these 4 guys are master drummers- extremely good, I'm doubting anyone else would mention them though.
41. Kenny Jones (Small Faces, Faces, The Who)
42. Bobby Elliott (The Hollies)
43. John Barbata (The Turtles, various session work)
44. Clem Burke (Blondie)
Is this purely rock drummers? Because even though many people don't like them, I have just started listening to them myself, Carter Beauford of Dave Matthews Band is an amazing drummer that is better than some on this list. And the entire band gets a bad rep... one of the most talented groups musician-wise of the last 25 years.

No, it's not just rock drummers... I put Tito Puente, Max Roach, Art Blakey and Ray Barretto on the list. But I would call a drummer who played for the DMB a rock drummer anyway.
So... 46. Carter Beauford
47. Dave Weckl
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8JMlq0mttk
Sorry, Beauford should have been 45 so Weckl should be 46.
47. Stevie Wonder.
