Well, it was KISSIn which group does Peter Criss fall?
I don't know if he's underrated or not in the drumming community but the drummer from Our Lady Peace I always thought stood out as pretty good.
Without a doubt in mind it has to be Richie Hayward, famed drummer for Little Feat (RIP) is one of the many underrated drummers out there. He finally got recognition at the Grammy's this year, sadly it was a long time coming and after his death. When I really want a good workout/practice session I still sit down and (try) to play along to the entire double CD set of Waiting For Columbus. I suggest that if you have not heard him or even of him to check out some of his stuff, you will not be disappointed...I had the pleasure of seeing Little Feat live twice, before Lowell George passed away, phenominal shows I will never forget. Richie was one of my inspirations for playing..Still is....
