"Use Me" is one of the best drum grooves of all time. That song really gives off a special vibe and has the perfect mix of genre.

When I saw this list, first thing that came to mind was “When The Levee Breaks” Seems citing variations of the Purdie Shuffle is overkill and just one of Purdie’s is enough? However the Porcaro and Bonham grooves are undeniable. “Fool In The Rain’s” groove does go beyond the Purdie groove for a moment

9:37 I was expecting When The Levee Breaks, it has coolest drum groove of all time

Yeah, that and Fool in the Rain are such iconic grooves. A few of these drummers had similar situations…groundbreaking grooves that imspired others. In some ways, Levee is a precursor to many other grooves…but I wonder how much of that is due to the production decision to include a bit of delay in the drum mix.

I’ve always loved the drums on “Good Times, Bad Times”

A few of my favorites are Stevie Wonder's Superstition, Sade's Sweetest Taboo, and Dave Brubek's Take Five.

He played on an 1988 album by a Scottish band by the name of Love and Money. The album is called ''Strange Kind of Love'' and was produced n USA by Gary Katz who produced Steely Dan. It is a very fine record and they were touted to do great things but it never happened. But the drum sounds and playing on that record are both magnificent. The songs are straighforward and he just keeps it simple (well it sounds simple). Nevertheless, the drums are a real focal point of that album. I must've listened to it 100 times and marvelled at the assured playing before someone told me the original drummer went home and they flew Porcaro in for the whole album. It sounds so fresh and timeless even now. On the subject of groove the title track is worth a 5 mins of anyone's time. Axis of Love is great too.

1) Yuval Gabay w/Soul Coughing the song is Idiot Kings from Irresistible Bliss. 2) Omar Hakim, w/Sting, the song is Shadows in the Rain from the Blue Turtles. 3) Bernard Purdie again with Josie. 4) Vinnie C. again w/Sting Don't Know Nothin Bout Me from Ten Summoners Tales. 5) Steve Gadd - 50 ways.

@@craigberry4051 I totally agree the Amen should have been here. Even if you arbitrarily leave electronic beat-makers out of the "people that were inspired", any drummer that plays DnB was influenced, like Jojo Mayer, Johnny Rabb, Louis Cole, etc.

Well that isn’t a beat that’s used for the whole song though. I’m not sure if it could technically be considered a drum groove by Beato’s standards

Sure there are plenty of grooves that could make this list, and it’s difficult to narrow them down. However, I think you did a great job of picking out some very important and influential grooves!

Yeah, Im not a drummer nor a musician, but have finwly tuned ears and if I had to create my own list without seeing Rick's, there would be a lot of overlap if you compared the two. Personally, Late in the Evening would be at the top. That song warps my brain whenever I hear it and the groove is to die for!

As always Rick, informational and entertaining

According to Ringo, we've all played "Come Together" wrong. He said, being left handed he had to play that roll from low tom to high tom. What we thought we heard, is not what he played...

And the groove, of that song, is in the verse, and it's a single drum. He's riding on the floor tom, just playing that, one-handed. So, so simple but just the right rhythm for the song and it grooves so well.

"Superstition," "When the Levee Breaks," "White Room," Paul Revere and the Raiders' "I'm Not Your Stepping Stone," and gotta have something from Bill Ward. Probably "Wasp/Behind the Wall of Sleep."

Rick, very well thought out list. I think you accomplished your goal with the influential angle. Well done..!

I believe that Manu Katche's groove on Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer coupled with Tony Levine's killer bass line deserved a spot on your list. "Steam" is another PG song with a similar bass-drums groove. It's so addictive and memorable.

A few that come to mind after seeing your list: 'Behind the Wall of Sleep' - Black Sabbath 'Suck My Kiss' - Red Hot Chilli Peppers 'Wicked Garden' - Stone Temple Pilots This one might not be that special, but I love jamming to it, 'State of Love and Trust' - Pearl Jam 'More Than a Feeling' - Boston Lastly, 'Trampled Under Foot' - Led Zeppelin

Clive Bunkers groove in the 1969 Jethro Tull song, "Nothing Is Easy, " is very similar. Mitch Mitchell was a great and influential drummer in his time. He did some great work on the Hendrix tune,"Third Stone From The Sun, which appears on the same album as "Manic Depression."

@@FL8mileshigh1 I maintain that the Experience was the world's first fusion band, as much because of Mitchell as Hendrix -- Up From the Skies, Manic Depressions, Third Stone from the Sun, and If 6 was 9 all have heavy jazz influences.

Love the Home At Last groove. During the chorus, Purdie also opens the hats for the notes on the third partial of every triplet, and it just feels so good. It's very difficult to keep those little sizzles consistent and light enough that the groove doesn't sound busy.

You are great, your first 3 grooves, shuffle, are unique and your no 1 of Aja, one of the best album ever, deserved it, "home at last" and no 2 the late Bonham and no 3 the late Jeff Porcaro, always loved this shuffle. So a good choice Rick, Top 20 grooves.
