Old videos like this make me think drumming has gotten less showy over time

I fast forwarded to his solo and thought that the sonic artifact doing a constant and regular stream of du du du du du was the drummer doing some crazy bass drum control ostinato! LOL
 
fuuny how people danced to that back then

what was that tom that he was playing with a rectangular piece of material on top of it

Blinkie thumps the gut bass, and solos for while.....
 

do you not know who Ray Baduc is J?

his work with the Original Memphis Five, Tommy Dorsey , Jimmy Dorsey , and later with Bob Crosby had him setting trends in jazz drumming in the 20's 30's and 40's

he is a hero to many of the jazz players to come after him

Interesting, thanks. I'll read up on him.
