Whoever directed this is an unrecognized genius.

WAS BUDDY RICH HUMAN? NO ONE COMES CLOSE TO HIM ON THE DRUMS IN ANY STYLE THEN AND NOW. INCREDIBLE! IT MAKES ME WANT TO QUIT PLAYING!. NO ONE CAN BE THAT GOOD. ABSOLUTELY MIND BLOWING!!!
-
The good old days when talent actually meant some thing.
-
No computers, no internet and social network, just amazing hands work. Thanks for sharing.
-
Didn't realize how talented Jerry was, I just finished seeing jitterbug dance routine, he was incredible.
-
Even in todays standard of drumming this is incredibly bad ass
-
A Master Drummer and a Master Comic a perfect match for a lot of funny chaos.
-
I usually hate drum solos unless they are real short. This is an exception.

Can't say I'm all knowledgeable about drumming, but I have heard a few and Buddy Rich is the best - even at an older age he still could outplay anybody, not just speed but the flexibility to move anywhere at anytime around his kit incorporating wherever he went into the whole flow - live. No retakes, fill-ins, over-dubs. Just jaw dropping amazing.

Seriously!?!? 215 "people" downvoted this so far?!?!? I can't help but feel sorry for them. This is some serious talent
-
unquestionably the finest/fastest drum solo I've ever hear or witnessed. I just wish I could purchase a legitimate copy for myself
-
buddy always amazes me
-
I must admit I did not know Jerry Lewis could drum. I'm impressed.
-
Why are there not people like Buddy and Jerry, people with REAL talent rather than reality tv show Z list dropouts prominent on T.V nowadays? This scene is so brilliant it depresses me how bad the worlds entertainment has got. Sure yiu can find people with talent like this if you look but they dont get the credit they deserve.

So many of the older entertainers were multi-talented song and dance men who did comedy and other things. I always wanted to be a one man band.
-
Split screen on live TV. Yep...that was a huge innovation. Awesome clip. Thanks for sharing.
-
Hilarant and brilliant scene!!! Buddy Rich was a real genius, a magician on drums. Gene Krupa defined him as "the greatest drummer ever to have drawn breath" And Jerry Lewis is a real hero of our lives who gave us joy and fantasy, and is not a bad drummer at all. Thanks for postin'.

When I hear kids get in arguments about who is the worlds greatest drummer none of them know who the fuck Buddy Rich is. Buddy is the best drummer I've ever seen.

"When I hear kids get in arguments about who is the worlds greatest drummer none of them know who the fuck Buddy Rich is. Buddy is the best drummer I've ever seen." Too right, Jeffrey.

Oh man..Jerry Lewis was amazing. You can see so many comedic elements from his performances in today's comedy.
