Ginger Baker, Cindy Blackman, Art Blakey, Jess Bowen, Stewart Copeland, Taylor Hawkins, Elvin Jones, Keith Moon, Nicko McBrain, Chad Smith, Roger Taylor, Buddy Rich, Max Roach, John Bonham, Dave Grohl, Gene Krupa, Joe Morello, Madden Klass, Ringo Starr, Charlie Watts – and I’m sure I’ve left someone out.
