Any drummers you think do a particularly good job of this?

Russ Kunkel
Charlie Watts
Hal Blaine
Ziggy Modeliste
Richie Hayward

They come to mind. Although Hayward would occasionally go a little nuts


Man how can you bad arse solo drummers, and not mention Joey Jordison?

Derek Trucks will give you a solo that will blow your ears off. That dude is one badass slide guitarist.


I was just made aware that he is now an official member of the Allman Brothers Band. He's incredible; Duane would be pleased.

I watched him with ABB back in like 2003-2005 when I lived in the northeast. Went see them at the Beacon Theater 7 or 8 times while I lived there.

How is it that he is just now an official member?

Just a trend in music. For my part, I'm good with a guitar/drum solo provided it's timely and skillful.

Seemded like Edward Van Halen (incredible talent)could always make a guitar solo sing. For drums check out Billy Cobham or Carl Palmer.

He may have been for years, I just did not know this.

Thanks. I just recently "rediscovered" the Allman Brothers after finding one of their CDs in the cheap-o bin at Wal Mart.

Be sure to listen to ABB Live at Great Woods 1991 when they played "Revival".

Heard it at a restaurant this evening and had to find it tonight.

I disagree I think rock is still going and is still more popular than rap; however, rap has indeed gained popularity, but it is slowly dying now. There are no good rappers anymore ( that are mainstream).
