Ralonzo Posted August 22 Posted August 22 10 hours ago, Bray Wyatt said: Im a Keith Moon guy He's one of those guys that you can always tell when it's him. There's others. Stewart Copeland is like that for his work on the rides and that muted snare rim, super distinctive, plus he's hilarious. Also Bill Bruford - always loved his little quip about his time with the Crims. Surprised nobody's touched on Tomas Haake for a band with almost no melody being as famous as they have become strictly on the death throes twitching of fractal time signatures that are complicated for complication's sake. Ginger Baker is kind of doing his own thing no matter what band. In the Share thread I put In My Time Of Dying which is a cover mainly arranged by Bonham using his drums to indicate the entry points for bass, guitar and vox. Almost everyone from Birmingham hit the drums like they owed them money. Bev Bevan was a monster too. Speaking of the Birm gonna use a moment here to recognize Bill Ward. So underrated. Going back and listening to the Sabbath catalog (can't escape since Ozzy went), he was driving the whole wagon. Iommi's bootful-of-sludge riffs are the molten lead being poured from the parapet, but everything interesting in those Elite Eight albums is going on underneath between Geezer and mainly Ward. He was amazingly musical, while being able to match anyone power-for-power too. 1 1 Quote

He’s a studio musician for a lot of different metal bands. He doesn’t post a lot, and probably posts more on r/drums (Reddit). I enjoy watching him play. He’s so good at double bass. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C5XMURdJ-nG/?igsh=azY5bHA1bG9tN2Nw Edited August 27 by BillsFan4 1 Quote
K-9 Posted August 27 Posted August 27 “Best ever” debates are futile, regardless of subject matter imo. To me, all the “best evers” have a seat at the table. And it’s a round table. 2 1 Quote

He replied”I don’t know, you will have to ask Karen Carpenter”. Karen Carpenter had a drum off against John Bonham and kicked butt. Quote
