CG - of course we've heard of Gilson Lavis - Jools Holland's Rhythm And Blues Orchestra most recently, n'est-ce pas?
Do we also gather that you are a bit of a ZZ Top fan then, CFH? Fair play! Should go to see The Hamsters when they're doing that particular set then, unless you can organise seeing the real thing (come to think of it, 'course you can!)

I first read that as Mike Harding!
For me, it'd be Buddy Rich.
Dennis Chambers
Butch Trucks
Adam Deitch
Richie Hayward
Keith Carlock
Jeff Sipe
Steve Gadd
Yonrico Scott
Neil Peart. Even his drum kit went on tour round the states after the band had toured !!!!
Phil Collins may be a cockweasel, but he's not a bad skinbasher to be fair.
phil collins
boom-tish
bill stephenson
er, me
Ok, as an actual drummer, it'd be rude not to chip in with my list.
#1 influence on me is Mr Roger Taylor (Queen)
Then, in no particular order
Taylor Hawkins - Foos
Steve White - Paul Weller to name a few
Zak Starkey - Recent Who and Oasis stuff, AWESOME stage presence.
I would add You Toob references for the above, but i'm too drunk, and I'm busy downloading yur suggestions !
Ok, ok ok,
Evidence for my #1

Keith Moon
Zak Starkey
Neil Peart
Nicko McBrain
Lars Ulrich
Jon Bonham
Phil Collins
Tomas Haake, out of Meshuggah; manages to maintain the weirdest, most 'off-time' drumming for hours on end. Try 'New Millenium Cyanide Christ' for a taster... 
Also Paul Bostaph; amazing precision & seriously fast.
Can't believe no-one's mentioned Clem Burke
Robert Heaton. RIP.

Neil Peart
Bill Bruford
Billy Cobham
Saw The Dead Weather last night. JACK WHITE is just as talented on drums as he is with everything else musical.
