Favorite Drummers
Featuring ride cymbals.
Jazz drummers of cymbal legato that their personalities are well displayed.
Max Roach There is no flashy performances, but his legato is just great and you will admit that his performance is the basic. You will understand the greatness of his performance more as you become more experienced.
Tony Williams From his performance, you will learn that it doesn't have to beat the same rhythm all the time.
Being expressively in rock music.
Ainsley Dunbar You can hear his delicate legato in a hard tune. My favorite is the first album of the Journey entitled "JOURNEY".
Neil Peart His performance of ride cymbals is clealy understood and played in paradiddle like Jeff Porcaro. He is the drummer of RUSH.
Being expressively by using the cup of the ride cymbal.
Alex Vanhalen His performance is very flashy and is effective in adding good rhythm to the tune. I like the early albums of Van Halen. He hits the cup of the cymbal with the middle of the stick as an accent.
Stuart Copeland He is the drummer of Police. His play is characterized in having a twist even in a simple rhythm. For example, he hits the cup of the cymbal with the tip of the stick. Also, he has a very unique technique of playing hihat and splash cymbals.
Being loud by crashing.
Don Brewer He is the drummer of Grand Funk Railroad. His wild performance is very well displayed in their first album, "Grand Funk". Never imitate his performance in incomplete manner.
