phil EHART is a musical genius on the percussion drums,his expertise is right up there with BILL WARD,GINGER BAKER,BONHAM, and the rest of the amazing drummers that have entertained us over the years,i really like DON BREWER of GRAND FUNK,BUT MAN THEY ARE ALL GOOD, but I'm a stringed player and RICH WILLIAMS walks on water when on the neck of a guitar,he is a scientific player,knows what he is doing,when you play opposite KERRY LIVGREN YOU HAD BETTER BE

I am a huge Steve Walsh fan but listening to JE now I think I was too critical back then. He does a heck of a job on this song.

I'm a HUGE Rush fan and I LOVE Neil's drumming, he is phenomenal, no doubt. But if you think he's the BEST drummer on the planet, you need to widen your horizons. There are drummers out there playing things Neil can only dream about, and I'm sure he would be the first to tell you that! Check out guys like Marco Minneman, Chris Coleman, Mike Mangini, Vinnie Coluaita, just to name a few! However, I think Neil is the BEST drummer for RUSH.

What's really a shame is that you have such a poor attitude towards someone else's beliefs even though they are amazing musicians. Enjoy the music!!! Leave your biases out of it!!!

I've seen ELP 4 times, and while Carl Palmer is a great drummer, how on Earth can YOU say he's better than Neil Peart? For that matter, how can you say he's better than Danny Carey, or Terry Bozzio, Buddy Rich, and yes, even Phil Ehart? Music is subjective, and we all have our favorites, regardless of the instrument they play.

@BluStile3 I'm a Kansas fan, a Queen fan, and an ELP fan, but anybody who thinks there is a better drummer than Neil Peart is smoking crack! That being said, Walsh left Kansas before this album came out, and John Elefante was a decent replacement. Not the same, but he did justice to the Walsh-era tunes he covered. They could have done a lot worse to be sure!

I am a Kansas fan, I am a queen fan, I am a fan of most inovative and unusually written music that does not get airplay...However, 1st Steve Waslsh had a more pure voice than John and as far as drums and percussion....HOW ON EARTH can you not make mention that Carl Palmer is the finest drummer to walk the planet? I am amazed. ?Could it be that you never heard him in anything but Lucky Man? I dont know but you are all smart enough to see the genius of Kansas, look live ELP, the invented Prog.

I would rather see Elefante performing sober and coherent, than watching Walsh jumping around like a monkey, strung out on god knows whatever drugs he was taking at the time..

Ewwww Elefante ... he was a low point in Kansas' history for me. But I'm an old fan so I guess it will always be Walsh or nothing for me. Glad he eventually found his way back to the band in the end. Kansas for life!
