Inspriational Drumming
onewheelwizzard:
Give him Ginger Baker (Masters of Reality's "Sunshine on the Sufferbus" is a favorite) and Bill Ward (just give him "Paranoid"). I've got plenty more suggestions but not for now.
sjbrot:
Let's give some love to one of the best lady drummers out there, Janet Weiss. If hearing her stuff doesn't inspire you... then I guess it not quite your type of music.
Now that I think of it, anyone's who's worked with Fridmann are usually awesome drummers. Jason Schwartzman of Phantom Planet is a personal favorite, and Steven Drodz of the Flaming Lips knows what to do behind a drum kit.
timehat:
--- Quote from: Martin ---Drummers that I like are Danney Carey (Tool), Martin Lopez (Opeth), Jon Theodore (The Mars Volta), Matthew Martin Bajda (Funeral Diner), Stewart Copeland (Police, Oysterhead), Ben Koller (Converge), Bill Bruford (King Crimson, etc.), Andy Ward (Camel), Tomas Haake (Meshuggah) and Gavin Harrison (Porcupine Tree), and so on.
King Crimson - 21st. Century Schizoid Man
--- End quote ---
Actually, Bruford did not play on that song since he came into the band a few albums later. I believe that Michael Giles was the name of their original drummer, and he is seriously a rocking kit-master indeed.
Since I didn't see them mentioned, I will champion the names Morgan Agren (Fredrik Thordendal's Special Defects, Mats/Morgan, Frank Zappa), Billy Cobham (Mahavishnu Orchestra, solo work, lots of other stuff I can't remember), Dustin Donaldson (Thought Industry, I am Spoonbender), and Chad Wackerman (Allan Holdsworth, Frank Zappa).
Luke C:
Get some Dream Theatre.
Oh and some Virgil Donatti (sp) he is one hell of a drummer.
McTaggart:
Seconding the Flaming Lips.
Also, Four Tet. Okay, I know the percussion is all loops and samples and things, but it's still incredible.
