Ja, jus kiddin'. i voted for Bonham, i m not diggin too much in Rush yet, so i left out Neil Peart. And Keith Moon is the who dude? I didn't know he was considered one of the best.

I'm not touching the portnoy theme, I've seen your point.

That bit where he comes in on 'Won't get fooled again' ..

Though I admit, Bonzo is a cool drummer too.

And Rick Wright.

But it's still Keith Moon for me :)

Rick Wright? I think you're confusing him with Mason.

Peart, all the way.

Well, I'll choose Neil Peart for Prog Drummer.. He is a legend technically and expressively..

I love MIke portnoy's Concept in structuring his drum part of songs... I can feel more emotion than Neil, just that he didn't reach the technical ability, so which is quite sad...

Phil Collins, I pretty think he is quite overrated.. I dun see he is that good in my OPINION.. lol

For other drummer wise, I like Buddy Rich, Steve Smith, Nathenial Townsley, Dennis Chamber, Tony Royster JR and of course, CARTER BEAUFORD! =)

Perhaps the choice is simply too low... I know many excellent drummers (Andy Ward from the 1st Camel would be my favourite -- though it doesn't mean he's the best of all...), and all from the list seem a little bit too... unfamiliar. Who are they?

Out of the 3, I'd go with Peart. But Billy Cobham is tops with me. His ability to go from left to right handed drumming is incredible. I don't know too many drummers that can do that.

Nick Mason! Surely no other drummer can make a song as good as "I'm A Mineralist"!

Neil Peart is light years ahead of Bonham and so is Mike Portnoy.

As far as rock is concerned I think Neil Peart is the best. Der Trommler from R30 is INCREDIBLE

Jazz drumming needs more technical ability tho and buddy rich is best ever.

Bonham is an incredible drummer and is right behind peart. Moby Dick is a great solo and he was perfect for Zeppelins sound.

Kieth moon is technically way overrated but he did invent the "lead drummer"
