Who in your opinion was/is the best drummer.
For me there is only one - Buddy Rich.

Yup, Buddy Rich.

my vote goes for Gene Krupa

YouTube - Drum Solos - Gene Krupa vs Lionel Hampton vs Chico Hamilton

Rock..Keith Moon.. The Who
Big Band..Eric Delanie

For me the best drummer is onlyfairly recent Travis Barker from Blink182 and +44,Just hope he gets over his injuries from about 3 weeks ago wher he badly burnt in a plane crash.
YouTube - Travis Barker RARE DRUM SOLO!

Born 22 may 1924 a brilliant drummer but out of his league.Played at Springhill Club some years ago.
Last time I saw him was in Benidorm.

I don't like it when debates like this turn into 'favourite' drummers rather than the 'best'. My favourite is Zak Starkey, but in terms of drumming ability he isn't fit to kiss Buddy Rich's flip-flops.

Another favourite, Steve White. & of course Don Henley.

gene krupa was the best, and he only used a five drum, kit not like today's drummers.
