Five...Six...Pick Up Sticks...Who is Your Favorite Drummer of all Time?
October 16th 2006 14:42
This should invite some pretty impassioned responses. People can respectfully disagree about guitarists, vocalists and lyricists..but everyone is pretty damned serious about their pick of a drummer.
I think...no I KNOW...that the greatest drummer of all time, without a doubt -(just trying to add to the argumentative nature of this post)- is...
RICK ALLEN of Def Leppard.
The man had one arm, man. Seeing as how every Def Leppard song is heavily dependent on the drums, No DENYING IT...(again..just want to set the argumentative edge here...)
Come on...who's your pick and what song sets them apart?

Ian Paice - Deep Purple - "Black Night"...hands down! AND without a doubt!
Charlie Watts - Rolling Stones - "Undercover of the Night" (hmm...got a nocturnal theme going on here)
Kitaro - he plays Taiko Drums...does this count? It should, the man is incredible.
And most definitely...Cindy Blackman. She plays drums for Lenny Kravitz but is a respected perscussionist in her own right. The woman is too TOO cool.

Love the Cindy Blackman reference. Awesome comment...but you would be wrong, unfortunately...it's most definately Rick Allen. *Wink*

Okay...it was the one-armed man!
Rick Allen is worthy...and damn, sugar, seeing as I can only just play 'Take 5' with 2 hands, the fact that he drums with left foot, right hand...out of this world amazing.
He's not as cool as Cindy though...
Last Word.

You know, I have thought about your comment all day for some reason...I love that you are obviously impassioned about music. I do thank you for accepting the truth about drumming ability. Coolness factor will be discussed on another post!
Can I just say that the general proximity, in which Cindy finds herself, on a regular basis, in regards to Lenny Kravitz makes her VERY cool? LOVE him..
(love his ass.)
(VOICES! That was NOT very musically snobbish of you...terrible...)
so sorry, my apologies, truly.

Do come back, and I hope you don't mind but I find myself wanting to call you Devlish...I think it suits.

There was no acceptance of truth here. I allowed you Rick Allen.
And tis Cindy who gives Lenny cred. Let's not forget he was once Romeo Blue... I mean..hello? And he went out with Nicole Kidman...I mean..Hello???
Sorry Voices, his hair gets in the way of his ass...

Nice mention...nice, nice, nice...can you at least acknowledge Rick Allen? I feel compelled to mention, again, that he had ONE arm.
This is a man who so loves music...who is so much an artist that rather than give it up, he learned to play again. He invented drums that would allow him to play although disabled...the man is a god. This is all I am going to say...I respect your opinion. (just as soon as you fully admit that Rick Allen...oops..sorry about that.)

I was remiss in my earlier comment and forgot to mention that I do believe Rick Allen to be a very worthy choice. One arm and the guy can still drum up a storm.....also I did have a very strong love of Def Leppard growing up.

Uhmm. two things.
First, your picture scares the shit outta me, which I suppose is the point but honestly...well done on that.
Second, nope. I admit, all good choices. If it were not for the fact that they all have the use of two arms while drumming, I would seriously make them contenders. Unfortunately, Rick Allen HAS ONE ARM...(ahem)
Ok...here is an exercise for all of you who have not selected Rick...Tomorrow, no matter what, you are only allowed to use one arm for everything. No perverted questions, I mean EVERYTHING. Then, at the end of the day, I want you to pound out "Pour Some Sugar on Me". If you can do that and not break a sweat, then I will concede defeat on this one...

Being a drummer for about 6 years playing in a few rock/metal bands it's a tough choice I've come to this conclusion.
Honourable mentions also go to:
Daney Carey - Tool
Igor Cavalera - Sepultura/Soulfly
Thomas Noonan - 36 Crazyfists
Mike Portnoy - Dream Theatre
Pete Sandoval - Morbid Angel
Matt Cameron - Soundgarden/Pearl Jam

Comment by Hellvis

For me the best drummer is a toss up between Jim White from the Dirty 3 and Dale Crover from the Melvins.
Jim White is great because his drumming can sound like anything from rustling leaves to crashing waves. He's a beautiful player who actually plays around the melody, rather than just providing a backing, and is on equal footing with the other members of the band.
Dale Crover is just the heaviest, meatiest drummer in existence. Sure, there's black metal guys who can play blast beats and stuff, but I've never heard drumming as heavy, deep, and voluminous as this guys'.
An honorable mention has to go to Dave Lombardo, too. Yay Slayer!
P.S. I'm glad you mentioned Gene Krupa, John Doe. That man was the tits.

WIth all due respect, back the hell up on Rick ALLEN...you can tell him apart from Ricky Martin as Rick Allen is not openly latino. What he does in his private life is certainly none of our busines...but still.
Do not disrespect our respect, which has to do with the fact that he didn't lose half his talent when he lost his arm. That should mean something...so no disrespecting Rick like he is a charity case or something. Do you think that any of the people you have listed can be fairly measured against him? They have twice the physical capability and probably only close to the amount of talent. That is the point I was making...

Comment by Hellvis
Earache Hotel
Just so you know, I was only playing with the Ricky Martin thing. Trying to take the argumentative edge you've set and run with it.
My argument is that the best drummer shouldn't be judged on what his/her physical circumstances are but the sound he/she creates. My comments may sound harsh, but I'm simply comparing him to all other drummers in the world who I've heard, and personally I don't find him all that great.
I think as someone with a disability, he wouldn't want to be praised for his drumming just because he only has one arm. He'd want to be praised for his drumming because he's a fucking great drummer.
Would a disembodied but still-living head in a jar, that plays the drums with its teeth, qualify as the greatest drummer of all time, just because of its exceptional circumstances?
What is it that you like about Rick Allen's drumming that isn't related to the number of limbs he possesses?
Sincerely,
Hellvis
Comment by The Voices in my Head
The Voices in my Head
I responded to your post before, but I can't see it if it posted, which has happened twice with me. So, at the risk of repeating myself with some major editing...
I kind of suspected you were joking about the martin thing.
Just as we should not give someone praise for their talent simply due to their disability, we should likewise not assume that praise for that person's talent stems from pity. It would also be degrading, wouldn't you agree?
As for Rick Allen's drumming, what is it that I love? Well, I mean, I'm just a 3rd tear snob but...I guess it would have to do with the way it resonates...You can hear it without listening to the cd. That is what you remember about Def Leppard songs, or at least, speaking for myself. I get off on someone being part of the background...and that is what you remember...their performance. This, by the way, has nothing to do with the fact that I am a behind the scenes peon at work..

Go now. The essays must be posted here no later than Thursday.

Sorry to be the proverbial cuckoo in the love nest, but thanks to replying to my post. I'm not usually that much of a prick (honest), but I'm glad you described what you like about Rick Allen's drumming in a bit more detail. This is the sort of thing I like sharing with other people when talking about music. Sorry I had to be such a turd to get to that. Still, I stand by (most of) what I said; although which bits I'm not entirely sure.
And thanks for the compliement on the horns. They get some funny looks, especially when I'm in church.
