musical drummers...who are they ???

Stevecham, I may be wrong, but, I believe I read in Modern Drummer that Keith Moon did not play on the majority of that album. It may have been Kenny Jones.

Since this thread is really about great drummers in general, add Todd Sucherman of Styx to your list. Anyone who has seen Styx live or has heard of Todd will understand why he gets my vote.

jeremiah green of modest mouse is the modern day keith moon.

both are the embodiment of R&R in a drummer.

rhyno

Priz,

On Tommy? No way it's Kenny Jones, that's Keith Moon back in 1969. Jones never sounded that good and besides, the band didn't work with him until after Keith died.

forgot bonzo himself

Stevecham. I found the article in Modern Drummer. Kenney Jones tells MD that he did not “ghost drum” on tracks before Keith died. He also admits to doing the soundtrack to the film “Tommy”, stating that Keith was in the studio but “out of it”.
