Best Rock Drummer Ever?
- Thread starter The Tradition
- Start date
Here is one most of you have never heard of Longineu W. Parson III. His dad is a word renowned jazz Trumpet player. Clip below is him wailing on a real small kit playing small club with dad’s band. Always impressed by his speed and different beats he got out of small set up vs those flashy guys who have ridiculous setups, as if the goal is how many different percussion instruments you can hit. He was the drummer for yellowcard and I was always impressed with his drumming speed wise.
good example of his solid yellowcard work.

Glad to see this thread resurrected. Upon further review, I prefer:
Alex Van Halen
John Bonham
Intensity is where it's at for me.

1. John Bonham
2. Ginger Baker
3. Keith Moon
It doesn't matter after that.

The best drummer & lead singer has to be Don Henley right? Not necessarily because of his drumming ability but the dude has a voice of an angel (IMO).
If it was, Levon would be in a class by himself. I don’t even know who would be second. Don Henley? Phil Collins? Whoever it is, they’re a distant second.
Saw his son drumming for Hagar a couple years ago. Not his dad but more than solid.
