The 2nd drummers who...poll.  (Non prog anecdote - a mate of mine saw Rick Astley in a pub recently who gave a flawless rendition of 'Never Going to Give You Up' while playing the drums at the same time...)

From the list Phil, however Andy Sturmer (Jellyfish) is one of my favourite singers ever and he played drums standing up.

Karen Carpenter and Levon Helm receive honorable mentions.

Phil Collins, but an honorable mention to Gary O'Toole.

His voice and piano only version is also pretty good. Total different feeling to the song (obviously)
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

very hard choice.. initial reaction was Phil Collins.

However, the intensity of Vander's singing, and playing is unmatched.

I'll mention Nick D'Virgilio, formerly of Spock's Beard.  Another drummer with a really good voice is Deen Castronovo formerly of Journey, and currently of Revolution Saints.

Wyatt - love his voice and above all his songs! Collins has his highlights and Vander is great though, both very worthwhile. I mention Bernd Noske of Birth Control.

Ollie Judge of Squid. I didn’t even realise he was the drummer, until watching the Glastonbury gig. (I obviously didn’t pay any attention to the credits of the album, despite it being one of my favourites from last year.)
