I don't think they do, especially Kenny Jones in this epic: if you don't want to listen to the whole track, fast forward to about 3:45

no they don't and if your drummer sucks, or is just mediocre, the band is not that great.
the only drummer who got great recognition was neil pert from rush.
got a great drummer, you got a great band!

He reported don't get the honor they deserve, Neal Peart gets lots of admire as He ought to. My suited 5 Criminally Underrated Drummers a million Carmine Appice This guy is a brutally effective as Bonzo, and ninety 5% as good at trick time signatures 2 Phil Collins between the main suitable Drummers on planet Earth. it quite is a shame that His Drum skills are continuously underrated merely by way of fact he released some undesirable Pop songs. 3 comfortable Powell This Rock Legend worked with very nearly everybody and alter into between the very few applicants being seen by potential of Jimmy website to swap Bonzo in Zep. 4 Micheal Shrieve The backbone of Santana for some years and likewise a magnificent metallic drummer as nicely 5 Charlie Watts Mick & Keith get all of the clicking in the Stones, yet whilst there replace into ever a extra appropriate backbeat Blues Rock Drummer that ever lived, i don't be conscious of who it may be.

As an example of the difference a top Drummer can make, compare the excellent contribution made to Hendrix's early stuff by Mitch Mitchell and the dross Buddy Miles served up on Band of Gypsies!

A guy walks into a shop and said to the female assistant "I want to play the guitar, so I want one with a strap and a plickie thing, oh, and a loud amp" "Hmm!" says the assistant "You want to play the guitar but I bet that you are a really a drummer, aren't you ?". "How did you know?" asked the drummer. "''cos this is a Fish and Chip shop" said the assistant....

The name John Bonham and his Moby Dick solo spring to mind.
Edit. Really like Larry Mullen Jnr's drumming on the track Where the streets have no name.

Far from it. Buddy Rich was the last drummer to get recognition and he pre-dated Rock.

What about that bloke from Def Leppard? He only has one arm!
Respect to Dave Grohl too!

This will age you-lol
None of the bands I like have drummers in them-just drum machines
2009-05-04 12:53:27 UTC
No, I do think they do, a prime example would be Dave Grohl (one of my all time heroes)
think Nirvana then think FOO Fighters

I always thought it was the drummer that all the girls fancied, sitting at his drums in his vest with his muscles all sweaty.....well it was for me anyway!

RE: Def Leppard, how the heck does someone become a drummer with one arm?!
