well buddy rich is a damned good drummer. although i must admit hes a dick. i was at a music camp (many moons ago) and he was playing or demonstrating something (been a LONG time) and when he didnt get the response he thought he should have, he flipped us all off...
other than that, i like Neil Peart of Rush. the man has a PhD in philosophy, writes most of the lyrics AND music and plays nearly EVERY percussion instrument known to man. i only say nearly because i DONT KNOW if he plays piano...
echo was pretty good too. for a machine. of Echo and the bunnymen HA HA HA...
