Best Rock Drummers

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.

Someone else picked the same drummer with the same comment that I made (i.e. "...without a doubt"). Also, I checked the date and noticed it was written on my birthday in 2006. Eerie!

Steve Gadd is another name that should be on this list with all the work he has done. Two just phenomenal players here..
