Here's a interesting website that lists all the great drummers, both jazz and rock:

Hellerfi jogged my memory of seeing Buddy Rich on the Johnny Carson show several times- he wasn't a rocker but he was one of the greatest drummers that ever lived (quite possibly the greatest).

When the thread said Rock Drummers I did not include other genres, but I must tip my hat to the greatest soul r&b drummer of all time (former James Brown drummer Jabo Starks "pronounced jab-o." His incredible riffs and beats have been sampled and copied so many times that they are taken for granted as every day beats- but he started the funk and soul beats we hear now and in the past.

mike portnoy, Carter Beauford, mitch mitchell, Ian Paice, steve smith

No one has mentioned Kenny Aronoff and he should be recognized. Also, check out Rodney Holmes, he is simply incredible.
