drum solo heard 'round the world

Tweet

I am a musician myself, playing lead guitar in a band. But I am more fascinated with those fellows I had listened to who'd played drum solos recorded in media that were sold commercially internationally and hit the whole world with significant impact. These would be, for me, Mike Shrieve of Santana, Soul Sacrifice, Woodstock '69 performance; the late John Bonham of Led Zeppelin, Moby Dick, Song Remains The Same performance; Iron Butterfly drummer on Ina-Gadda-Da-Vida drum solo; Ginger Baker on the Cream and Airforce solos. There are a lot of new drummers I've seen these days that are so good but otherwise did not make an impression as the previous others did. There's this video clip I downloaded recently with this 12-year old(as announced, wonder when it was made, hmm) Tony Royster Jr. and he is incredibly amazing by today's adult standards. Are you a musician yourself and might have some other performing musician past or present worthy of mention?
