    1) John Bonham - Led Zeppelin
    2) Mikkey Dee - Motorhead
    3) Neil Peart - Rush
    4) Mike Portnoy - Dream Theatre
    5) James The Reverend Sullivan - Avenged Sevenfold

    Honorable mentions - Danny Carey (Tool), Travis Barker (Blink 182), Joey Jordison (Slipknot), Tomas Haake (Meshuggah), Dave Lombardo (Slayer), Jason Bittner (Shadows Fall)

    Now that's a decent list ! However I second Brann Dailor's nomination!!! looooove Mastodon

    No particular order James The Rev, Mike Portnoy, Dave Lombardo, Brann Dailor and Tomas Haake

    After lying in the dark last night, listening to Dark Side Of The Moon, I'd have to put Nick Mason on my list.

    Jon Bonham, Zeppelin
    Keith Moon, The Who (what a loss!)
    Neil Peart, Rush
    Stewart Copeland (influenced by Jazz more than Rock), The Police
    Michael Shrieve, Santana (the Highlight of Woodstock was his 10 minute drum solo)
    and honorable mention - Buddy Rich - although he was more Jazz, he played with some of the greats (L. Armstrong, T. Dorsey, E. Fitzgerald) I think he would have been on top of the R&R list if he' d had a chance . . . IMO
