The best drummers are jazz drummers. There's no point in discussing it further!

 

The best drummers are Classical Drummers. There's no point in discussing it further!

 

 

Neither type can rock like Peart.

These are the type of lists that make people claim Neil is overrated. I love the guy, but he is not a better drummer than guys like Steve gadd and Vinnie Coulita .. It's annoying , cause it makes people almost resent Neil

He's the greatest Rock Drummer of all time. He's a bloody good Prog Rock drummer and can knock out a bit of jazz when the mood takes him.

 

Gadd and Colaiuta couldn't Rock a playpen.

Not so sure about that. Coulita in particular. The guys resume is huge.. I know he played on a Megadeth album a few years back.. The guy is a real chameleon , can play anything

I don't like these " who's better than who" type discussions , but what the hell..

 

Here is Coulita, Gadd, and Dave Weckl.. Sorry, but this type of playing is far beyond Neil, with all due respect.. I actually prefer listening to Neil over these guys, but yeah, they are overall far superior
