Your favourite drum solos

Peart, and even then only in his early days.

The drums and bass are the engine room of a band and if you are a decent enough standard you really should be able to show your goods off in the body of the song.

In my teens I was listening to a live Grateful Dead concert and the drum solo started...champion, time to get in the bath. Had a nice soak, came downstairs and the solo was still in full swing. Ridiculous.

Leave the noodling to the guitarist where it belongs. Still...gives an opportunity for a slash at a gig I suppose.
 
Ringo's solo on The End by the Beatles is the only one I like. It is short and quite musical which helps.

Oh, and before anyone starts on his drumming, if you think he is shite you are a cloth-eared fool.
 
The Amen Break


Fair enough, more of a break than a solo but I like it and it's been pretty influential
