Great Drummers

[Chewbacca]

Not technically the greatest drumme but the greatest drum sound ever committed to vinyl was Eric Carr of Kiss on their album Creatures of the Night

 

[RufusCat]

Terry Bozzio for me, particularly in the Bozzio, Levin & Stevens "supergroup" albums.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Jesus....Forgot my all time favourite.

Levon Helm...The Band.

Can't believe I missed him out.

There am done.

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

Epitome of coolness...

 

[perth_blue]

Max Weinberg is up there for me.

 

[No Alla Violenza]

Clyde Stubblefield

 

[glorydaze]

The always forgotten and under rated Ian Paice of Deep Prple

 

[Bedfordblue]

As already posted, Ginger Baker, might go stick this on.

Also think Chad Smith is very accomplished.

Clip cracks me up (albeit not meant to show case his ability!)

 

[DualityNSNO]

Mario Duplantier and there is no one else currently better, soz x

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

Chris Sharrock from The Icicle Works was a top drummer.

 

[Dixieslaces]

Ronnie Tutt, Elvis concert drummer.

Famously said, "only orchestra in the world conducted by a guysass!"

Also worked with many others;

Elvis Costello
Neil Diamond
Grateful Dead

Etc etc

Wonderful drummer and a real down to earth man.

 

[ste d' indica]

Doktor Avalanche

 

[Bedfordblue]

What the thoughts on Travis Barker or Questlove?
Personally think they’re very good but .

Barker in particular seems to get a bit of hate possibly due to his fame but some better qualified than me could advise on his actual ability.

 

[larbert toffee]

Who said girls can't drum?
The power house that is Cherise Osei from Simple Minds.

 

[Bishop Thumpety-Thump]

Jesus....Forgot my all time favourite.

Levon Helm...The Band.

Can't believe I missed him out.

There am done.

Best of all time imho. Great voice too. Have you heard the two albums he did just before he died with Larry Campbell and Amy Helm? They’re a bit country but really good. His voice sounded very different after radiotherapy but his drumming was even better than before.
