 | Exit...Stage Left by Rush
Buy new: $10.97 / Used from: $3.93 Neal Pert from Rush. Blame me for going with the obvious #1. All 3 Rush members make my top lists for their instruments.
|
 | Lateralus by Tool
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $5.84 Danny Carey from Tool. Just listen to one of their songs and focus in on the drums.
|
 | Yield by Pearl Jam
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $0.85 Jack Irons from Pearl Jam. Thought Matt Cameron gets the press as a phenomenal drummer, Irons laid down the tribal eastern influence beats you'll find on No Code and Yield.
|
 | Ten Silver Drops by Secret Machines
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $0.78 Josh Garza from The Secret Machines. Their Joy Division meets Pink Floyd doesn't reveal his skills. He has a Jon Bonham style that unleases during gigs.
|
 | Too Far to Care by Old 97's
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $8.62 Phillip Peeples from Old 97's. Ken Bethea's guitar and Peeples' drums are the driving force behind this Punk-cum-Country-cum-70's radio pop band from the big D.
|
 | The Shade of Poison Trees by Dashboard Confessional
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $5.95 Mike Marsh from Dashboard Confessional. Being a more acoustically oriented emo band this isn't the obvious choice. I was drawn into to his drumming from their MTV show. Good stuff.
|
 | Icky Thump by The White Stripes
Buy used from: $1.01 Meg White from The White Stripes. Not everyone cares for her straightforward style or calls it madly skilled but she pounds the skins hard, fierce, and passionate. Just listen to Seven Nation Army.

![Zenyatta Mondatta [Digipak]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31122Q10WFL._SL75_.jpg) | Zenyatta Mondatta [Digipak] by The Police
Buy new: $8.49 / Used from: $5.06 Stewart Copeland from The Police. This guy is so jazzy good he should be arrested.
|
 | 1984 by Van Halen
Buy new: $8.97 / Used from: $4.70 Alex Van Halen from Van Halen. I listened to quite a few drum solos pounded out by Alex in the day. With Hot for Teacher Alex lays down crazy mad beats.
|
 | Kind of Blue by Miles Davis
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $4.89 Jimmie Cobb from Miles Davis' Kind of Blue. Jimmie lays it down.
|
 | King of Western Swing by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys
Buy new: $28.98 / Used from: $25.24 Monte Mountejoy from Bob Wills' Texas Playboys. He's on here because this list needed a country drummer and he was the first drummer on the Opryland stage against their will...how Rock-N-Roll!
