Top 3 best drummers you would love to jam with.

[trigger_happy]

Ok, so here's the deal, if you had one chance to jam with a famous drummer, be it a legendary drummer or someone already resting in peace; it could even be the guy next door, who would it be?

Name your top 3 drummers! I guess mine would be:

1. Chad Smith
2. Jeff Porcaro
3. Steve Gadd

I like 'em cuz zey have really big 'sticks'!

But seriously, I'm gonna learn alot from 'em!

Here's mine!!
1. Steve Smith
2. Dennis Chambers
3. Antonio Sanchez

Sounds like fun. My choices would be

Dannie Richmond - Mingus was a God of music and Richmond only drove him to greater heights. Charles said he'd rather have no drummer at all than drum without Dannie. I know I have nowhere near the necessary chops, but I think Mingus discovered his genius partly through having the world's most amazing drummer, perfect for Mingus' genius. I don't so much wish I could play with Dannie as wish to find my own Dannie, somebody so perfect for my bass playing and compositions that he opens up new worlds.

Ringo Starr - I mostly play pop music, and Ringo is the perfect pop drummer with just enough grittiness in his hard-hitting style.

Ginger Baker - He might be something of a showoff, but mostly what he does is make basslines sound cooler.
