Name two underrated drummers (Not necessarily the best):

[Swindon On Tour]

Brian Downey - Thin Lizzy @Kingdom Bhoy - Excellent. (Superb Timing)
Bill Ward - Black Sabbath (Versatile)

Both above absolute class and made for their respective bands.
Not in the same league as Neil Peart (Rush) but at the top of their profession.
