I’m not really a drummer, just a guitarist - but I play in a band with a great one. Great, bombastic drummers have always been my preference. I didn’t want to believe Rush was over when Neil retired in 2015. Now I guess I have to believe it. Something wrong with the universe today.

Let’s see some more kits and demos! And get some of these young kids into rock music again!

Quoted from xsvtoys:

For anyone old enough that they originally enjoyed the early ZZ Top albums on their quadraphonic stereo setups, you probably were appalled at the horrific editing of the drum tracks in subsequent CD releases. You might enjoy this web page. I have replaced all of my ZZ Top songs with his versions. This is nice work, sort of like Star Wars Despecialized.

Quoted from littlecammi:

I like jazz-rock music. Steve Gadd is my favorite drummer.
I also like John Guerin and Harvey Mason and several others. Dave Weckl is pretty good, too.

Dave Weckl is “PRETTY GOOD”?!?! Even I know his limb independence is unmatched. And I even had to look up what “limb independence”means!

Quoted from littlecammi:

Yes, Dave Weckl is really good. I just hold it against him that he had the much older Steve Gadd as a guest musician on one of his CDs and "so you could tell their drumming apart" had Gadd play using brushes while Weckl used sticks. Great drummer but a dick move. Of course, Gadd can make anything sound good, like when he played "boxes" on a cut of the first Rickie Lee Jones CD.

LOL did not know about that. Apparently he’s not heard the Roach vs Rich album where you ABSOLUTELY can tell the difference
