Recently I have been listening to Vinnie Colaiuta a lot. He has such a great feel and plays some of the most difficult drum patterns effortlessly without sounding mechanical. The recent cds I acquired are Jeff Richman "Hotwire", Frank Zappa "Chicago 78" and Jeff Lorber Fusion "Hacienda". On Hacienda they perform a cover of Zappa’s King Kong with J L Ponty...very cool stuff.
But when it comes to Rock Drummer Only...my favorite is Neil Peart. But I love pretty much all the drummers mentioned. Bruford, Phil Collins, J Gordon, Jeff Porcaro, Baker etc
