I know, I was just using the "difficult/technical/perfect=best drummer" as a point of contention in this debate....by no means do I think Peart isn't also musical. He is. Like I said before, I like Peart a lot...but, and I'm not accusing others of in this thread of this, but I always see discussions for "X is the greatest [band, or drummer, guitar player, singer, etc.] of all time", with the reasoning behind that distinction being the level of precision and technicality in their style of play.
As you just said in your recent post, there is such a level of nuance between different genres of rock music and what is required of the drummers that play them, it really is impossible to make apples to apples comparisons across those genres.
Speaking of a drummer being very minimalistic, but whose play fits the music absolutely perfectly...I give you all: Phil Rudd
