[Karl]

This is the Greatest Drummer of All Time right? We're looking for the Don Bradman of drums yeah?

I cannot believe that in 6 pages no-one has mentioned Buddy Rich.

Hang your heads in shame.

Fair point.

 

[Cliffhanger]

Nick Mason
Simon Phillips
Ulrich
Keith Moon

I'm going to say Matt Cameron, but that may be bias.

 

[doogiehowser_md]

Copeland for sure

 

[Karl]

Fair point.

He was my idol when I was learning as a kid. My teacher was old school.

Another absolute legend, a Hall of Famer that has been overlooked thus far is the legendary Gene Krupa.

He was a visionary too, much more than just a brilliant drummer. How many drummers have one of their kits in the Smithsonian?

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I can't believe I agree with boring Karl. Even my favourite drummer of all time Animal is impressed.

Jazz drummers are absolutely brilliant.

 

[HevyDevy]

Which is why Vinnie Colaiuta is my No.1

 

[carcharias]

This dude wins

YouTube the mad drummer
Drummer is at the wrong gig


Dudes in gold jackets

On my phone and too dumb to work out how to link it.

He is bloody unreal

 

[elbusto]

John Bonham. No debate.

 

[Karl]

John Bonham. No debate.

Great, but not as good as Buddy Rich.

 

[Jason Maher]

Animal from The Muppets.

This.

Actually, on Animal, I find it amazing how well they do at getting his movements in time with what is being played.

Carch, here is the link you're after:

[Eelementary]

Nick Mason
Simon Phillips
Ulrich
Keith Moon

I'm going to say Matt Cameron, but that may be bias.

I reckon Ulrich is one of the worst drummers I've ever heard tbh.

My nominations:

Martin Lopez
Flo Mounier
Chris Adler
Mike Portnoy

 

[Twizzle]

I relly dont know how Urlich got where he is, he reminds me a lot of Ringo

a 10 year old kid can replicate his drum beats and I dare say alot of 8 year olds

he must have just been in the right place at the right time, if you compare him with some one as complex as Carey or Mangini its like they play a different instrument

 

[LESStar58]

Have to tip my hat to Adrian Young of No Doubt as well...

 

[Twizzle]

charlie is meant to be one of the best ever in his day .

That is coming from Keiths book.
The stones had to pay him to join the band as he was in so much demand .
His timing is said to be near perfect.

he was very average, everyone in the Stones got paid, no big deal

 

[Skinner]

Charlie is a jazz drummer. Always was and always will be. Just a quick look at his upright style tells a story.

 

[carcharias]

Charlie was getting hired by the best muso's in London when he was a 20 yr old.
That is before the stones.

He is vey good at his style.

He left all the wankerism stuff up to mick.
Something Lars should have done.

 

[fightingirish69]

Neil Peart?

Gun songwriter too.

yeah neil peart is brilliant

 

[Suitman]

There has been some joke suggestions on here. Stu Copeland.....lol!!

Cannot believe that no one has mentioned Carl Palmer.
Come on Twiz, even you'd remember him!! And he was good. Very good.
