Torme KNEW Rich for much of Rich's life.Buddy Rich asked Torme to write a fair biography, and that is what Torme has done.If you want to learn about the life of the greatest technical drum soloist of all time, this is the book to buy.I like the pictures, too.(How's that for genius in prose?)

Big Band: Drum Play-Along Volume 9 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)BE FOREWARNED, THIS IS NOT A PLAY-ALONG!!!!
I was tremendously disappointed, I already have excellent recordings of big band tunes! This is labeled a "Play-Along" which would indicate music minus drums.Perhaps even like the Rock books in this series with one example track with drums and one performance track without drums.How hard would that have been!!!Really feel shisted by Hal Leonard on this one.ITS NOT A REAL PLAY-ALONG!Save your money and buy a great recording of one of the great old big bands!

Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band Swingin' For The Fences Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was feeling like a kid at Christmas when I found that the Big Phat Band had a dvd for Swingin' For The Fences.The CD is a real favorite of mine and with all the new technology and the high-definition improvements available for video, I expected another awesome gem to add to my music library.What I felt I got was a real rip-off.

Some may think the music carries the dvd, but my interpretation of a quality dvd is action to go with the music.This collection of still photos as the music plays along is a joke.

I'd suggest Mr. Goodwin talk to the producer of Lee Ritenour's latest dvd release "Overtime" to find out how to put out a product that will give you goosebumps because of quality music and video together!

If I could have given this a lower rating, I would have in an instant!If your thinking about getting this purchase, I suggest just get the cd - the music is awesome.If you want still pictures, don't spend $25 for them.Buy a good magazine!
