This is intended to be a homage to very many musicians I've loved since I started listening to music. My intention is to tell what I know about them, hoping that those people who like them too, will help me fill numerous gaps, which I may have in their careers and discographies. Sorry, but there are no MP3 audio files here at all, just info (and love for the musicians).

Wayne Pedzwater (bass)

(Also known as: Wayne Pedziwiatr)
BANDS:
  • Georg Wadenius Group
  • Simon & Garfunkel
  • Thom Rotella Group
  • Buddy Rich Orchestra
  • Blood Sweat & Tears
  • Bette Midler Band
  • Vaneese Thomas Band

BIOGRAPHY:

Superb bassist, although his first instrument was not bass (it was sax and clarinet). He was born on September 2nd, 1956. His real name was Wayne Pedziwiatr, but he changed it to Wayne Pedzwater probably due to being a bit difficult to spell correctly.

After playing in several bands and attending Berkelee School in Boston, his first chance was given to him when he was called to join Buddy Rich Orchestra. He was 19 at that time.

    Hi there, I am a big Buddy Rich collector living in Sweden and I am right now writing on a big biography on the worlds greatest drummer. Hopefully, it will be released in 2015 both in Swedish and translated to english. I saw your questions about when Wayne joined the Buddy Rich band and I can tell you he replaced bass player Tom Warrington 10th of May 1979. They were rehearsing for a tour in UK starting the 12th of May to 3rd of June 1979. Wayne stayed with Buddy to july 1981. Hope you are satisfied with answer. Otherwise you find me at www.buddyrich.se Pelle Berglund, Stockholm, Sweden.

    1. Hi, Pelle - thanks for your valuable info! I'll check your site and I'll place a link to it from my page, also in my pages about Frank Foster, Derek Watkins, Al Porcino, and I'm currently working on pages about Joel DiBartolo, Hal McCusick and Ollie Mitchell. Thanks again!
