Put forward your favourite drummer

[Sergei's Celebration]

After a drunken conversation with Mr Celebration the Elder last night I thought I would open this up to NSC.

What is your favourite drummer / piece of drumming?

My suggestion is....Phil Taylor on overkill...

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Neil Peart

Chuck in Alex Lifeson for the best guitarist as well.

 

[Horsham Gull]

Dave grohl

 

[Thimble Keegan]

That would be this guy then:

Albion, England & Stone Roses forever.

Thimble Keegan
Rustington BHA

Ooohhh good shout! just watched that, loved one of the Youtube comments which suggested he was trying to beat himself at a drum-off.

 

[Joe Pineapples]

Kenneth Schalk, drummer for Candiria. Jazz drumming background, hits incredibly powerfully, blending a range of styles from metal to hip hop to funk and jazz. Here's a vid (he breaks his double kick pedal halfway through though, heh):

 

[Ned]

John Bonham

 

[Hungry Joe]

Wood from British Sea Power, amazing drummer...

 

[BobbySmith]

John Henry Bonham end of thread

Before I opened the thread I had my picks, Mikkey Dee and Bonzo. Many others are great, but IMO none are better.

Favourites
Moon, then perhaps Mitch Mitchell, then Ringo.

Best drummers in Rock? Ginger Baker, Terry Bozzio, Bill Bruford.

Most astounding and impressive I've seen was probably Aynsley Dunbar. Outrageously good - versatile and reliable, inventive and exact.
Incidentally he was a choice for Jimmy Page when forming Led Zep, before Bonham.
In my opinion, John Bonham has been surpassed - by his son Jason

That was amazing.

 

[bhafc99]

David Narcizo.

Not only was he an awesome drummer, he also got to look at the arses of Kristin, Tanya and Leslie all gig long, every gig. Mmm.
