Now, don't get me wrong... Neil is beyond good. He's awesome. As were John Bonham and Keith Moon.

But Billy? Billy is a master. He'd be the drummer for Jesus if He had a band.

You forgot this: [sarcasm]

Drunk post alert.

He's beyond good, even great, but so much better than Peart to say he sucks in comparison....nev a!

Dude... sober as a judge (when I posted that). If you read my post in its entirety, you'll see I gave Neal his due... aside from spelling his name wrong.

Billy is better. A lot better.

Bonham is either the drummer for Jesus or Lucifer................NO DOUBT.

Of the living Stephen Perkins IMHO is untouchable.

Neither had the chops Billy Cobham has. When the levee breaks? Really? Just listened to it. One of my favorite Zep songs... and if you listened to the whole link I posted and you think that is a better example of a drummer...

You're as dumb as you are ugly. And I swore that was impossible... cuz you're uglier than a mud fence with ugly fence posts.

The problem with Spirit's lawsuit is it's 3 chords of goes nowhere.Similar but add Jimmy Page and this is a no brainer.........Few even know of the song Taurus by Spirit so I call bull****.Spirit just needed a revenue source and a lawsuit was a good way to get it.

That's just more booze talk........you know you dream about me in your sleep.

No, sir. I've had 7 beers since noon... And half as many bottled waters. I got to hit the gym tomorrow... can't do that with a hang over, broheim.

Sure, one of those beers was a 22 oz at 10% abv, but for me that's small potatoes, slick rick.

If I was drunk, I'd be cursing a lot and making very little sense. 🍺

Um, those "3 chords" are only the basis for the whole tune.

I don't care about a lawsuit.

I just find it odd that you'd defend a band that has grown to be notorious for stealing riffs.

Heck, they've had to change their writing credits on more than one occasion.

You can start with Dazed and Confused (blatant) and then learn that other songs like Whole Lotta Love and many others were also more than just "influenced" by earlier works that were never credited.

Just because "few" even know the song Taurus means nothing. It's a stolen tune.

Improved upon, to be sure. But stolen nonetheless and it should have been credited, but it wasn't.

I've heard bullsh*t infringement lawsuits before. This isn't one of them.

OK, but the fact that Spirit opened for Zep on their first tour? Two years before Stairway was released? 😰 🤔

A drummer.

I prefer Terry Bozzio to any mentioned so far.

A handful of great songs but disfunctional band.
