Buddy Rich: "Mystery Guest" on "What's My Line?" 1974
For any number of reasons, Buddy disbanded the big band he had been leading since 1966, with its last engagement being at Jimmy's in early 1974. He scaled down to a sextet, and at the same time, lent his name to a new, New York city nightspot called "Buddy's Place." Now a New York city resident, Rich appeared on virtually every New York-based television program promoting "his" club and the sextet. This included appearances on "I've Got A Secret" (where he played drums upside down), guest-hosting the "Dick Cavett" program, and appearing as both panelist, and in this case, "Mystery Guest," on "What's My Line?"

3. Buddy Rich Drum Solo: 1984
Buddy was always relaxed during his many concerts at Disneyland though the years. He was close to home, he could settle in for about a weeks' stay in one place, and the Disney crowds were always young and enthusiastic. By the mid-1980s, his solos had often become predictable, and Buddy would be the first to tell you that he didn't like soloing anyway. But, he knew what the fans were waiting for and always gave them their monies' worth. In this 1984 solo, however, Buddy Rich is as technically astounding as ever, and more importantly, consistently fresh, surprising and inventive.
