I had completely forgotten about this recording of Buddy Rich yelling at his band, but when we were touring, each of us could recite chunks of it from memory. And did. Often. You haven’t heard an excoriation until you’ve heard this one.

Think Christian Bale was bad? You don’t know anything. “How dare you call yourself professional.”

(Thanks to Wired.com for reminding me about this and 9 other great rants, specifically Russell vs Tomlin.)
