Great musicians who should have been famous except....

I'm throwing this out there as an example. My 16 yr old aspiring drummer son asked me if I had anything in the vinyl collection tonight... apparently the U Tube video tutorials finally got boring. He is really good and practices non stop but it was refreshing when he asked about ideas for sound. In a moment of 30 years past clarity I put on the B side of Van Halen 1984… Is Alex Van Halen the most under rated rock drummer of all time? And is there a better lead in to ANY rock vinyl side than that???

OP asked for more music?

Chris Botti - Live in Boston. One of the best bluray live recordings. Indian summer.

Supertramp - Crime of the Century. Intro School and so on..Impressing drumworks. You here it best on vinyl.

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath. Best intro ever from a new group?

Duncan Browne - Streets of fire (Simon Phillips). Hear it on U tube.

Phil Colllins band doing First of Frith live in Rome on U tube. That is hard hitting..

Does anyone know anything about the drummer Gene Chrisman?  He played out of Memphis as American Sound Studio's session drummer.

Gavin Harrison is his current favorite so I hope I assuaged all of the major VH concerns. What a great response to this thread, so appreciate it. Does Gavin hit your radar?
