I like to kid Side Pocket about who is the Greatest guitar player, SP says it is Knopler from Dire Straights. My reply is what about Clapton, B.B. King and lets not forget Chet Atkins or Glen Campbell. It is all in fun as this list of Great players is endless.
I have never seen anyone debate about who is the best Drummer. It might just be me but I never give a crap about the name of the Drummer in a band. Until today I only knew the names of 2, John Bonham of Led Zeppelin fame. John was rated the best drummer ever by Rolling Stone, I had never heard of him until I went to see Led in Nuremberg Germany. The guy was so messed up that he fell of the drum stool and broke his wrist 3 songs into the concert. “Sorry NO Refunds” was what I was told.
The second guy would be Phil Collins. Phil is a Very talented guy and I would say a good drummer, but not a Great one.
Here is a guy that who’s name I had to look up, and I am a fan of Rush, Neil Peart, I would add Neil to the list. Here is why”
