Welcome to The Unofficial Buddy Rich Website. This site was first created in 1999.

Buddy Rich - "I consider every drummer that ever played before me an influence, in every way. There were so many individual styles thirty or forty years ago. Every drummer that had a name, had a name because of his individual playing. He didn't sound like anybody else, So everybody that I ever listened to, in some form, influenced my taste" (Modern Drummer1977).

Gene Krupa

"I don't know if he learned anything from me, but I certianly learned a lot from him".
