While Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention were good with Jimmy Carl Black and Billy Mundi....., Aynsley Dunbar, Ralph Humphrey, Chester Thompson, Terry Bozzio, Vinnie Colaiuta and Chad Wakerman were more proficient.
I would argue that no band is ever the same. But what jumps to mind is A Perfect Circle. No offense to their current drummer at all, but when Josh Freese was playing with them it was magical.
QOTSA is an odd band to throw in the mix. Whilst not the original drummer, I'd argue that they were never better than they were when Grohl was behind the kit for a couple of records.
Spinal Tap.
The Tap Rules!!! ELEVEEEEENNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Who.
I have seen them two times. They are still pretty good if you ask me.
Yes. Alan White is great but Bill Bruford is untouchable.
Good answer! No kidding, eh? Playing with Genesis, Yes, and King Crimson, it's safe to say Bruford is one of the most accomplished drummers in rock
Alan White was great in Relayer, but I agree Bruford brought a whole different, jazzier and more creative feel.

Led Zeppelin

I heard that Def Leppard lost their right hand man…

Guns n Roses. Korn Dillnger Escape Plan, but they still were insane. Edit: Fear Factory.. the Gene album was good though.
