In my opinionA7X'S James " the rev" Sullivan was the best drummer ever even though hes gone u cant take away from his technique his skills and the energy he brought to the table as a drummer myself i try and emulate and incorporate some of things he did like the double ride thing the rev was awesome i believe hes was the best ever their wont be anyone that can replace him. best drummer ever

Danny Carey, in my opinion. Great drummer, quick, rhythmical, and

nearly inhuman with his accuracy and speed.

Neil Peart is the best drummer he is really good and is in the band Rush. I have seen him drum and he is really good. I think he does a great job

mainly im talking about rock and metal and i feel like the rev is the best ever his musical style proves it plus he was just a drummer he was a percussionist very amazing plus u didnt state why ur drummer is the best

In my opinion, Ringo Starr is the best drummer ever. He has a talent with those drums!

Rev just had this energy and his style of play that can be mimicked but never recreated the way he drummed was just pure amazing all around best drummer ever

What genre? For traditional, I'd say Gene Krupa. Jazz? Roy Haynes, hands-down. And as for rock drumming, nobody busted guts like John Bonham. He was a God of rock-and-roll drumming, and every other rock drummer on the planet (including Neil Peart) should be bowing to him before they sleep at night.
