Rock drummers: I’ve always liked Michael Shrieve of the band Santana. He could play rock, jazz, blues, anything. Heck but I thought if you were a true musician you can play anything. At least that’s what Grover Washington Jr. said.
Here’s a link for Michael Shrieve on youtube. The album is Santana - Cravanserai. Please see link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InlDs3C5Twk
And as far my favorite drummer and I think he was the best that ever sat in a trap set is Chick Webb. In 1937 Chick Webb’s band had a battle of the swing bands with Benny Goodman’s band. The drummer for Benny Goodman’s band was Gene Krupa. Chick Webb on the drums, ’cut’ Gene Krupa up so bad that Gene Krupa had to stop and give Chick Webb his props.
