With an energetic and flamboyant style that distinguished him from other American jazz and big band drummers, Gene Krupa became one of the most influential drummers of the 20th century. With a career that started in the late 1920's, Krupa became the first drummer inducted into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame. Presented here are among his most memorable recordings as a big band leader featuring "Drum Boogie," Krupa's signature tune co-written with trumpeter Roy Eldrige; "Disc Jockey Jump" written with saxophonist Gerry Mulligan and many more. All selections newly remastered.
