WELL AS FAR AS BIG NAMES GO I WOULD HAVE TO GO WITH ARRON SPEARS.

AND OUT OF PEOPLE HEAR FROM THE LOU. I WOULD SAY THIS GUY NAMED CORTEZ NICHOLS.

HE LICKS ARE SOOOOO PRECISE.

HE GO'S ALLLLLLLLLLLL THE WAY OFF BEAT INTO ANOTHER TIE SIGNATURE AND THEN LANDS RIGHT ON THE 1.

Ya'll might think im crazy but in my opinion...... I would have to say Calvin Rodgers and George McCurdy (spanky) they have those licks that make you say what in the heck made him put that where he put it. Im not talking about skill wise, but you can sit there and listen to one of thier songs and unexpectedly its a crazy fill that just pops up, but they get it to fit wit the music. Not challenging but un-ordinary fills I love it!!!!!!!!

[flash=200,200]Me personally, I saw Tony Royster has the greatest chops because his hands are so fast. Dobbie Powell & Chris Coles are sick, too. Dana Hawkins is also a good one. The best musician ever is God, because he allows us to possess such talent to praise him with. ;D


Whatever you accomplish, remember who enabled you to do it.

I have to agree with you on Vinnie. That dude is sick. Another good one is Nissan Stewart. He doesn't do really stupid chops, but he puts in those crazy off-timing beats.

Man, I like him ... wierd or not.

Zildjian Day London video was my introduction to him on my 27th birthday. Because I like voicings/ambient sounds/orchestration I identitfy with his playing. He is an artist pure and simple. I would love to hear the work he did with Mahavishnu Orchestra when they had him and Jon Luc Ponty (sp?) the violinist. I think that was the third or fourth line up of that band. I also love his mastery of polyrhythms. He also has some of the fastest hands/fingers in the world (my opinion).

Wierd chops? I'd say Spanky and calvin rodgers. Calvin's foot patterns are unheard of and rediculous. Listen to that song Leanin on God from Bishop Larry Trotter's cd. He's got an ill feel. Spank is just wierd all together. I listen to some concert clips and think to myself who comes up with that kind of stuff. Same thing wit eric tribbett and Chris dave, they aren't from here.

Funny u mention his name coz I remember him durin' an interview, sayin' dont' try to copy my style of play coz I'm a drummer/percussionist and he meant dat literaly coz when he joined Dave Matthews, they did not have a percussionist so he filled both rows of been the drummer and percussionist...

Just thot I would share...
