6th June 2008 -- Def Leppard's Rick Allen In Great Drummers List |

Darren's UK Def Leppard Site News.



Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen is listed at number 7 on UK website Gigwise for their Greatest Drummers Of All Time List. Rick makes the top ten on the list of 100.

7 - Rick Allen of Def Leppard

"In our countdown, Allen is totally unique. Whereas most drummers have had to overcome arrogant frontmen during their careers, Allen has continued to drum with just one arm. Allen had to undergo a complete amputation of his left arm following a car accident when he was 21. Through the adversity, however, he's gone on to become one of rock's truly special sticksmen."

Top Ten Drummers

1 - John Bonham (Led Zeppelin)
2 - Keith Moon (The Who)
3 - Danny Carey (Tool)
4 - Neil Peart (Rush)
5 - Jimmy Chamberlin (Smashing Pumpkins)
6 - Buddy Rich (Jazz/big bands)
7 - Rick Allen (Def Leppard)
8 - Carl Palmer (Emerson, Lake & Palmer/Asia)
9 - Gene Krupa (Jazz/big bands)
10 - Phil Collins (Genesis).
