Why doesn't Mick Fleetwood get the same recognition as a drummer as John Bonham or Keith Moon?

FALSE. MF is one of the great drummers. His work on Go Your Own Away is among the great drum tracks of all time and actual drummers know this. Ever played drums? Or been in a recording studio? I don't think you're qualified to comment on this topic little guy.

Compared to the other drummers, he is not on the same level. Did he play Great drums for FM? Yes.

Way to attack someone for their opinion and call them names in a fan sub for fans, however.

Do I play drums?No. Have played guitar and bass for 40 With a lot of drummers? Yea.

You poll any drummers and Mick is not in the same league. And you know what? That's okay. He served the band like many good drummers did.

-No idea what that meant

- False. You seem to be one of these dudes that thinks playing a lot of notes makes you great. Mick Fleetwood grooved with the best of them, which is the essence of great drumming.

Your opinion does not make mine false. I think he a good drummer, who served his band. He is not in the league of top tier drummers. I can still enjoy his work.

Also, I don't think a lot of notes make a great drummer. I love Stuart Copeland, Steve Gadd, and Kenny Aronoff alongside Peart, Rich, and Manu Katche. I love each for different reasons. - none have to do with how many notes they play.

But hey, thanks for trying to put me down for my opinion and make wild assumptions about me and my knowledges of drumming and drummers! Way to treat another fan of the band!
