HERE WE HAVE WHAT MAY BE THE PIECE DE RESISTANCE FOR MANY DRUMMERS AND JAZZ AFICIONADOS. TWO OF THE GREATEST DRUMMERS IN MUSIC GOING HEAD TO HEAD IN A BATTLE TO DETERMINE WHO IS THE KING OF THE BEAT.

PICTURE THE SCENE: SEPTEMBER 1952. THE VENUE: THE CARNEGIE HALL IN NEW YORK. ONE STAGE, A HOST OF JAZZ AT THE PHILHARMONIC LUMINARIES AND A FRANTIC CROWD OF JAZZ-LOVING CONCERT ATTENDEES AND TWO OF THE GREATEST DRUMMERS, GENE KRUPA AND BUDDY RICH, SPARRING. THOUGH THESE TWO DRUM GIANTS WOULD SPAR AGAIN AND AGAIN IN THE YEARS TO COME, THIS IS THE SHOW-STOPPING CONCERT EVENT THAT STARTED IT ALL. BRILLIANT ******

TRACK LISTING: Introduction by Norman Granz / Idaho / Sophisticated Lady / Flying Home / Drum Boogie / The Drum Battle (Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich) / Perdido (Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich)
