1960 live album by Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich
The Drum Battle – Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich at JATP (later issued asThe Original Drum Battle! ) is a 1960 live album by drummersGene Krupa andBuddy Rich ,recorded at aJazz at the Philharmonic concert atCarnegie Hall in 1952.[ 1]
Lindsay Planer writing onAllmusic wrote of the opening tracks that "While Smith drives the band, Krupa is front and center with his antagonistic percussive prodding. 'Idaho' is marked with Jones' rollickingpost-bop mastery as he trades solos with Smith and can be heard quoting lines fromMonk before yielding to Smith. The cover ofDuke Ellington 's 'Sophisticated Lady' sparkles from beginning to end. Jones' opening flourish sets the tenure as Smith settles into a smoky lead, containing some nicesyncopation and regal augmentation from Jones....The tempo is significantly stepped up on a cover ofBenny Goodman 's 'Flying Home,' which is full of high-spirited playing and garners a sizable reaction from the audience. "Planer described Fitzgerald's performance on" Perdido "as" hot steppin' and definitive "and said it featured" authority, class, and most of all, soul ".[ 1] Rich and Krupa's performance onThe Drum Battle was described by Planer as a "mile-a-minute wash of profound percussion".[ 1]
