Buddy Harman another drum pioneer passes at age 79
Posted On 08/25/2008 04:38:58 by KenSanders

On my own page of the Drum Solo Artist website, I list Buddy Harman as one of my mentors.  He was a true pioneer for prominently using drums in the Nashville recording industry and he was definitely part of the famed “Nashville Sound” that developed in the sixties.

 

He was a legend in the music world.  I can say that every studio I went into during the sixties and seventies had one of Buddy’s left-handed Gretsch sets already stored there, rather that using cartage companies.  He was that busy with his recording dates!  

 

Buddy Harman was a fine gentleman with a quick humor and an always positive outlook on the situation.  I feel honored to have known him and to have benefited from his advice, wisdom, and his thorough knowledge of recording drums.  Here are just a few of the links that honor his passing and attempt to describe his incredible career.
