Re: best drummer of all time
I thought I posted this earlier in the day but must have forgotten. While he won't make a best of all time list, Jim Gordon could probably be in the top 10 rock drummers ever. Hugely undervalued session guy, killer right hand, and some pretty creative stuff when in a 'restrictive' blues tune. Listen to Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad (especially the live version from Derek and the Dominoes in Concert), and Have You Ever Loved a Woman for some good stuff with Clapton, plus the Steely Dan, Harrison, Delaney & Bonnie gigs.
I also think someone has to be high if they think Bonham was better at 'changing gears' than Peart.
