[Why the frock? Gawd only knows...]
Darlings! We have another centenary to celebrate this weekend [his birthday was yesterday, but hey ho] - one of the greatest swing/jazz drummers of them all, Mr Buddy Rich!
After an enjoyable but exhausting day stocking up on Spring bulbs, wallflowers, violas and potting grit at the vast horticultural cornucopia that is Crews Hill, this is just the right type of celebration we need.
Perfectly fitting into the genre we know as "Sunday music", here is the 24-year-old Buddy, banging away with the boys of Tommy Dorsey's orchestra!
Bernard "Buddy" Rich (30th September 1917 – 2nd April 1987)
