Best? No clear cut winner. Where you fail is that you don't list Gavin Harrison on that list. He is certainly 1b to any other's 1a ranking.

at the 5:10 mark he hits legendary status. I read a while back that he created a method to make the drums sound like they are playing in reverse like spinning a record backwards, and that's what this moment it. It's really badass.

Jimmy Chamberlin should be up there with anyone.

Is all subjective. I love Carey, Rich, and Bonham.
Thomas Lang deserves a mention. His independence is sick.

Ginger Baker was as good as anyone

Hard for me to put him before Peart or Carey.
It’s hard for me to put those two ahead of Bonhman..

Peart or Carey does that in their sleep!

I think it was Bonham when I was a kid. I think it may very well be Danny Carey now. They both play in the particular style of drumming that connects with me.
I do like what Peart, Moon, Ward and, yeah, even on a good day, Starr all have to offer, but it would be hard for me to vote against Bonham or Carey in such a poll.

Danny Carey and it's not really that close imo

Not sure there is anyway of determining the best drummer of all time. There are so many greats that many folks have never heard of but have heard their work.
Jeff Porcaro, Bernard Purdie, Keith Carlock, Hal Blaine, Dennis Chambers, Johnathon Moffatt, John Robinson, Buddy Rich, Louie Bellson,....
I could add 100 more players that are all world class.

Exactly. It becomes a "this is my favorite band so this is the best drummer ever no comparison and it's not even close!!!!" pissing contest. The truth is there are many great ones that in reality you can't put one above the other. Style will dictate who you like better, but the difference in talent itself is not appreciable

Can somebody link the Buddy Rich video where he plays himself into a literal episode of Angina? Some show from late 70's to early 80's at some island resort I believe.
By the end of that solo his facial color is poor.
For me it is him and Peart. Neil Peart would say Im and idiot and it is Buddy.
Bonham is too much of a homer vote for me. I just love Zepplin.

This list is incomplete without Joe Morello. Bonzo was a fan.
eta: Buddy Rich and Morello were buds. There are videos of them having friendly competitions.

Off the top of my head, guys that are in a tier above him:
Tomas Haake
Gavin Harrison
Carl Palmer
Buddy Rich
Gene Hoglan
Terry Bozzio
Mike Portnoy
Jeff Porcaro
Bill Bruford
I'm certain I'm leaving off quite a few, as well, but I could go on all day.

That video is actually very meat and potatoes for Harrison. Anyone who thinks he is not in the class of Peart and Carey are just unfamiliar with his work.

Exactly. Porcupine Tree is not a well known band, so I get people are unaware of Harrison. When you listen to that piece blindly, you will hear how technical and well designed it is. He plays it so casually that watching him do it makes it seem less impressive than it really is.
I am sure Peart and Carey can play that, because they are at the top of the craft. My point is so is Harrison and quite a few others. Harrison deserves more recognition, because he is a master.
