yeah, jojo is amazing, but I have no respect for guys that try to imitate a machine, it's regressive.

very unique in the way he tunes his kit, and his cymbal selection, up there with Clark.

Ball of fun too, saw him on a clinic tour not to long ago. Definitely my favorite drum personality wise.

[Mr Calvin Oscar]

hmm... i've never even heard of him, but i solo a lot like him...

[keagan]

look him up on wikipedia. He has worked with A LOT of big names.

Good thread keagan!

A lot of my favorites have already been mentioned -- Akira Jimbo, Art Blakey, Jojo Mayer (I don't know how you can knock him keagan he's one of the best drummers on the scene right now and no one in their mind will argue that), Steve Gadd and others..

A few people no one has mentioned, that I'm shocked about:

Dave Weckl:

Dennis Chambers:

Keith Carlock:

This guy's a monster.. There aren't many people around that can just solo on a groove like he can.

i know he's been mentioned, and i ain't sayin he's the best or has jazz chops or anything, but chamberlain is one of the few rock guys of his era who i feel really adds shit to the music

at his best he makes his presence known without overpowering the track

The best drummer I've seen live is Jarle Vespestad from Supersilent but I'm big fan of the dual drummers in Do Make Say Think.

ELVIN JONES is (was RIP) the MAN.

Yeah Chamberlain is amazing for sure. And he actually does have jazz chops. Before joining the Smashing Pumpkins he was big in the jazz scene.

In any case, the guy's got great feel and I think he's a nice change of pace from all the similar rock drumming out there.
