| Well, of course, many of the 'good old chaps' like Buddy Rich, Art Blakey, Gene Krupa and Louis Bellson. I think it's totally amazing how 'much' they could get out of a standard (compared to today) drumset.
Today I think a guy like Thomas Lang is really one of the greatest drummers. He's able to play tons of different music styles, which I admire very much since most drummers play one genre, and don't know how to play anything else - at least that's what I think. |
