From me it is a hard choice,
John Bonham did do that long
solo on “Moby Dick” however
I think Neil Pert outshines John
Bonham overall.

Sorry just sounds funny.... If we judged drummers from a recorded solo the winner would be Peart for me with the "O baterista" from Rock In Rio but Peart is my least favourite from those three... I know that he is technically amazing and yes he has been through realy terrible situations.... What I don't like about him is that he prepares very carefully his solos and drum parts and doesnt really play what he feels at the moment something that the crazy keith moon had. His drumming is amazing. Its so real.... so alive for me.....
I'm between Bonham and Moon..... Bonham also is a drum legend.... His playing was more than progressive (meaning not the type of music of course)...hmmmmm... my vote goes to Keith Moon.... Probably at another time I would have voted John..

Bonzo was underrated - I prefer Peart

Keith moon. He is easily the most powerful drummer on the list. He has an amazing talent of hitting the drums in a seemingly random pattern yet keeping the beat. He perpetually sounds like he's showing off, fitting in perfectly with the Who's incredably excessive sound.
It's close, though. John bonham is pretty beastly.
I don't get much out of Neil Peart's drumming.

NEIL! NEIL! NEIL!
and what is all this talk of portnoi? what he plays is good, sure, and it realy goes with dream theater, but he makes it sound a lot harder than it is by having a LOT of drums. add to that the fact he cant play any rudiments at all (his own admission in modern drummer mag) a question about drums and NO MENTION of Billy Cobham!? FOR SHAME!
Ps. for all the DT fans give this guy a listen. he is a great drummer. one of the greatest.

Out of those 3 pretty easy decision. Although Zeppelin was always my favorite band, I pick the legendary Neil Peart. My second favorite drummer is actually Stuart Copeland.

Copeland is among my favorites as well.

the playing of moon is unlike anything i have ever heard. just the pure power and randomness. bonham is amazing also. he is lightning fast with the footpedel and mobydick live is just makes you say wow. and pearrt is a genious too. He is very technical. they are all good but i think pert is over al better.

Peart. I saw a couple of his solos and I was amazed. Although Portnoy is the best in my opinion

From the three on offer, it has to be Peart, but my favourites will always be Collins and Bruford.

Neil Peart.
Gotta say I'm not really a fan of any of them though. Portnoy blows them all away in my opinion.
