Here it is....Sing, Sing, Sing from a film made in 1937 featuring Gene on drums with the Benny Goodman Orchestra. Gene was great I just wish I could've met him. An originator of many things, the modern tom-tom, the modern drumset, the modern drum solo......way ahead of his time.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccj9NtO5-r8
Ludwig-dude;Well done, this is the stuff, right here. I've seen it a million times. i have the dvd, and NEVER does it get old or boring, and brother not only did the might Krupa bring all you mentioned, he made us the trap set drummer "musicians", we were considered, filler before gene came along. Gene Krupa is our les paul of the drum world, if you understand my les paul reference, Gene was an innovator,in the use of the dynamics of the trap set kit and it's new place as a soloing instrument, and also in equipment innovation's, we owe him awe!!!
