Name three of yours the most favourite drummers

#1 Buddy Rich
#2 El Negro Hernandez
#3 Dave Weckl
Runners up:
Terry Bozzio
Carter Beauford
Peter Erskine
Joel Rosenblatt
Max Weinberg (don't laugh...he's amazing)

French contingent of the 70'd hippy bang Gong.The Lp is is called "Expresso" and a CD version came out and is probably out of print calleed "GADZOOKS".I was never the biggest fusion fan but it's AMZAZING.Have to go with Moon who was peerless in rock.Art balkey did amazing things that were made to sound simple (press rolls) etc.Other jazz drummers would be Max Roach,Kenny Clarke,and Roy Haynes.Olantunji was the first with "world music" (but here again check out Blakey's "African Beat").

Most musical players:

Larry Morello (sp? - Brubeck's drummer).
Ginger Baker
Tom Walsh who played percussive's with early "America" (for the money), but who is a monster R&B drummer.

Larry and Ginger are melodic while Tom can sneak in fifths that will stop a freight train (make your brain go CLUNK).

Dekay: Joe Morello

I mostly listen to jazz, hence my bias:
- Jack Dejohnette
- Paul Motian
- Jeff "Tain" Watts
