I've stayed out of the fray so far but what the heck...

First of all, I've written songs in 4/4, 6/8 and even 7/4, but I do believe
the western world is attuned to 4/4 - it just seems natural to us. Bonzo was
simply an amazing drummer - a quick view of the recent Zep DVD proves this.
He had incredible power in his wrists and I've never heard anyone else come
close to him playing the same material.
Some of my favorite drummers:

Ringo Starr
Charlie Watts
Will Rigby
Terry Chambers
Bobby Elliot
Jody Stephens (a master of tuning his drums)
Hal Blaine
Jim Keltner
Keith Moon
Mick Fleetwood
Simon Kirke
Bill Bruford
Al Jackson
Max Roach (the best of the lot)

A last choice would be the best drummer I've ever had the pleasure to work
with - Leif Bondarenko of the Primitons.
