chris. Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDTUr-fHwHI chad is so steady, has great taste and restraint and he has a little flash in him as well and that band is so in key with each other they never miss a beat. chad know that there is logic and not playing as much as you can let your music breathe that goes with every instrument you play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silenced Fred Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPAbjNT7nQY Glenn Kotche. The more I listen to his stuff, the more amazed I am. He can sit back in the pocket, and then let loose when need be. He is outstanding and the true example of a musician. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVOL! Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Flashy cats like Neil Peart and Herb Alexander are fine and I respect their insane skills, but I lean more towards pocket players or traditional play-to-the-song drummers. My all time favorites are Levon Helm Steve Shelly Glenn Kotche My exception to pocket players is Keith Moon (I love his work on Who's Next), although in any other band his drumming would not work. Then there is that perfect blend of playing in the pocket, playing to the song, and whipping out sick skils: John Bonham, the greatest rock drummer of all time. I love great jazz drumming too. The fascinating thing about being a drummer and songwriter and listening to jazz drums is how different it is from what I play. In rock, drums are the meter. In jazz, drums are color. If you can combine the two without sounding like a cheesy, fusion student, you are golden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SG FAN Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 John Bonham, the greatest rock drummer of all time. WRONG!! :) Kieth Moon is the greatest rock drummer of all time, case closed! Bonham wished he could be Moonie. Although, Bill Ward is my personal favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
