have not heard Ronnie verell ["animal"] but would have to prefer just about anybody to buddy rich who [I've chatted with musicians who had to work with him] was by all accounts a total SOB. I cannot separate rich's technical excellence from his abominable personality. and besides that, chick webb could [had he survived] drum him under the table any day of the week.

drummers-
buddy rich
or
gene krupa?

[btw, each thought the other to be the best]


You forgot the other "Animal": the drummer from Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem (aka the house band from "The Muppet Show". That "Animal" had a lot better personality. :mrgreen:

I'll take Gene Krupa, who had a slightly better personality.

It's also been my experience that most percussionists aren't even human :P

Florence Foster Jenkins or Anna Moffo?
