Ted Nugent, Alex Liefson was superb, Neil Peart and Ian Paice favorite drummers, Bill Ward definatly the hardest hitting drummer and Geezer Butler a great bassist.

Ian Paice, yes. Don't forget Nick Mason.

Abe Laboriel Jnr is a session drummer of immense talent - drummers are often sidelined by slick guitarists, but pivotal to the band.

Laboriel plays for McCartney and Clapton among many others and if you saw McCartney at Glastonbury last year you will remember this guy working his socks off.

 


Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

OK, is this not the best drum solo, ever.

I used to play the drums a bit in the distant past, for me Paice was fastest stick work, Neil Peart most complicated sequences, Bill Ward the Loudest, and John Bonham probably best all round, rock only. but is there any other music

Ringo Starr was a very underated drummer. As was famously said of him 'he had to keep up with the 3 geniuses in front of him'!

Also famously said by Lennon was that he wasn’t even the best drummer in the Beatles

i'm not sure if Ringo really belongs in this thread. What with him being in the most successful group ever.

now, i bet you never heard of the fella below, even if you did see the movie......

My sister has lived in Australia for the last 40 plus years and whenever she came over she bought me a CD of some Aussie talent. She bought me a Tommy Emmanuel CD many, many years ago and I don't think that I ever played it thinking that it was the usual rubbish. I must see if I've still got it

Have a look on YouTube. There are some clips of him playing with his brother Phil who was also very, very good.
I must throw in Mick Ronson who was a bit of a hero. His guitar was great but his keyboard playing was excellent and his arrangements for Bowie and Lou Reed were brilliant.

I know, but as every Beatles fan knows he said it with tongue firmly in cheek. Oh, that famous scouse wit.

Blondie's drummer was/is very good too but hardly gets a mention.

Last time I listened to Parallel Lines I just concentrated on the drums. Quality hitting of the highest order!
