KEITH MOON assholes.

Fuck techinque, he didn't have it...but it just didn't matter. Nobody played like him.

The drummer for Tool... HANDS DOWN! :thumbsup

One of my favorites is Simon Phillips I really like his style.
Terry Bozzio is great and ofcourse Weckl , Colaiuta, everyone
on this list is great. Also Stewart Copeland is good and Jack de Johnette.
And Journey drummer Steve Smith and many many more.

He basically played like a psycho, putting his heart and soul into it. Someone earlier on this thread said he had no talent. That someone is an idiot.

blasting slayer now...dave has that 80's metal nuch covered..no one had his speed with the composition

The thread says BEST DRUMMER.........not favorite drumming in a band.......

Buddy Rich is the most talented drummer of all time even though I would rather listen to John Boneham or Neil Peart.

But I mean, come on, Buddy Rich is the best by far.

Yep, Ginger Baker is the best ever.

John Fishman

its a serious honor when someone with a post count of 6 from 2001 actually makes a post in your thread

thank you

Neal Peart of Rush.

Scott Rockenfield

Neil Peart

The guy from Primus and the guy from Tool.

He his... no need to search more :Graucho

I did deisgn work with a company for his website back in 1998 when he just formed his Dave Weckl Band. Met him and everything, watching him live is craazzzy.

I didn't even read the thread cause there can only be one....

John Bonham. ( RIP)

:glugglug

Yeah it's Neil Peart.

He gets my vote, and hell I dont even like 'rock' music. It's the whole one arm thing that won me over.

After careful consideration I think the best drummer ever could be Brat from Got Jizz.

You are welcome, ytcracker! Nice thread!
Last few weeks I've been posting like never before, though.
I think this is my third post this year already :stoned

:1orglaugh

Hi Dean :)

ha ha
One of my favorite subjects (since I used to play drums for a living) Let me borrow from this list and add a couple.
Drummers most influental to me when I was growing up.

http://www.vinniecolaiuta.com
Steve Gadd
Tony Williams
Terry Bozzio <----I used to take lessons from
Bill Bruford
Simon Phillips
Gary Husband (used to play with Alan Holdsworth)
Billy Cobham
Jeff Porcaro (deceased)
http://www.natewoodmusic.com <---check out my young friend Nate .Wood ....drummer for "The Calling" for awhile.....plays ALL INSTRUMENTS on his own records. Writes, sings, plays guitar, keywords, bass & drums - NO COMPUTER BULLSHIT.

john bohnham.

I am

Neil Pert

VERY good selection - actually the three I would select.

One fine effort by Bozzio:

The track "Only Thing She Needs" is extremely good - my favorite headbanging tune of all time.

Bruford: I especially like the albums he has made under his own name.

I'd also like to mention the drummers on Steely Dan's albums. They may not be as "flashy" as some of the above-mentioned but they do the job very nicely indeed.

Billy Cobham
Omar Hakim

:)

system of a downs drummer is very good

Bill Stevenson gets the job done.

Matt Sorum

Yep. I used to listen to ALL that stuff. Worked on a record with Walter Becker in his studio in Maui :) One of the highlights of my drumming career.
That stuff also brings to mind the music of:
Brand X
Allan Holdsworth
John McLaughlin
and I FORGOT drummers:

Chad Whackerman

Michael Walden!!! For some of you younger drummers....go back and check out some of his shit...WTF!
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...glance&s=music
the first song on this record (they dont have a long enough sample for you to hear when the drums come in) one of my favorite performances by a drummer EVER. MICHAEL WALDEN ...dude....look out.
