as a big time drum fan, the others are very fogetable, But Sheila has style all her own.-- a bad ass style to be exact!, the others sound generic, great but, G E N E R I C, thats the best word to describe them, session musicians nothing more nothing less, and im pretty sure all the cats mentioned above would agree with that [Edited 4/14/07 23:13pm] SO, you think Michael B. sounds generic ? " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

Both Micheal B and John Blackwell are kick ass drummers and added something special to Prince's sound. But I think Sheila is the most versatile of them all.
Lovesexy live...the Dance On intro....still amazes me! Also the ONA performance when she plays the drums on The Ride! I love how she combines her latin/jazz/rock style. | |

I would have to say both Shelia E. and Michael Bland. | |

Whoa, this is a pretty hard decision, but I saw John Blackwell at the '04 Musicology tour, and that guy was amazing! I have to pick him, Shelia E is and will always be awesome, but I gotta venture off and say Blackwell, that guy hits rhythms that I didn't even know were possible. To me they are tied I guess. | |

I'd say Sheila first and then Micheal was a bad boy! "Why'd I waste my kisses on you baby?" R.I.P. Prince You've finally found your way back home. Well Done. | |

Michael B. is still the greatest. Still the greatest drummer in Minneapolis. Sheila is great but Michael has more chops. |

More chops !!!! there is a big different in sizes here. Sheila is a tiny little thing with the energy of the atomic bomb.. No comparison.. Sheila still the best.. | |
