For his fans, Buddy Rich was the greatest jazz drummer of all time. He kept his audience in suspense with long solos, only to leave the stage covered in sweat afterwards. The American secured his long-term success with his own orchestra. Born into a family of artists and already gave concerts at the age of four under the pseudonym Traps the drum wonder. At the age of fifteen he became (after Jackie Coogan) the second highest paid child star of the 1930s [1]. He made his first experiences as a jazz drummer with Joe Marsala in 1937 and was then signed by Artie Shaw. Like his still young band colleague Frank Sinatra, he finally achieved international fame in the early 1940s with Tommy Dorsey. With Sinatra's financial help, Rich founded h...

Herbert Jeffrey "Herbie" Hancock. Few artists have gained as much respect and influence in the music business as Herbie Hancock. He began his incomparable career at the age of 22 in the famous quintet of Miles Davis, which wrote jazz history in the 60s. Hancock then continued his innovative course with his own bands Mwandishi and Head Hunters, among others. The pianist set the last milestone in his career in 2008 when he won two Grammys. He caused a worldwide sensation when he received the highly coveted Grammy for the best album of the year and stood up to strong pop competition.
