    The first drummer to inspire me?

    Easy... that's my grandfather. His name was Douglas Cribbet. He played for many, many years. Even after losing one of his legs in the 60s. Amazing jazz drummer. He filled in for Boots Randolph's drummer a time or two. Had several of his own bands.

    The list of other drummers that have inspired me and influenced me:

    1. Blake Flemming - Just added a post for him in the famous drummers thread. Awaiting approval for my edited post at this point. Check him out, incredible.

    2. Sheila E - This girl can play. Even in a dress and stiletto heels. I love Latin drumming and this woman is completely incredible.

    3. Carter Beauford - You either love him or hate him, but the guy has a very out of the box way of thinking. Loved him since I was a young kid.

    4. Buddy Rich - That guy just does the damn thing. Traditional grip, anyone?

    5. Max Roach - Amazing.

    when I was about 6 or 7 I first saw this,
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rad-DKc-eA
    and this
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvZBCJozjZ0

    his timing is so good!!
    so I guess Chris Slade.
    But I have been inspired by lots of people since.
