I've got a topic for you.
We all ask about our favorite bass players, but your favorite drummer?
I think we would all agree that the drummer is all so important when playing bass.It's the beat that he lays down that inspires us to create the groove with him.
I'd kill to play with Charlie Watts or Steve Jordan.

For pure drumming brilliance, Danny Carey from Tool. |

Lester Estelle Jr.

I'd probably give one of the boys to play with one of those three.

| | | | Ooh! Definitely Bernard Purdie, Steve Gadd or the Motown drummers; Uriel, "Pistol" Allen and Benny Benjamin.
To play with Stewart Copeland would be brilliant as well! |

Bill Bruford
Neil Peart
and Stewart Copeland (Yeah I know. I listed him twice.  ) |

| | | But he is a drum god! So why not!? |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: Niagara, Ontario | | | JB from Zepellin...innovative and precise. He had a sound on drums that I have yet to hear repeated (partly due to his technique, partly recording techniques/gear, I'm guessing): Raw, yet expertly controlled.
Other favs:
-Neil Peart
-Stuart Copeland
-Dave Grohl
-Bud (Sublime, Long Beach Dub Allstars)
-Precision/speed kings: Dave Lombardo (ex Slayer), Travis (Blink 182), Joey (Slipknot)
Bottom line: If you have a bad drummer, you have a bad band! |

tim alexander from Primus is really good too i think. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
