TY you articulated well what I wanted to say .. Phil Collins is a good drummer .. but the guys I mentioned in the Poll I consider talent wise to be drum freaks. Theres  lots of other good drummers I didn`t mention, in the end you can`t please everyone   my only small regret was not including Jethro Tulls drummer Barriemore Barlow as I think he may have got a few votes (its hard to get these poll things perfect)

One likes to believe
In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises
Shatter the illusion
Of integrity

Phil Ehart is the drummer from Kansas. I voted Neil Peart. Portnoy is great but he wouldn't be if Peart hadn't paved the way.
Did you ever think for yourself? Just once,did you ever think? That's all I want to know>
