Glad to see some love for Ronnie Tutt and Paul Cook!

My top three (rock only - I'm not qualified to talk about jazz):

Charlie
Moon
Topper Headon

Nice soliloquy again my friend beely, but Moon was so way out front. He would do drum rolls before the rest of the band could keep up. I saw him once. He sparred with Pete at center stage. It was classic Moon. Listen to his way up front drumming on Summertime Blues and My Generation. It's like he said, "I'm going to drum...you guys can keep up if you want." I love that style. Hey Charlie Watts is an excellent drummer and I love to hear him beat the skins. But when I'm asked who's the best of all time, I always go with Keith.

DJ Fontana.

"...no longer shall you trudge 'cross my peaceful mind."

Neil Peart
Keith Moon
Buddy Rich
Charlie

art blakey is my favorite drummer...

the drummer from Spinal Tap. All 32 of them. LOL!

as a drummer this guy pretty much got it right on the head. heres something though how come because the stones are everyone on heres favorite band, including mine,do they think everyone in the band is the greatest of whatever? just cause they are in the greatest band ever doesn't mean they are the greatest whatever except mick is probably the greatest front man ever, not singer but front man. charlie is not that great of a drummer. he's better than most but far from the greatest. other than the three listed above here are some other great drummers.
keith moon
alex van halen
vinnie paul
frankie banali
bobby rondinelli
lars ulrich
bobby rock
nick menza
tommy aldridge
carmine appice
ginger baker
myron grombacher

In any order...

John Bonham
Ginger Baker
Mitch Mitchell
Dave Grohl
Keith Moon
Carl Palmer
Carmine Appice
Charlie Watts
Roger Taylor (Queen, not Duran Duran)
Chad Smith
Ian Paice
Kenney Jones

I don't know much about Neil Peart's drumming but as almost everyone seems to name him, he might be a good drummer.
