Re: who do u think is the most over rated drummer/drummers? There is sooo much more to drumming success and greatness than flash, blasts and speed.
Here is a small sample of the drummers that acknowledge that Ringo Starr was an influence to them:
Steve Gorman (Black Crowes)
Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater)
Phil Rudd (AC/DC)
Nicko McBrain (Iron Maiden)
Eric Carr (KISS)
Danny Carey (Tool)
Max Weinberg (E Street Band)
Dave Grohl (Nirvana/Foo Fighters)
Now I agree that technically he was not the greatest ever, but you can't argue the fact that his presence in music has greatly influenced today's drummers and their compositions. |
