Xanadoood Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 In all seriousness, among jazz drummers, Neil isn't looked very highly upon.

Give me one quote where a jazz drummer is putting Neil down.....and even if there is one last time I checked Neil is not first and foremost a jazz drummer... Neil would kill them in the prog rock venue. Edited October 1, 2015 by presto123
thirteen Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Neil Peart is the only drummer I feel compelled to air drum to. Just can't help it.

Duke1 Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) Interestingly Neil Peart has received the following awards in the Modern Drummer magazine reader's poll:Hall of Fame: 1983.Best Rock Drummer: 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 2006, 2008.Best Multi-Percussionist: 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986.Best Percussion Instrumentalist: 1982.Most Promising New Drummer: 1980.Best All Around: 1986. Was also interesting to see so many top drummers (Jethro Tull's Doane Perry, Red Hot Chili Peppers' Chad Smith, Foo Fighters' Taylor Hawkins, The Police's Stewart Copeland, and Tool's Danny Carey) at Rush's final show of their R40 tour back at the beginning of August.

Neil would kill them in the prog rock venue. From the site Drummerworld.. Neil is respected as a rock drummer, but a LOT of drummers don't like his stiff style of playing.. And I'm sorry, but guys like Vinnie Couilata and Steve smith , both well versed, accomplished jazz drummers, could easily handle any Prog rock type stuff.. Playing and writing the parts. Neil is one of the great rock drummers, and I love his playing with Rush. http://www.drummerworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=90649
MMCXII Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 When I saw the thread title I knew it was about lack of groove.. maybe true in the past but last 15 years or so he's addressed this issue. This lack-of-groove "problem" he's had is related to his personality I think.. and I mean that in the nicest possible way! Lol

MMCXII Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) Neil Peart must be the most overrated drummer ever. He doesn't have any groove, he can't hit all the little fills he pretends are so important, and his overly busy style detracts from the great songs that Rush writes. I love his writings, recommendations, and nuanced political views, but his drumming is just atrocious. Wait so you love his writing but hate his drumming?? Unprecedented, that is!

Why is the division of musical genres so important? Personally, I don't think it is. But in any craft, there are elitists . And jazz guys do tend to be that way, not all obviously, but yeah, they do consider themselves above Rock drummers in every way. It's just the culture. 1
Xanadoood Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 I know this thread was made as a joke, but I do want to add... From my experience, talking to drummers , and on drumming forums, Neil was a huge influence to a whole generation of guys. Those guys , a lot of the time, ended up moving on to other styles, mostly jazz, and then were influenced by guys like Couilata, Gadd, Weckl, etc.. So they then look at Neil as more of a " beginner" type influence. They still respect and enjoy parts of his style, but also are quite critical because they moved on to more accomplished type players. That's my take on it.

EagleMoon Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 His lyrics are way overrated. What's with the stupid crap he writes about? Flying into a black hole? Seriously? 5
