But then again, most prog. drummers don't hold a candle to the drummers in most of the jazz/jazz-fusion bands I listen to, so the argument is irrelevant.
I agree, I havent heard a Jazz or jazz-rock group without an insane drummer; john marshall, elvin jones, jack dejhonette, tony williams, the list goes on.

As a matter of fact, pretty much all of the jazz/jazz-rock musicians are amazing.

But I had asked about Tool, because I was a little bit suprised that I was the only one here who voted for them so far...
