Hey there drummer fans, I'm here to talk about 5 of the best drummers during their time, you'll probably notice that numbers 4, 3, and 2 are older.
Please feel free to comment on this article and give your opinion on who you think are the top 5.
Alright lets get started! XD (NOTE: Number 5-3 are not in order of which ones I think are better, I believe they are all amazing and that only the top 2 are superior drummers.
) 5.
Number 5 is recognized easily from his gigantic drum-kit ranging from some of the highest pitched tom-toms to even the lowest pitched floor toms, he filled in for Korn's drummer when David Silveria parted with band and played an AMAZING drum solo in I Will Protect You, ladies and gentlemen it is mister Terry Bozzio! Now mister Terry Bozzio's drumming can't be described in words as good as watching in person so head over to YouTube to his solo and other great work, like the one of him working with Chad Wackerman.
Their work is made up of so much talent and coordination and timing that I find it unbelievable that they can do this and in a way its actually relaxing.
So when your asked about talented drummers remember to keep this man in mind and I can't find a link to this video but my favorite video of him is included in "Bozzio:Live in Concert" not sure if you can buy it separately but its from the DVD "Bozzio and Wackerman: Solos and Duets".
So if you get the chance to buy that I highly recommend doing so.
That's it for Terry Bozzio.

Number 4 is a very special drummer for he was drumming in 1974 and still drums today, known for his unique drum solo, and was part of a 3-man group whose name is Rush, their song YYZ was featured in Guitar Hero 2, he's fast, he's got rhythm,but most of all he's got drums, give it up for Neil Peart! One of my favorite drum solos by this fantastic drummer is from the DVD "Rush in Rio", sorry I cant find the video for it so no links but I'd greatly advise buying the DVD.
In my opinion Neil Peart doesn't get enough attention, I mean we hear all about these total crappy artist that get completely overrated like Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus, but when was the last time we turned on the radio and heard anything about Neil Peart or Terry Bozzio? Moving on to number 3 3.
Don't let Louie Bellson's looks fool you for as old as he may be, he is one of the fastest and most important drummers in history, he was the drummer that introduced the double bass drum idea, he also brought in ideas of having more then 2 tom-toms and making bugger kits, without him a lot of today's music wouldn't exist, this man living to be 84 died in 2009.
See his solos on YouTube.
In my opinion we need to also give Louie Bellson more credit, I mean he is one of HISTORY'S GREATEST and MOST IMPORTANT drummers, not some 16 boy with the voice of a little girl **coughs Justin Bieber coughs** so next time someone talks about that little girl just play this card on them about Louie Bellson being one of the many great drummers.
Rest in peace Louie.

This man first played Jazz with a major group in 1937, he played drums til the he died in 1987, living to be 70 years old.
He's battled many drummers and even guest starred in the Muppet's just to battle Animal.
One of the oldest drummers and also the fastest, receiving the title of "The World's Best Drummer".
It it Mr.
Buddy Rich.
This is in my opinion the world's best Jazz drummer, and he is an outstanding percussionist, I especially like his battle with Animal of the Muppet's because it's great for kids to watch, and when you watch you see Animal just stop and stare at Buddy in awe, and in the end Animal being a sore loser throws at drum at Buddy which is entertaining for kids.
I just love this drummer so please if your interested in drumming and haven't heard of him you need to look him up.
Alright moving on.

Now this is indeed my favorite drummer, he inspired me to be a drummer, I love this band and especially their drummer, you might recognize him from his stage name "The Reverend Tholomew Plague " He played for Pinkly Smooth and Avenged Sevenfold, he died last December on the 28th at the age of 28.
R.
I.
P.
Jimmy "The Reverend Tholomew Plague " Sullivan, you will always be remembered.
This is in my opinion THE World's BEST Drummer.
All I have to say is look this guy up, the band Avenged Sevenfold that he played for had one of the worlds best guitarist and best drummer.
They're greatly talented and in 2006 won the Award of best drummer.
I want you guys to look him up, he may inspire you, so please look him up.
