I just uploaded a short video demonstrating a couple of Gene Krupa
breaks / solos. The first is one used in the Glenn Miller Story with
Satchmo, where Gene doubles the tempo on Basin St Blues. The other is
part of a solo which he used regularly in later years and which can be
seen on the DVD Gene Krupa Jazz Legend. This consists of a snare drum,
hi-hat figure which concludes with the bass drum / cowbell figure he
learned from Zutty and which Zutty played (very similar)in his knockout
solo on Moppin' & Boppin'.
