Mitch could really jam. I also like what Buddy Miles got out of Hendrix.

I know, it's a contentious issue. You hear so many good drummers but you just can't decide who could be the second best.

I'm talking specifically about living drummers, who are still making music.

Here is some scientific data to help narrow down the search: http://tinyurl.com/og6ju

I don't even know where to begin!

If anyone says Lars Ulrich then I hope they get piles immediately.
We're doing second best because Peart is the best, obviously.

Second best Bill Bruford, and if you dont agree with me, listen to any of his Yes albums and see if you dont walk away tapping things.

Who the hell is Danny Carey?

Good drummers die young, everyone knows that - Bonham, Moon, etc.

Personally I would choose Ginger Baker, Bill Bruford, Nicholas Barker (Dimmu Borgir, ex-Cradle of Filth).

Of course, none of these hold a candle to the best drummer.
Yes, very good, very good.

All of your choices were excellent except Baker and Barker
