Elvin Jones... I was lucky enough to hear him live once (with Wynton Marsalis). It was a mind blowing experience.

I love Klaus Dinger and Jaki Liebezeit as well - for plain rock grooves I still prefer John Bonham though...

I don't always listen to drum solos -

Clive Deamer mostly, although there was a track or two where Geoff Barrow played the kit (in addition to the tracks with programmed drums).

Quite the opposite to your Neil Peart types... Rob's kit used to consist of kick, snare and hats only and would make them count. :)

Stephen Morris is definitely another one of my favorites.

Probably wouldn't make anyone's top 10 for best drummer ever...but I always thought Mick Fleetwood was very tasty...just the right drummer for that sound.

I really like Jason Rullo from Symphony X.

That's what death metal drummers call the gravity roll. You basically hit the rim (and snare) and when lifting the stick, it hits the snare. Back and forth.

and my favourite metal drummer, moe carlson from protest the hero. Keeps it simple and crisp but still complicated. His ability to switch between odd time signatures over and over is astounding.. and how he can play along protest's shredding, lol.


Some other favourites: Danny Carey from Tool, Tony Royster Jr., Joey Jordison
