Stewart Copeland comes immediately to mind. "Ziggy" Modeliste is such just because he isn't known, by his own choice.

But the all-time champ, to me, has to be Tre Cool, the drummer for Green Day. I hate Green Day, but as I listen to their songs on the radio, I'm forced to conclude that he is the driving force behind the band. I know nothing of their evolution, but no one has inspired my toe-tapping and tooth grinding more than Cool did in the 90's.

The guy from The Dismembement Plan. So underrated I can't recall his name. I think it is like Easley.

ETA: yeah, Joe Easley

Don Brewer, Grand Funk Railroad. He and Mel Schacher, the bass player, were a great rhythm section.

I was going to say Stewart Copeland before I saw your post. He's awesome to watch in concert.

Although Rolling Stone ranked him the 5th best drummer of all time I don't hear many common folk talk about him too much.

Chris Layton.


I have followed him for a while, but I feel the average person does not even know who he is.

John French, the guy who played drums for Capt. Beefheart on Trout Mask replica. French was actually one of many drummers who played in the Beefheart Band. I mention him though, because ... well, shite, you try drumming to Beefheart songs.
