Great list to create a great discussion. Totally belies the joke "what do you call someone who hangs out with musicians - - A Drummer" . Yeah, Bill Bruford probably is the greatest drummer that ever played prog. Shout out too for Andy Edwards who played for a short while in IQ and was in Frost and is currently in Rain, and has a fantastic You Tube channel where he mainly talks about jazz rock fusion , jazz and a bit of prog. Also you give an honourable mention for Andy Ward in the comments below but how about Dennis Clement of Camel's latest line up; and Ian Mosley who was the absolute right choice for Marillion; and then there's guys like Mel Pritchard of Barclay James Harvest and Graeme Edge of the Moody Blues - both never showy but hugely effective - and Tony Fernandez who played for ever with Rick Wakeman There will be loads more but if you were to include Mahavishnu Orchestra, Return to Forever and Frank Zappa under the umbrella of prog, then as well as the phenomenal Billy Cobham you could also include Narada Michael Walden, Lenny White, Steve Gadd and Vinnie Colaiuta. And then what about Tony Williams - culd Lifetime be regarded as Prog - I tend to think they could - or at least as progressive. And as for Ringo Starr - most of the drummers mentioned above and in the list would probably, if asked, rank him as one of the very best of all time and I think you can rightly inlcude him if you see the Beatles as being one of if not THE catalyst for progressive rock as a whole. A problem with all the above is who do you leave out of your list, as all of those are great? Then again lists are fairly meaningless apart for the person who creates them and as a means of engendering a discussion or debate, as we'll all have our own favourites, and I dont believe you can ever really say that person X is the best at Y as there are far too many parameters and variables by which the 'best' could be defined. Its still fun to do though.

Can't argue with your number one. I'd probably put Terry Bozzio a good bit higher - considering his work with Zappa and Mike Patton, he's about the only drummer I'd put up against Dr Bruford - but that's the fun of these lists, isn't it? Also good to see proper appreciation of Phil Collins: what with being a frontman, a singer and an actor, the brilliance of his drumming too often gets overlooked.
@michaelbaucom40192 жыл бұрын
As much as Kansas was all about Kerry Livgren, Steve Walsh, and Robby Steinhardt...Phil Ehart was the needed ingredient to bring it together...and is the main reason the current lineup still makes the 70s songs still sound fresh( not discounting Rich Williams on guitar)...and Phil is the band manager too...nothing gets on albums without his approval...Livgren calls him " the brand keeper " I'd add: Bob Siebenberg( aka C. Benburg, the band joking around) of Supertramp: he had to play varying styles-- Rick Davies' jazz-rock/jazz-prog, Roger Hodgson's prog-pop. Versatile player
@Mister_Jahn6 ай бұрын
Good list and you are right about phil collins and your logic on Bruford makes sense. Bozzio should be higher... I mean Zappa write the black Page for him and he sight read it. An important ommision is Stewart Copeland, his work with Curved Air, the police especially live (he changed how hihats are played by most of these drumners) as well as his excellent prog work with Mr Oysterhead. Drummers from Queen and Pink Floyd also Missing. My top is Peart, the musicality, lyrical/conceptual contribution but my #2 is Bruford... Everyone will differ a bit, that's the spice of life.

I would put Alan White higher. Even though I'm a huge Bruford fan, White is on my four favorite Yes albums. Also, I'd put Simon Phillips in the top ten. I've found so much great music just by seeing his name in the credits and buying it without knowing anything else about the album. A couple of at least honorable mentions: Vinnie Colaiuta (Zappa) and Jeff Porcaro (Toto could be pretty proggy in its early days). Finally, while it's hard for me to pick one favorite, going by the number of times he makes me say "holy shit!", I guess I have to put Gavin at #1; he's not only highly technical but also very musical -- you don't often get both at such a high level in the same person. Oh yeah, I also have to mention Albert Bouchard, partly because no one else has. BOC was not known as a prog band, but they had their proggy moments (closing connected suite on Secret Treaties, some of Specters and FOUO), and Albert (along with Buck, of course) had a lot to do with that.

Totally agree with your list, with some changes: OK, you acknowledged you can't argue with The Professor being at the very top. Bruford can live as number two. I would take Portnoy out. Sorry, no musicality of this beast. Yes, amazing technicality and a workalcoholic, but no musicality, and really harsh to see when playing live. Did twice and realized he does not contribute to music, but only his own ego. Thirdly, the largely overlooked great Andy Ward from Camel. A discrete, but with a high sense of musicality: the opposite to Portnoy. Ward deserves to be cited among the greatest. Bozzio seems too low for me. But... this is just me, and it's your list. Finally, Gavin Harrison will keep climbing on this list as time progresses. He is just amazing and will keep climbing on this list. Great video. Love your enthusiasm.

Yeah, those guys at the top are kind of interchangeable (except the Doctor and the Professor!)
Great list, in a Top 50 you can include Jaki Liebezeit, Pip Pyle, Richard Coughlan, Andy Ward, Ian Wallace, Virgil Donati, Nick Mason, Raymond Wilson, Hans Bathelt, Furio Chirico, Pierre Moerlen, Clive Bunker, Jordi Colomer, Guy Evans, John Marshall, Franz Di Cioccio, Curt Cress, among others.
Great list to create a great discussion. Totally belies the joke "what do you call someone who hangs out with musicians - - A Drummer" . Yeah, Bill Bruford probably is the greatest drummer that ever played prog. Shout out too for Andy Edwards who played for a short while in IQ and was in Frost and is currently in Rain, and has a fantastic You Tube channel where he mainly talks about jazz rock fusion , jazz and a bit of prog. Also you give an honourable mention for Andy Ward in the comments below but how about Dennis Clement of Camel's latest line up; and Ian Mosley who was the absolute right choice for Marillion; and then there's guys like Mel Pritchard of Barclay James Harvest and Graeme Edge of the Moody Blues - both never showy but hugely effective - and Tony Fernandez who played for ever with Rick Wakeman There will be loads more but if you were to include Mahavishnu Orchestra, Return to Forever and Frank Zappa under the umbrella of prog, then as well as the phenomenal Billy Cobham you could also include Narada Michael Walden, Lenny White, Steve Gadd and Vinnie Colaiuta. And then what about Tony Williams - culd Lifetime be regarded as Prog - I tend to think they could - or at least as progressive. And as for Ringo Starr - most of the drummers mentioned above and in the list would probably, if asked, rank him as one of the very best of all time and I think you can rightly inlcude him if you see the Beatles as being one of if not THE catalyst for progressive rock as a whole. A problem with all the above is who do you leave out of your list, as all of those are great? Then again lists are fairly meaningless apart for the person who creates them and as a means of engendering a discussion or debate, as we'll all have our own favourites, and I dont believe you can ever really say that person X is the best at Y as there are far too many parameters and variables by which the 'best' could be defined. Its still fun to do though.

Can't argue with your number one. I'd probably put Terry Bozzio a good bit higher - considering his work with Zappa and Mike Patton, he's about the only drummer I'd put up against Dr Bruford - but that's the fun of these lists, isn't it? Also good to see proper appreciation of Phil Collins: what with being a frontman, a singer and an actor, the brilliance of his drumming too often gets overlooked.
As much as Kansas was all about Kerry Livgren, Steve Walsh, and Robby Steinhardt...Phil Ehart was the needed ingredient to bring it together...and is the main reason the current lineup still makes the 70s songs still sound fresh( not discounting Rich Williams on guitar)...and Phil is the band manager too...nothing gets on albums without his approval...Livgren calls him " the brand keeper " I'd add: Bob Siebenberg( aka C. Benburg, the band joking around) of Supertramp: he had to play varying styles-- Rick Davies' jazz-rock/jazz-prog, Roger Hodgson's prog-pop. Versatile player
Good list and you are right about phil collins and your logic on Bruford makes sense. Bozzio should be higher... I mean Zappa write the black Page for him and he sight read it. An important ommision is Stewart Copeland, his work with Curved Air, the police especially live (he changed how hihats are played by most of these drumners) as well as his excellent prog work with Mr Oysterhead. Drummers from Queen and Pink Floyd also Missing. My top is Peart, the musicality, lyrical/conceptual contribution but my #2 is Bruford... Everyone will differ a bit, that's the spice of life.

You obviously know a thing or two…
I would put Alan White higher. Even though I'm a huge Bruford fan, White is on my four favorite Yes albums. Also, I'd put Simon Phillips in the top ten. I've found so much great music just by seeing his name in the credits and buying it without knowing anything else about the album. A couple of at least honorable mentions: Vinnie Colaiuta (Zappa) and Jeff Porcaro (Toto could be pretty proggy in its early days). Finally, while it's hard for me to pick one favorite, going by the number of times he makes me say "holy shit!", I guess I have to put Gavin at #1; he's not only highly technical but also very musical -- you don't often get both at such a high level in the same person. Oh yeah, I also have to mention Albert Bouchard, partly because no one else has. BOC was not known as a prog band, but they had their proggy moments (closing connected suite on Secret Treaties, some of Specters and FOUO), and Albert (along with Buck, of course) had a lot to do with that.

Totally agree with your list, with some changes: OK, you acknowledged you can't argue with The Professor being at the very top. Bruford can live as number two. I would take Portnoy out. Sorry, no musicality of this beast. Yes, amazing technicality and a workalcoholic, but no musicality, and really harsh to see when playing live. Did twice and realized he does not contribute to music, but only his own ego. Thirdly, the largely overlooked great Andy Ward from Camel. A discrete, but with a high sense of musicality: the opposite to Portnoy. Ward deserves to be cited among the greatest. Bozzio seems too low for me. But... this is just me, and it's your list. Finally, Gavin Harrison will keep climbing on this list as time progresses. He is just amazing and will keep climbing on this list. Great video. Love your enthusiasm.
