I've seen most of them and by far the two that stand out are Neil Peart of Rush and Ceasar Z. of Golden Earring. For non-rock I would say it's a no brainer with Buddy Rich.
copeland and baker are percussionists, ringo and charlie Watts are drummers.......best 'unsung' rock drummers ever...Don Stevenson (MOBY GRAPE) and Mitch Mitchell
I'm sorry but I believe 'you' plural have it backward: I would rate Bill Bruford (listen to "One of a Kind"), Carl Palmer, Terri Bozzio and Pierre Moerlin (Gong) above Neil Pert and Bonham... however I suppose if we're talking ROCK as opposed to Prog. Rock or Jazz-rock then I can see your point.
