It's easier & simpler to keep to a certain time period, because the sky is the limit if it was for all time greatest drummers in rock, & also I'm more familiar with the 60's & 70's, the 80's had good music too, U2, Police, & all the new wave artists & Reggae to, which was in the 70's, I'd like a poll for the 80's/90's, but it's not my generation sort of thing, I'd like to see someone do that, that's more familiar with it.

Good grief, YES! Hal Blaine played on over 1000 hits, mainly in the 50's, 60's, and 70's. He played with just about anybody. He has a book out that I have really been meaning to buy...heard him interviewed on Mark Lindsay's radio show, and he is one talented guy. Not a youngter anymore {born in '29, I believe}, but he certainly had an interesting musical career.... Cool

Reply #33 - May 5^th, 2008 at 6:54pm Speaking of drummers...when the Byrds went looking for one, they picked Michael Clarke...NOT because he was good {he'd never drummed in his life!}, but because he looked like Brian Jones....

MOON Blew me away

One Name missing for me is Dave Clark of the 5, saw him live and those drums and had to play.
Ringo and Watts showed me how to play with a band.
Baker, Bonham, Miles, all great influences

BUT Moonie was and is the best Rock drummer of the period, for Showmanship, and Creativity
Krupa had he been in this time frame would have blown them all away but than theres RICH, that another story.
