There are many great drum performances out there. Which is your favorite? It can be live or studio, whichever is best.

Although Phil Collins is my man, I have to go with 21st Century Schizoid Man on The Great Deceiver: Live. By Bill Bruford.
So good.

The instrumental section of 'Firth of Fifth' on Seconds Out always blows my mind, as does Neil Pearts performance on 'Freewill' live and studio.

I agree, one of the best players around at the moment.
 
Martin Lopez (Opeth) is another guy who's really impressed me over the last few years too. Pity he's no longer with them.

The drum duet with Chester Tompson and Phil Collins has to be mentioned. I've only seen it on the Wembly DVD and when they played like at Twikinum this year, both slightly different but great.

Also have to say Mike Portnoy all the way through his live concerts is astounding but as a singular piece has to the the duet.

Prog drum performances? How do you spot that??? Coming for a non-prog band (Cream), anyway Ginger Baker's "Toad" should always be mentioned in drum-oriented threads  Wink

As for the rigurous prog stuff, I'd say anything by Barriemore Barlow: excellent drumster, grotesquely overlooked.
The best you can is good enough...
