    About this album

    Swingin' New Big Band finds Buddy Rich in commanding form, leading a punchy 1960s big band with speed, precision and bold drive. Issued in 1966, the album reflects Rich’s gift for turning jazz orchestration into a high-energy showcase for his explosive drumming and exacting bandstand discipline. With arrangements that move from bluesy grit to theatrical sweep, the record balances hard-swinging originals with inventive readings of material like “Uptight (Everything’s Alright)” and a West Side Story medley. It stands as a strong example of Rich’s role in keeping big-band jazz vivid, competitive and contemporary during the mid-1960s.
