"Suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. Suddenly someone will say 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp,' out of the blue. No explanation and there's no point in looking for one either. It's all part of the cosmic unconsciousness." Tracey Walter as "Miller" in "Repo Man"

Ginger Baker
Matt Wilson
Wow, no one's ever give me my own post before!
Gadd is very familiar, of course, as is Ginger Baker. But the other three are new for me (I must have known of Matt Wilson, as I was drumming in a band in Minneapolis at the same time that Trip Shakespeare was on the radar).
I've been listening over the past few years to Dave Weckl, who got his start with Chick Corea and now has his own band. He's one of the most accomplished technicians on the instrument, ever. But it's a very technical form of jazz--technically maybe not even jazz, as there is little room for improvisation. Still an amazing, almost superhuman mastery.
