Max Roachs' playing with Clifford Brown is some of my favorite stuff. Buddy Rich is always fun to listen to =)
Chick Webb is up there too, in my opinion.

There are so many, it's impossible to choose the greatest.
However, Buddy sure did fly on those drums.

I'd say Elvin Jones, Max Roach and Tony Williams for depth, communication and versatility. Buddy Rich for showmanship.
