Fav/best drummer

[JamesHunt]

Ok, so we had the best lead/bass guitarist threads, so let's move onto drummers. Who's your favourite drummer?

Of course I votwe Moonie. Not the best technically, but when he let rip he was savage!!!

:twisted:

[GroobySteven]

Moon no doubt.

[rockabilly]

John Bonham

Lars Ulrich

Atom Willard

Pat Wilson

Tommy Lee

[Willie Escalade]

Tony Williams
Narada Michael Walden
Billy Cobham
Alphonso Mouzon
Norman Connors

and my all-time favorite...the one I'd call if I had a recording session going on...

Harvey Mason

[BellaBellucci]

Dave Grohl. Hands down. Queens of the Stone Age is such a better band when he's with them.

~BB~

[rockabilly]

And Meg White .... I like to watch her pound the skins. :D

[El Nino]

I like BONZO!!

[CJ-HAF]

Carl Palmer

[xrey]

One of the best hands down and my ATF - Neal Peart of Rush!

His style, technique, talent, and precision are rare and combined with his writing not many can match.

[hippifried]

Billy Cobham is the man. Never misses. Keeps everybody on, adds effect as needed, & only gets overpowering when it's called for. He plays with anybody in any genre. I first saw him with the Mahavishnu Orchestra in 1972, & he's still going strong.

Billy Cobham is the man. On the money every time.
Mind you Tony Williams and Alphonse Mouzon were/are no slouches either.
For out and out power it has to be Mr Bonham.

[DJ_Asia]

Neil Peart is amazing,and I dont even like Rush!
I also dig Clem Burke from Blondie...listen to 'Dreaming' its a kick ass 3 minute drum free for all

[farang]

Elainne from Snap-Her

[BTGA]

Two come to mind right off. One male, one female. The great Al Jackson of Stax fame being the first. Laid the beat for many who rep'd that " Memphis Sound". The second being Ms Sheila Escovedo. Dynamic and energetic drummer who can cross the bridge from Latin to Jazz to Rock/Pop with relative ease. Plus she is sexy as $#%@. And lastly, my man P aint too bad behind a set either..... 8) 8)

[farang]

Prince lol

[sp3gold]

Fave? I'd have to say either Kieth Moon, Joe Morello or Michael Shrieve. Honurable Mention to Meg White because she's sexy as hell.
Check out Joe Morello.

[Coroner]

Judge them by their abilities, rockabilly...... sorry, but that chick can´t even hold the sticks properly.

[Dirky]

She could hold my stick any day.

But yeah, she's not a good drummer at all.

[rockabilly]

Hmmm that's fair , but it works w/ their music style.
Stripped down and basic. :shrug:

[Dirky]

Don't get me wrong, I like Meg. She has charisma and oozes coolness. Even though she's not a technically great drummer, I'd rather listen to her playing than some bore like Neil Peart.

[rockabilly]

Dirky do you hear that ?

RUN!!

Pearts fans are coming after you w/ torches and pitchforks!

I'll stall them w/ oneliners and bad puns. lol
