Saying Rich is better than Peart doesn't bother me, because its based a lot on music style and technique. And of course, its an opinion; its wrong, but its an opinion. I can't stand the jazz nerds that won't even acknowledge that Neil is a great drummer.
He's more technical, but no one had a feel for a song like Bonham. I think he's No.1, but any list without Bill Ward is suspect, at best.
