Moby Dick
Toad
Rat Salad

Which track from KISS?

Peter Criss wouldn’t make my top 10, not for lack of a love for KISS… there’s just too many crazy talented drummers who have been recorded in the last century.

I mean, pick ANY Buddy Rich solo. Or Gene Krupa. Or Art Blakey, or Elvin Jones. Etc etc.

Then you have the metal guys. Mario Duplantier puts out a solo every year that continues to push the boundaries of what I think can be done on a kit.

And then there’s Neil Peart… and half a dozen other from the prog ilk.

I said *recorded*, not saying drumming was invented in the last century (though certainly the trap kit is modern)

How about Gene Krupa, Max Roach, Buddy Rich, Jimmy Cob, Elvin Jones, Joe Morello and so many other unknown jazz drummers through the ages..... and pay attention to the jazz band drummers.

Here are a few random videos ..... of course YT will plaster 2 commercials before each one.

















and for you old timers, here is the drummer that should have been mentioned ......
