i'm shocked only one person mentioned Matt Cameron so far (and like 4 years ago). super talented and always stuck to a minimal kit. not unlike another personal favourite - Joey Castillo, his work with QOTSA has been top notch and i really like the power and drive he can produce from a simple setup.

and not a single person likes Stephen Perkins (Jane's Addiction) here? sad same goes for Chad Smith.

as for classic rock it's all about Mitch Mitchell for me, though to be honest (as per the slight derail from a while back) i never thought Noel Redding was 'that' good. plus he always came across as bitter and jealous of Hendrix in any interview i saw or read. Mitchell on the other hand, struck me like someone who just wanted to play his a$$ off and smile.

Haha I just noticed that I had put Bill Kelliher as a drummer. Ofcourse I know that Brann Dailor is the drummer. I must have been up late when I wrote that

Tim Yeung. That guy is pure skill. Chris Adler comes in second. I personally think Joey Jordison is a little overrated. Oh, I know! The drummer from AC/DC with his ever innovative *bass* *snare* *bass* *snare* in EVERY song.

New guy ragging on Acca Dacca that's original, Phil Rudd is a very good drummer vital to their sound, his behind the beat drumming was sorely missed when he left the band.

I'm not a huge fan of making lists of favourite musicians, as there are bound to be better musicians in whatever I haven't heard of yet but, mainly, it's not exactly something I spend a lot of time thinking about.

I'll just (perhaps predictably) give Pete Thomas of the Attractions a shout though. As I say, I'm sure there are plenty better than him out there, but the man's really knows how to pound out a great rhythm, and he's such a versatile player too.

My favorite is Keith Moon. Too bad he is not still around, I wish I could have seen him perform live.
