What no Nicko McBrain?

 

[jegarn]

Why no Chad Smith

Gets my vote, the master of funk

John Bonham is also a favorite

 

[mow_the_hawk]

Neil Peart. Although Keith Moon was a pretty close second.

I know Peart is a good drummer but how can he possibly tie Bonham in a poll which should really be called...... Who is the greatest rock drummer AFTER John Bonham?

.... Who is the greatest rock drummer AFTER John Bonham?

The answer is trivial: Lars Ulrich!

Is there anyone on this list more influential than Neil Peart? I think not. One more vote for The Professor.

I knew it!!

Neil Peart, with Mike Portnoy close second...

 

[pataburd]

You forgot Clive Bunker of Jethro Tull! : )

I pick Bonham. There are others with superior technique, but he is the one who has inspired me the most. His musicianship is amazing!

There are many other greats on that list. Other favorites are Bruford, Carey, Copeland, Peart, and Palmer. But Bonham beats them all as a musician.
