Louie Bellson. First person I saw use a double bass set. I thought that was really cool and different. Then all the great progressive rock drummers of the 70's.
Guilty as charged here...OK, this may be corny, but name first drummer that made you think "wow" (or whatever..) drums are cool..
This really dates me, but Phil Ehart of Kansas. I always thuoght my fellow 8th grade students were nuts to think Neil Peart was a better drummer simply because he appeared to drum 'faster'...
Actually, I am a born again fan of Ehart. Still with Kansas. Still pretty awesome at what he does.
Comments, quips, quibbles? Thanks and have a good day
Sean Reinert (Cynic) way back when I was still playing guitar in high school.
and then more recently was Danny Carey, that sparked the interest in actually learning to play the drums.
Love this thread. You might as well ask how old are you and what kind of personality did you have as a kid
