first of all, when asked if ringo was one of the best drummers in the world, paul replied 'heck i dont even think hes the best drummer in the band.' so i would say john bonham, buddy rich, ginger baker, keith moon, neil peart and many others. they arent the best, but they are great. everyone plays a different style. you cant catagorize them all when some play jazz some rock and some metal.
LOL! That's pretty damn funny. I have never been all that impressed with Ringo's "skills" with the Beatles. I mean, I'm more impressed with some of the drum work that Paul McCartney did on his solo work.
I will settle this arguement right here and right now - there has been and never will be a better drummer than Animal from the Muppets Band Okay, now kill this thread.
ya but animal was based loosely on....????....any guesses.... was it .... KEITH MOON! ....hahaha Keith returns to the thread. (actually I really don't know if this is true but I believe it, because I need an excuse to hang on to my lame Animal t-shirt! )
