Levon Helm and it isn't fricking close. There are a ton of really great drummers that I love, but no one lays down an absolutely perfect groove the way Levon did. I once heard him described as "the only drummer that can break your heart." I think that sums it up perfectly.

Thanks for catching my omission.

And is it any question that he's the best "singing drummer" - (with apologies to Karen Carpenter).

To be fair, he did really well in the "singing drummers" thread we had a few months back.
