You guys always overlook Brann Dailor in these polls,which is almost criminal.
 
Never heard of Brann  please educate me

Brann Dailor is the drummer for the prog metal band Mastodon.I have never really heard anyone play like he does,his style is very eclectic.

Threads like these are always a great opportunity to remind people of some less-known - but not less-worthy - drummers. This time it's going to be the late, great, Ian Wallace - beautiful, exquisite playing on King Crimson's "Islands". In general, KC's pre-Bruford drummers - Wallace, Michael Giles and Andy McCulloch - are undeservedly ignored.

Mr.Bruford was extremely influenced by Mr.Michael Giles from the 2 first KC's album.. Does that make you feel better?Embarrassed


Not really. I know Bruford was influenced by him. Still, he is rarely mentioned here.

I wouldn't even play the same solo twice).







Neil Peart

Bruford because of how many bands he played in and how many good albums were made with him on the drums.

UK - s/t
KC - Larks Tongues In Aspic, Starless and Bible Black, Red
Yes - Fragile, Close to the Edge

etc...

I know I missed a few good albums out but thats because these are the only ones I've heard so far

I think Bruford and Collins were the most innovative of the Golden Age prog drummers.   Palmer and Bruford were probably the most influential.  Peart and Christian Vander both are extremely important for reasons that go beyond the drum kit.

Carl Palmer rules! I'm still perplex with his solo I watched last March. How can a human being produce the music he produces?

Guys want some good avise from my heart .  and I'm not tring to be a jerk, just giving you something to think about.  Having banter over all these topics does nothing to move you forward in your drumming careers/  .  All drummers have something to offer, even the really average ones do something good.  So something i want you to thinnk about is take the time you spend on here throwing your opinions around and sometimes getting angry at each other doing more productive stuff.  Dont' spend three hours a day on the web site, spend 3 hours a day on your drums. 
 
We didnt have this stuff when i was comiig up so all i had to do was practice.  So if your really wanting to become a pro drummer and soley make  your living playing drums i stronly suggest you get off here and start shedding. 
 
Maybe someday guys will be talking about you on this site.  Network yourselves, go to jam nights and get your name aroud the town you live in.  Get in a practice routine.  Come to the drum sites for knowledge not to argue.  Not being a dick just telling you how iti is.  You wont land a nationa  tour by coming here everyday and shotting your mouths off. But you might if you practice .  hope you get that
 ONE THING PERFEC;TU CLEAR TO GUYS,  I AM IN NO WAY BASHING THIS WEB SITE.  iTS ONE OF THE COOLER ONES  HAVE FOUND.  JUST SPLIT YOUR TIME, DON'T SPEND 3 HOURS HERE GOING AT IT WITH SOME ONE WHO LIKES ANOTHER DRUMMER BETTERT THAN YOU.  sh*t THAS NOT IMPORTANT.  COME HERE FOR THE HANG WITH YOU FELLOW DRUMMERS, BUT AT LEAST SPLIT THE DIFFERENCE AND PRACTICE (STUF YOU SUCK AT) FOR TWO HOURS EVERY DAY.  YOU WILL BE AMAZED ATHOW MUCH BETTER YOU START TO PLAY.  ONE LAST TIP MY FAVORITE DRUM WORK OUT IN THE WHOLE WORLD THAT I HAVE DONE FOR YEARS IS KENNY ARNOFF'S POWER WORK OUT 1 AND POWER WORK OUT 2.  i CANT' PRACTICE AS MUCH AS I WOULD LIKE THESE DAYS BECAUSE OF MY TOURING AND STUDIO SCHEDULE BUT ISTILL SNEAK IT IN
CHECK IT OUT GUYS  POWER WORK OUT ONE IS FOR YOUR DOUBLE KICK AND NDPENDECE AND POWER WORK OUT TWO IS ALL ABOUT INDEPENCE.  BEST WORK OUT I HAVE EVERY SEEN, AND DOES TONS FOR YOUR PLAYING.    IM JUST HERE TO HELP YOU ANYWAY I CAN.  I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH A GREAT DRUMMING CAREER, HAVE BECOME AN EQUAL WITH THE GUYS I USED TO GO SEE AS  KID.  NOTHING BEATS JUST PLAYING DRUMS FOR A LIVING.  NOTHING.
 
SO STAY FOCUSED, BE COOL TO EACH OTHER AND PRACTICE STUFF YOU SUCK AT NOT STUFF YOUR GOOD AT.
ALL THE BEST
JOE
all the best

UOTE=schizoid_man77]It's almost stupid how good terry Bozio is.[/QUOTE]
 
 
zI totally agrree. Bozzio is just off this planet.  he is like drum composer.  I put him and Vinnie Caluita in the same alien shhip they flew here from   For sure some of the top drummers today.   Think thtat really crakes me up about Teryy is he is so soft spoken.  I met his x wife once because I did a one off with Missing Persons after Terry quit.  All I can say is if she was my wife i would be quiet too.  She was off the hook. 
 
anylway good taste in drummers bro.  Bozzios ostinatos blow me away
 
all the best
