That's a very similar list. I think there may have been a lack of originality from one of those authors.

I agree 7 through 1 should be considered but I don't necessarily think Peart is the best.

that was clive burr!

In fact, I was right the first time.

It's the same bloody list. Check your damn sources. Fool.

google "best rock drummers"
and very few of the lists have peart any lower than 3rd!

Loved all pre ''And Then There Were Three'' stuff.
Seen them 3 times and one of their tribute bands

For me Chester Thompson is / was one of the best drummers (was the drummer on many of the Genesis tours). Brilliant when he and Collins both played drums together on Dance on a Volcano.

Ginger Baker (Baker Gurvitz Army, Cream) was also awesome.
Jon Farriss - INXS
Rick Allen - Def Leppard
Nick Mason / Keith Moon etc etc

I don't deny he's a good drummer. The whole flipping band is special (not really to my taste). However, Palmer, Powell, Ginger, Bonham, maybe Ringo, and a few others would probably be that high in a lot of other lists.

Personally, which as I said originally is what this basically comes down to (due to style and preference), I don't agree Peart is the best. AS I said, Rush isn't my favourite band.

I thought this was rock not jazz?
Anyway, Cozy Powell was bildge. Ian Paice peed all over him in Whitesnake. He just......swung.
Also Neil Peart????

Foxtrot's a good album, after all, they were still learning their trade, but.....Supper's Ready IS THE GREATEST ROCK RECORD, EVER (in my humble opinion).

It's a great pity (for Genesis) that the punk era started. Some critics used to give them reasonable reviews, however, when punk started, the trendy music press decided to put the knife into them, because John Lydon told 'em to (incidentally, Lydon and Collins DO get on well with each other, contrary to popular belief).

Re Gabriel, jd.....So is another cracker, which is worth your attention.

Back on thread, good call for whoever brought up the name of Ginger Baker
Some of his drumming on that Cream reunion gig @ Royal Albert Hall was a joy to behold.
There was also a little known band called BBM, in which he teamed up with Jack Bruce (again) and Gary Moore. I've got a 2 minute video clip of them, and Baker doesn't miss a beat...quality.

Back on Neil Peart, this fella CAN drum. Each time Rush tour, I keep meaning to get a ticket, but never get round to it. I've not got a Rush album since around "Time Stand Still" circa mid-late 80's. Are they worth a buy?
