Favorite drummers would be the Elvin, Blakey, Roach, Jo Jones, Tony Williams, Billy Hart, Al Foster, Lenny White, Brian Blade, Chris Dave, Ari Hoenig, and Eric Harland. I know its a long list but I would feel bad leaving any of these guys out.
Ill try to keep the album list shorter: Clifford Brown & Max Roach (also all the Brown Roach stuff and Saxophone Colossus), Night in Tunisia, Out to Lunch, My Favorite Things, Mwandishi, Agharta, Voyager, Destinations Unknown, etc. stuff with the guys above.
Hunter Parker
If I were to record an album my wishlist of drummers would be Eric Harland, Jeff Watts, Donald Edward, or Marcus Gilmore. Or Johnathan Blake.
These guys probably wouldn't exist without greats like Elvin Jones, Tony Williams, Joe Chambers, and Roy Haynes.
Elijah Walker
what do you recommend with Al Foster?
Camden Roberts
The stuff with Miles from the 70s is great, so Agharta, Get Up With It, Dark Magus, etc. He also played with Miles in the 80s and theres some good live stuff from that time. Thats the stuff I most know him from, but he's played around. There's a Dexter album he's on, and a Chris Potter album, lotsa stuff.
Mason Collins
Good thread OP.
Tony Williams and Vinnie Colaiuta are legitimately the best drummers of all time in my opinion.
Nolan Carter
>Clifford Brown & Max Roach
good taste
Jacob Gutierrez
What do you recommend with Joe Chambers? I haven't heard of him before.
Ian Peterson
I think pretty much any of the Blue Note albums he's on are great, especially any by Wayne Shorter or Bobby Hutcherson
Brandon Long

Julian Hughes
elvin jones.............*can swing*
John Sanders
lol cuz bonham cant!
Aiden Phillips
i unironically do not care for the bonzo man...
Jack Sanchez
Shaggy can't do it but let me tell you something, Bonham was thundering against that Ludwig.
Christian King
what i didnt get for the longest time as a drummer trained in the rock vein was that a lot of jazz was swung and cut at the same time...found it mind blowing once i put it together... perhaps obvious to some, but truly opened my eyes
hes fucking great, try lisdtening to how the west was won live stuff .... he is defacto amazing
but nothing compares to the skill and freedom of cats like elvin
i just enjoy the joke that he cant swing....
Easton Stewart
i honestly find this the most beautiful thing ever
Jaxon Cruz
for fear of sounding like a tremendous cunt, theres very few rock drummers i can really get down with. they just lack all of the fluidity and personality of the jazzyboys. probably since they cant define themselves based on the width of their 8th note or somehting, idk. most rock drummers that are supposed to be good are just over technical trained monkeys or drunkards bashing the shit out of a perfectly good drums set. also, why in the fuck do rock drummers play cymbals that sound like cock? (i just got back from a gig and ive been drinking)
Jordan Hill
cuz it is slut
Joshua Rogers
id love to hear the last minute or two of this really clearly, just to hear what the hands are doing, to learn
Carter Watson
btw did anyone listen to new ambrose akinmusie record yet?
Jack Bailey
drinking myself. cheers mate!
>cant define themselves based on the width of their 8th note or somehting, idk
that is an interesting theoretical statement
im not gonna go on a bonham shred, but i will say this: give the west was one shit a listen - go confirm your bias if you like. he's not overly a technician - hes super technically capable, fluid as fuck, so goddam locked in for time, inventive as hell, musical, a pure peer to his mates, so damn free in his phrasing, and stuck in the goddamn groove like a magnetic needle. its frankly unbelievable.
still cant fucking swing.
its just another genre. nothing compares to the cats like elvin tho. just nothing.
ill look for a link now m8
Ryder Ortiz
>find out there's a avant-garde jazz subgenre called "Yass"
>listening to some yass
Bretty fucking good t b h
Bentley Wright
haha nice man. i will give that stuff a listen if i can bare it, even when i was listening almost exclusively to rock music i was never a big zeppelin guy, i dont know why. i do actually have pretty high opinions of the guys in that band and enjoy bonham not being technically flashy or anything. maybe its the song writing, idk cant really get in to them. also i have a pet peeve about the bassist doubling the guitar part, aka every zeppelin bassline, which is upsetting.
Elijah Nguyen
oh and about the 8th note. i find that the width of someones 8th note can be a seriiiouussly defining factor of that person. i started thinking about that when i moved up north for school and a teacher of mine was able to identify me as a southerner cause i play with a pretty extremely wide 8th note. since then ive used it as a really strong defining factor for musicians.
Jacob Brooks
thats the really amazingly fluid realm of rhythm
ive never even heard it talked about, except for my own observations on how tight this or another guy swings - but then we're already talking about swinging
if any other related thoughts drift up post em
this needs to be stickied on any jazz drum thread:

Alexander Thompson
Anyone have an opinion on pic related?
I'm only just getting into jazz and I like it quite a lot, though bossa nova seems to be more approachable than most jazz for me. Where can I find more? If there's better music like this out there where can I find it?
Jose Lee
Mother fuck. That sounds incredible, seeing gayle at the knitting factory. How was it?
Jonathan Rivera
Holy shit, this is amazing. I can't stop listening to it.
What are more stuff that are similar to this?
Also I really love Mingus what more should I check out that is similar to him?
Justin Robinson
Do I have stockholm syndrome, or is Keith Jarrett's moaning an acquired taste?

Pretty much all the drummers that have already been mentioned. I'll just add in Ed Shaughnessy. A great inspiration to me. Gonna put Gene Krupa and Jim Chapin as well, and Steve Smith from the newer generation of drummers.
