Rock and Roll Tribe

A Global Army of Veteran Rockers

One of my friends put it best--a drummer should not be a mere bystander, but driving the group forward.   Post your favorite songs that demonstrate this, but please, spare us the ten minute drum solos.

Good call, Juha. Talk about driving group forward! His biography is not playing in the band but 

 

Bill Ward.

 

Saw Zak Starky, putting in a long shift on  13/1/11. 1st with Jeff Beck, then Debbie Harry and finally with The Who.The guy didnt put a foot wrong.Over the period he's been playing with The Who his mannerisms have become more and more Moon like.

Keith was his godftaher, too.
Mighty Max Weinberg deserves a shout out on this list.

Ron Wilson. What would the following be without his stamp on it?


 


Lotsa people have performed this (on drums, on dashboards/tables or on air) later but he apparently pretty much wrote this in 15 minutes. 

Could Mick Fleetwood be in this discussion.  Always seems to surrounded

with great talent ... from the early days until the present.

Here's my suggestion, Black Rose by Thin Lizzy. Saw them last night in Manchester UK. Utterly, utterly awesome. Am learning to play the drums but so far am just about holding down a decent basic 4/4. Was inspiring evening.

My alltime favorites:

Jon Hiseman, Ginger Baker, Simon Kirke, Keith Moon, Ringo, Hal Blaine, Jim Gordon, Ed Greene, Tommy/Marky/Richie Ramone, Jerry Nolan, Bun E. Carlos, Carl Palmer, Phil Rudd, Chris Slade, Earl Palmer, all Talma Motown drummers, Al Jackson, Brannen Temple, Sheila E., ?uestlove, Bernard Purdie, Ricky Faatar, Rat Scabies, Topper Headon, Grant Hart, Dave Grohl, Taylor Hawkins, Josh Freese, Mike Kellie, Kenny Jones....
