Author Topic: Top 3 drummers (Read 4162 times)

Roast Beef Pecs · « **on:** January 31, 2020, 09:12:55 AM »

1. Buddy Rich

2. John Bonham

3. Ginger Baker

Any drummer who masters the repertoire of these 3 would himself become a top drummer.

(Notice Peart didn't make this list)

Ginger Baker - PERIOD.

Honourable mention, Joey Jordinson, Gene Hoglan and Tommy Lee ( yes, MC’s drummer ) is a hell of a drummer. Also, Richard Christie from the Howard Stern show is viewed by his peers as one of the greatest metal drummers ever.

Done first by Buddy Rich . . . Have a look at this kit -
