I must accept you're joking m8. Lol!

Seriously though, I tend to think the other three drummers I mentioned are pretty high ranking?

Oh and we can also add Joe Morello and Gene Krupa into my personal hall of fame for drummers.

I must confess I never take too much notice of drummers when I go to concerts, other than when they go into their obligatory solo it tends to be the time I go to the bar :guiness;

Having said that I was mightily impressed everytime I saw Gavin Harrison with Porcupine Tree over the years.

Phil Collins is superb in Brand X
Shrieve is great on 'Go - live in Paris' and 'Transfer Station Blue' with Klaus Schulze

And what about Dave Weckl or BILL BRUFORD or Jon Hiseman.

The grandaddy of swing drummers. The Mighty Art Blakey.

No worries, Nigel. posts cross all the time.

Carl Palmer is another Brummie, as is Nick Mason. Alan "Skip" Moore from Judas Priest is another, as is Roger Taylor from Duran Duran, Barriemore Barlow (Jethro Tull) Everett Morton from The Beat...

I'll stop now. :lol:
