    The Greatest Drummer of All Time

    We beat the greatest guitarist topic to death more than once and have done the best vocalist once or twice, I thought it would be interesting to hear everybody's comments on who they believe is the greatest drummer of all time?

        Neal Pert from Rush has always been one of my favorites and technically sound.

            I'm going with John Bonham also. I also like Vinnie Paul.

              Neil Peart seconded.

              Favorite is Alex Van Halen though.

              Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater is also very good.

                I think Dave Grohl is very good.
                But all time that is tough.

                      In total agreement... I saw Rush play at DTE outside of Detroit 2 years ago and he had a drum solo for over 45 minutes. The man is in my opinion the best drummer out there. I would highly suggest anyone who hasnt seen Rush to go see them, they put on a good show and is not that expensive.

                          I'm torn between Ginger Baker and John Bonham.

                            I like Stewart Copeland.
                            I drive a 2005 Toyota Prius Gas/Electric Hybrid. My last tank was 53.6 miles/gallon. Gas prices fear me!

                            Oversimplification is the escape of men who want to avoid the duty demanded by true understanding.

                              I'm kind of biased but, Danny Carey.
