a couple of really hot youtube clips from my good pal pablo! check it out:
gene krupa & buddy rich drum battle. 1966. two masters. did you know that peter sellers studied as a drummer under krupa? rad.
rahsaan roland kirk’s ‘pedal up.’ 1975. dear quincy jones introduces rahsaan as “the black master of black classical music” and its only then that you get a peek at an absolutely smoking jazz sax ninja… the dude plays two saxes at once! are they both saxes? one’s a soprano sax, right? anyway you got to wait for it, it gets completely absurd at about 5 minutes in, when one of the saxes threatens to pack it in and briefly ends up sounding eerily similar to a balloon having the air let out of it. this is crazy stuff.
