Pupps' nomination, Carl Palmer. Below is from 2009, at 59 years of age, the others still can't touch him.
I don't know . . . Don Brewer from GFR was pretty good.
Neil Peart?

It's got to be Buddy Rich, followed by John Bonham.
We're close, to a degree. Pupps has 'em ranked:
Carl Palmer
John "Bonzo" Bonham ( who said Carl was the best he had ever seen )
Buddy Rich
Thanks to all of you for your response. Since my vid for Carl was when he was 59 years old, here's one of him at his prime...1974
I FORGOT TO MENTION BILLY MARTIN. Definitely gets a honorable mention, far above any rock drummer. He plays a funk/fusion which is so much harder than your standard rock.
Don't mistake lack of showmanship for skill and control when it comes to this guys. For true drum fans watch this whole video, note the bassist Chris wood is way out of his league compared to everyone around him.
For the passer byes, start at around 7:30 for a good sample of this guy
