We Have Had Nominations For Best Drummer, Now ......

It's a boring friday afternoon and i thought i'd add a little lipstick to the proceedings,Meytal Cohen bashing away covering the best band's record in the world.

 

Ringo should be in the list too.

 

'Percussionist' if you don't mind......I believe he is or has been seriously ill.

OK, understood.......well, nearly all modern drummers are over-rated.

 

Taylor Hawkins seems very under rated too

 

Him out of them Arctic Monkeys

Matt Helders.
a very lively chap indeed.

 

Most overrated
Keith Moon - He overplayed and couldn’t keep time.

Most underrated
Ringo Starr - Not even the best drummer in the Beatles, but their songs wouldn’t sound the same without him. Considering the considerable talent of the rest of the band Ringo still managed to bring something special to the songs.

 

Agree, I think percussionist is accurate, the guy that plays with Foo Fighters is no slouch, can't remember his name.

 

Ginger Baker puts both of them in the shade

 

Chris Layton! Most underrated and the best!

 

Most overrated.….. Phil Collins.
Most underrated.... the Gorilla that took over from him.

 

See post 26

 

Shelia E, Prince’s ex-drummer and sometime squeeze.



Nothing particularly spectacular in that clip but it gives me an excuse to post my favourite version of one of my favourite songs.




Solo.

 

Most over rated.

Most under rated.

 

loved that a little tight around the shoulders.......... plus too many teeth.

 

Keith was on a different planet all the time (delay).

 

Ringo has only really got the recognition he deserved in recent years.

Listen to this to hear the massive talent he has.

 

Rick Allen

 

Oh Hell yes !

And if you want a bit of spectacular , dig this ..... keep an eye on the drum kit around 9 minutes in
Sheila swaps the drum stool with C.C. Dunham ..... while they are still playing the song !!!
