Re: Louie Bellson
Louie is one of the "last of the mohicans" when it comes to old school jazz drummers. He doesn't get mentioned enough. He's still the man.

Re: Who influences you?
Same here. I watched him more than I let him teach me anything. He did get me hooked on his two biggest influences: Krupa and Rich.

Re: Most Under-rated Drummers
Oscar Seaton, who's played with Lee Ritenour. This guy is one of my favorites. The dude can flat groove! Check out Lee Ritenour on youtube doing Papa Was A Rolling Stone. They lay down a FAT groove!

Re: The grooviest groove?
Brick House by the Commodores(Walter "Clyde" Orange on drums). Although this might have to be mentioned under the 'fattest groove' catagory. Still, that's a tight jam!
