I just saw the top prog percussionist in action... the mighty Carl Palmer.  My heart is still beating to his bass drum....

Agree with Peter,the one that has more influence is Bill Bruford, played in 18 bands, three of the big 5 prog, playd Rock, Prog' and Jazz, what else do you want?

Mow as a personal taste, I like Manu Katche's style very much and a non prog' drummer  Fergal Lawler from Cranberries, he's outstanding even if you don't like the music.

Have not heard of the last three in the poll. Dont know where I've been all these years, but these strike me as unusual choices

I voted Phill Collins.

I would agree that Bill Bruford has been influential, but to be honest Neil Peart would win any 'best drummer' polls IMO.

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Pray tell me in their long and rich careers, what recordings makes you think the majority of Michael Shrieve and Airto Moreira recordings (as leader or session player) are Progressive Rock? And whilst you are comtemplating that, consider why you have ignored  Nana Vasconcelos, Zakir Hussain and Trilok Gurtu (how many times has Gurtu been voted top world percussionist, e.g. by Downbeat magazine)?

 

Dallabryan I think you are taking the piss - will you kindly replace it, flush the toilet , and wash your hands before leaving this place of convenience.

Bruford broke down many many doors. He's performed in numerous genre's and has never been stuck in any groove. Jazz, Fusion, Rock, avante-garde... constantly evolving and pushing boundaries.

Peart & Bruford

Some times the obvious answer just happens to be the correct answer. Nothing to choose between the two, but on all known evidence (interviews etc) Peart has been the most influential drummer over the last 25 years.

As Cert would put it :that is not opinion it is a statement of fact!Smile

Of course that is in the opinion of only those drummer interviews YOU'VE read. I've read quite a few myself that regularly name Bruford AND Peart as an influence.

Both are in my TOP 5, BTW.

 

Oh, I'm about as good at drumming as you are at sit-ups. hehehehehe

make interesting points, I truly believe that for a
drummer to be the most influencal he needs to have
played on some of best progressive recordings.
