The vast majority of the people mentioned above were very well-appreciatated in their day - Dino Danelli, Jim Gordon and Jeff Porcaro, in particular, were some of the most highly-regarded players of their time. I will vote for Graham Lear, who I saw with Santana. Incredibly good player. Also - Clive Bunker, who played like a cross between Keith Moon and John Bonham, IMO. Check out Tull's You Tube video on My Sunday Feeling for a good example of his playing. BTW, Ian Anderson's outfit in that video is absolutely the most outrageous/ridiculous thing I've ever seen. And I've seen quite a bit. Tights, knee-high boots and a bathrobe thrown over the whole thing. Yet, it made sense back in '69 or so.
Name 3 under appreciated pop/rock drummers
Since the best rock drummer thread has garnered some interest, this thread could create some diverse and interesting respones. My 3 are as follows...
1-Gil Moore-Triumph-Being Canadian.
2-Jerry Shirley-Humble Pie/Fastway-Didn't sell enough records.
3-Roger Taylor-Queen-Overshadowed in his own band.
