*Phil Collins shouldn't be included. He is a good drummer but not among
the best (talent wise, though he fit in great with the songs)* I went with Bill Bruford because I love his work in later day King Crimson (though I think Peart is as good as a drummer.) ------------- One likes to believe In the freedom of music But glittering prizes And endless Compromises Shatter the illusion Of integrity |

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)

I think you're both crazy ( I think alot of people don't realize just how good he was with Genesis because he's mixed super quiet. If you pay close attention to his drumming, you will be amazed.) ------------- "Can't you feel our souls ignite? Shedding ever-changing colors,in the darkness of the fading night..." -Genesis |

Since Collins isn't here, I voted Bruford, who is amazing as well. -------------

Out of this list - Terry Bozzio. I'm very surprised at being the first to vote for him here. The guy played for Zappa, UK and Fantomas, among others. I also heard can play the melody for a ballet on his drumkit - with all due respect to the other drummers here, I can't really see them doing this (well, maybe except for Peart). ------------- "In war there is no time to teach or learn Zen.

The “king” of that list by decree is the multitalented Bill Bruford. I’m listening now "Cloud About Mercury" (1986) – David Torn, Mark Isham, Tony Levin & Bill … Amazing album.
