Favorite drummers to listen to

[jgziegler]

Ok, im sure this is not the first thread on the topic, but anyway, who are your top 3 drummers you like listening to? It has nothing to do with best drummer, or most influential on you, simply which drummers drum most pleasingly for you?

1. Mitch Mitchell (playing with jimi helps, but wow Mitch did some cool stuff)
2. Art Blakey (check out the album version of Night in Tunisia)
3. Bonham (yea i know, very original)

For me it's the drummers of Progressive Metal, bands like:
Pagan's Mind
DGM
Dream Theather
Evergrey
Symphony X
Ghost Ship Octavius
Circus Maximus
And many more, just some incredible drumming and a level of drumming I'll never reach.

[Pearl MCX Man]

Me mostly the Rock drummers of 60's-70's too many to list.

So many but in alphabetical order:

1. Jason Bonham
2. Josh Freese
3. Mike Miley

I'd also add Nick Mason among many others.
