29. Dale Crover

Dale Crover has been a member of the Melvins, a band located in the Pacific Northwest, since 1983, and has been dubbed “the best drummer in the world” by none other than Dave Grohl. He also contributed to Nirvana’s rise to fame in its early years, recording nine tracks and B-sides for the band’s debut album, Bleach, before Grohl formally joined the group. In the event that things didn’t work out with me, Grohl speculated that they might be able to get Dale on board. Crover’s drumming is influenced by his admiration for Kiss and Led Zeppelin, among other bands.

28. Mick Fleetwood

Mick Fleetwood is most known for his role as one of the cofounders of the rock band Fleetwood Mac. After his family purchased him a drum kit when he was a child, he began to struggle in school and pursue music as a hobby. During the early years of Fleetwood Mac, in the late 1960s, Fleetwood suffered from “rhythmic dyslexia,” a condition that caused him to panic and lose his beat while performing live on stage. In certain situations, he would sing filled pauses in order to keep the tempo. Along with that, he mastered the art of following and anticipating lead guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, which enabled him to match the guitar rhythm with the drumbeat.
