I couldnt agree more

As for Dave Grohl... Eh, maybe I'd appreciate his drumming more if I didn't despise Nirvana. One of my favorite drummers at the moment is Joey Baron... But he's a jazz drummer not a "rock/metal" one, though he did play in Naked City which is like a jazzcore band.

Because they were a brilliant rock n' roll band, still they rarely get a mention when the issue is discussed. Legends in my book.
Then, later, Bachman-Turner Overdrive continued down the same track, with great material performed with all the passion in the world. It all resulted in one of the greatest rock albums ever recorded. "Not Fragile", that is.
