You can only wonder that if you never heard Brand X with Phil Collins at the drums. Here an example:

I already have explained the term "overrated" in connection with Peart.

I keep on wondering why Peart is so over rated... are the most of you gone under a brain washing full treatment? LOL

The best prog drummers ever, IMHO, are
Phil Collins
Bill Bruford
Barriemore Barlow
Simon Phillips
and one between Pierre Van Der Linden, Pip Pyle and Pierre Moerlen.
