A Salute to Buddy Rich

Rating:
Summary: Hot Collins, Chambers and Smith!
Review: Absolutely excellent DVD. Great sound and quality picture plus the major talents of Phil Collins, Dennis Chambers and Steve Smith really playing hard on some of Buddy's greatest stuff. Phil is (in my opinion) one of the greatest jazz drummers around and not too many people know how capable he is, as he is known for mainly for his rock drumming with Genesis and solo R&B/jazz stuff, but Genesis would from time to time utilize and add bits of jazz-fusion styled ideas into their music. Of course seeing them live it was obivious they were major talents. Phil still has it! Dennis also plays great (as he usually does). He is one of the busiest drummers on the jazz/rock scene with the bands Niacin, CAB and numerous sesions with cutting edge artitsts. Dennis really drives the music with lightning speed and precision. Steve Smith is always interesting as well. Seeing all these guys play incredible jazz performed live is well worth the money.
