I dont really think Peart is THE most skilled drummer in rock, come to think about it Bill Bruford (King Crimson, Yes) probably is better, more experienced and hes showed himself to be very capable in many different styles (from prog to jazz)...Steve Gadd (Steely Dan) is also very skilled, Terry Bozzio (Frank Zappa) and Vinnie Colaiuta (Everyone, pretty much) are others, all of whom could take on Peart...And Carl Palmer (ELP) and Simon Phillips (Toto) come close, younger players like Danny Carey (Tool), Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater) and Tim Alexande
(Primus)...If we include all genres then there are many jazz drummers who destory Peart...Buddy Rich (Solo), Billy Cobham (Miles Davis, Mahavishnu Orchestra), Max Roach (Charlie Parker, many others) and Dave Weckl (Dave Weckl Band) among them.
