But Peart has one of the best grooves, he's not doing blast beats or anything. He's not playing away from the rest of the band. He's just the best at what he does, tastefully playing progressive rock. You don't a lot of people doing that in the prog genre, so it's something to be admired. Chaulking Neil Peart up as just another technical prog drummer is foolish.
