Fave drummers of all time

I'm probably going to forget to list a few, but just off the top of my head...

Mitch Mitchell
Terry Bozzio
Keith Moon
John Bonham
Ginger Baker
Billy Cobham
Gene Krupa
Neil Peart
Bill Bruford
Butch Trucks
Jai Johanny "Jaimoe" Johanson
 
Haha :D I just noticed that I had put Bill Kelliher as a drummer. Ofcourse I know that Brann Dailor is the drummer. I must have been up late when I wrote that :D
 
funny you should mention Jimmy Charaberlain as I was listening to Placebo`s debut album earlier and drummer Robert Schultzberg sounRAB very similiar, sadly he only featured on their debut album.
 
Dave Weckl is a monster, primarily jazz though.

Probably a relative unknown, but Sean Reinert is absolutely awesome. He played with a band called Cynic in the early 90s - their "Focus" record has some of my favorite metal drumming ever on it.

He went on to play with Aghora and some of the Gordian Knot stuff, none of which approached Cynic's awesomeness.

Johan Langell, original Pain of Salvation drummer, was great too. Like a tasteful Mike Portnoy.

one of my fave drummers woz bj wilson of procol harum, he woz very busy, like moon woz.
it really annoys me when ignorant people put ringo's drumming down. you don't have to be keith moon to be a good drummer. i think becoz of ringo's happy go lucky nature people rubbish him. listen to musos and other drummers opinions on him, i've only read positive ones.
 
i'm gonna have to go with John Bonham and Keith Moon. with Neil Peart close behind them. I love jazz drummers to, but since this is a rock forum, i'll leave them out.
 
Tim Yeung. That guy is pure skill. Chris Adler comes in second. I personally think Joey Jordison is a little overrated. Oh, I know! The drummer from AC/DC with his ever innovative *bass* *snare* *bass* *snare* in EVERY song.
