YouTube - Best drum solo by a seven year old ever?

At long last, somebody has mentioned Keith Moon. Tommy Aldridge is another "session" musician who has featured on so many albums it would surprise you. Take a listen to Dallas Warhead by Gary Moore to hear Aldridge pound those skins.

(take away trickery like triggers and a lot of modern drummers won't sound half as good)

Good but not THAT good. Don't get me wrong, I like Mastodon, but I have friends who could outdrum many of the current "best" drummers.


And I agree with Keith Moon being among the best ever.

Hi
I like drumming by Extol drummer David Husvik. He beats Danny Carey, Dave Lombardo or anyone else you might care to mention by a walk. No-one really touches him. Joey Jordison is also a good drummer.

Forgot about Tommy Lee.....i'm not the biggest Crue fan by a long way but he can play damn good.

As can Travis Barker.

Terry Bozzio is better than most people mentioned in this thread.

Most definitely. Him and Hellhammer; two best black metal drummers.



Also, and I don't mean to sound like an *******, but Joey Jordison is pretty mediocre compared to other drummers. He's no different than every metalcore drummer out there, aside form the fact he plays in a 9-piece nu-metal homo project called Slipknot. And his double bass skill/technique/whatever you wanna call it, which is the first thing I've ever heard anyone say about him (He's so fast on teh double bass LAWLZ!!), is nothing special. I've heard Hellhammer doing practically machine gun rolls when I saw Dimmu a couple weeks ago. He's a decent drummer, but I wouldn't put him up on such a high pedestal. But that's just me.

I will say he's good for inspiring young drummers to play metal (even though he's in a nu-metal band). I know he inspired me to play drums when I was young. He's a gateway musician to bigger and better drumming.

Tommy Lee is average at best.
