Yes, Tough is recognized as a great drummer, but nobody is recognized 'almost universally' as the greatest. That is a silly statement. Benny's favorite drummer was in fact Krupa (according to Bellson). Ellington's favorite was Bellson. Basie's favorite was Jo Jones. Krupa and Rich were much more than 'exhibitionists'. There are many exhibitionists who go onto youtube channels writing comments in an attempt to flash their higher aesthetic sensiblities to the masses.

We obviously have a difference of opinion but personal attacks because of them is childish

Agreed. That was a little too much. What do you think about Gene Krupa?

I prefer him to Buddy Rich, but hell they're both beyond category , as Duke might say.

Dave Tough was an interesting guy. Very well read, hung out with Hemmingway in Paris, and a sad alcoholic. Brilliant musical drummer by all accounts. I would love if someone did a film on him.

I didn't know those cultural things about Dave. Thanks for posting. I met Dave in Chicago at the Stevens Hotel at a college dance years ago. He was such a fine guy.

This was so great. I listened to "Limehouse Blues" by the TRIO forever when I was in high school and I cannot find it anywhere. Does anyone know where I can find it?
