I understand these lists are subjective, but how could Charlie Watts be ahead of ANYONE? Especially GENE HOGLAN? Not to mention Rockenfield and Grohl.

how he (or many on that list) could be ranked above Mick Fleetwood is beyond my comprehension.

Who put this list together? Is this another attempt by Rolling Stone to get people's attention?

I'm at least happy Hoglan made the list at all!!!
This list looks a WHOLE lot better than the guitarist list, but maybe that is just because I play guitar myself and am a lot more picky.

Rick Allen should be top 10. I don't care if he's not technically insane. The dude is the world's only one-armed drummer. Top 10.

These lists are total S***! Some of those don't belong there at all while there is a lot missing. Its all just a matter of opinion which everyone has. I will state mine and say again that the list here is retarded!

I suppose this list couldve been more specific. It says Rock Drummers and I see tons of metal drummers in there. big difference.
I have a hard time comparing drummers because there are so many great ones with vastly different styles.

You know who I don't see on this list that should be...Cozy Powell. I also don't see Joey Kramer of Aerosmith, Roger Taylor of Queen, Lee Kerslake of Uriah Heep and Blizzard of Oz among others. Just an observation.

I heard this song from my brothers bedroom many decades ago. I knew the drummer was cooler than the singer.
