This particular Barney, probably knows all about septic. He is the top man at producing shitty turkey products; one of which is fondly known as a Turkey Drummer! (In other words processed bits from a turkey, shaped into a drumstick and coated with breadcrumbs and no doubt, numerous other bits of crap)............hhhhmmmmmm. Yum.

Precisely what I was thinking of putting! Though I would have added the late great Pete deFreitas to the list as well.

Don't forget CLEM BURKE from BLONDIE! Amazing drummer.

i like the little drummer boy.

Roland TR909 Roland TR808 Emu-Systems SP1200 Oberheim DMX Boss DR808

Monty's right (as ever). Clem Burke is the best pop drummer around. The Monday's drummer (Wheelan?) always impressed me. But then I am easily impressed.

Can't believe anyone's put Larry Mullen, who's average, or Ringo Bloody Starr, who is crap.

There's a great story (which I've probably remembered wrong) where Ringo and Lennon are falling out in the studio over the way the drums sound. "I'm doing my best, but I know I'm not the best drummer in the world" said Ringo. "You're not even the best drummer in the Beatles", replied John.

Or was it George Harrison?

What was the name of that one armed drummer from, er Marillion was it? No, Def Leppard.

He's gotta be worth a mention.

Yeah,not a great drummer,but no arm done!

Leave him alone, he's 'armless.

He's there to be shot at..going out on a limb like that.

He's not very handy round the house though.

George Martin has his say here (at 2:25 or so):

I dont really analyze things this much.

my personal top 5

Neal Peart-Rush Stewart Copeland-The Police Keith Moon-Legend! Steve Morris-Human Drum Machine Bill Ward-Black Sabbath

Honorable mention to Felix Griffith Formerly of D.R.I. , he was the best Hardcore/Punk drummer i ever saw!
