thizzellewashington Posted December 25, 2018 Posted December 25, 2018 All drummers are good in their own way except for Lars Ulrich. 1

Entre_Perpetuo Posted December 27, 2018 Posted December 27, 2018 Skip to the 1:30 mark. Clearly, having no interest in The Carpenters on the principle that they sounded lame very nearly deprived me of hearing one of the most underrated drummers of all time. Yowza! 2
Lurkst Posted December 27, 2018 Posted December 27, 2018 I think Micky Dolenz deserves more respect. He wasn't even the best drummer in The Monkees... 1

Thunder Bay Rush Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 Yes, I've seen videos of Karen Carpenter playing big band, swing, jazz kind of stuff... REALLY good and surprisingly so. She played traditional grip mostly, doing cross overs, wicked double stroke rolls... some of the very important rudiments - proper drumming. Most people got to know her as a singer, but she was an excellent drummer. 1
Thunder Bay Rush Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) I've mentioned this before on TRF, but's worth going there again. I've seen hundreds of videos of the best of the best drummers. Some of these people scare me they're SO good. But, there is one, that I believe is miles above ANYONE ELSE and that is Thomas Lang. The only people who have heard of him are drummers for the most part... he's not in a big name band playing stadiums or arenas. He plays as a gun for hire with some of the biggest names. But, if you watch some of his drum solo videos on youtube, you will be stunned. I have NEVER, EVER seen any drummer do the things that he does. Not Buddy Rich, not Louis Bellson, not Ed Shaunessey, not Dave Weckl, not Dennis Chambers, not Steve Smith, not Bonham, not Brufold, not Palmer, not Peart, not Portnoy or Mangini. Tony Royster Junior might finish a close second. Edited January 8, 2019 by Thunder Bay Rush 1

Tony Royster Junior might finish a close second. Thomas Lang has incredible facility, but he's no Buddy Rich (or Joe Morello). His chops and independence are astounding but he's not terribly musical with them. I saw one of his clinics years ago. He dropped jaws, but didn't really teach anything other than "playing with your little finger extended is a little fruity." I also have one of his dvds. He's no Benny Greb!For my money, Marco Minnemann has chops for days, and plays musically. Mike Mangini is no technical slouch either. Give this a couple of minutes. It's pretty good.
