Quote by Buddy Rich

I think the drummer should sit back there and play some drums, and never mind about the tunes. Just get up there and wail behind whoever is sitting up there playing the solo. And this is what is lacking, definitely lacking in music today.


I think the drummer should sit back there and play some drum

Summary

This quote expresses the belief that drummers should focus on playing the drums rather than getting caught up in the melodies or tunes. The emphasis is on the drummer's ability to provide a supportive and powerful rhythm behind the soloist. The quote suggests that this quality is lacking in contemporary music, perhaps due to more complex arrangements or a shift in focus away from driving rhythms.
