It has to have a lot of time to be studied. So it's easier to pick from that group as they have a larger influence as a whole on modern music. But, this was only a classic rock poll. I'll make more polls too if I get a good response. Report
May 15, 20215 yr comment_1036120 Seems strange to have Phil Collins on the list but not Ginger Baker, or Hal Blaine. I'd put Dave Grohl on this list before I'd even think of mentioning Phil Report
May 15, 20215 yr comment_1036133 Nice to see you here Fox. I agree that the list is a little light. Many greats are not included. My personal favorite is Prairie Prince. Report

May 27, 20215 yr Author comment_1036484 I actually enjoyed his drumming and learned quite a lot about him stylistically and historically. I was only aware of Steve Smith being in Journey. Report
May 28, 20215 yr comment_1036487 Music was my first love in my entire life, so I really appreciate the discussion. Some may wonder how John Bonham could make it on your list, but it would take a drummer, or an educated musician, to know that all you need to do is challenge any doubters to copy it. If you're going for just shear talent... you have to go with Peart, and the man also had mad lyric skills. Prairie Prince is my favorite drummer because of the music he created, as well as the people he has worked with.Goes a long way with me. Report
