a couple that probably don't cross many radar screens here are carl palmer of emerson, lake, and palmer. and richard hayward of little feat. hayward is incredible. palmer played in a very heavy, british power trio with a jazz drummer's style. everything was from the shoulders down. no arm flailing, nothing in the kit above head level (including cymbals). very impressive, extremely underrated.

i was so close to including palmer in the poll but i wanted to keep it down to just 5, and i knew he would not get the amount of votes he deserves. he is very underrated however
