Post your favorite drum fill here!

[bbernardini]

The four I thought of on the way to work this morning:

Spock's Beard - "At The End Of The Day" - the end of the orchestra section, going into the rock part before the first verse

Porcupine Tree - "She's Moved On" - coming out of the ending acoustic section into the guitar solo

Rush - "YYZ" - the last drum fill going into the guitar solo

Queen - "Fat Bottomed Girls" - the obnoxious 20-zillion tom fill towards the end of the song

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

1. The hit hat trills Stewart Copeland does in "Driven to Tears"

[tigereye]

13. it's hi hat, Chavez

I can say that since I am taking drum lessons. ;)

In a Gadda Da Vida, Wipe-Out and any Buddy Rich or Blakey solo.

2. Keith Moon's extended fill on "Won't Get Fooled Again" in the live version

from "The Kids Are Alright," just before we see Townshend flying across the stage into the kneepad skid to Daltrey's final "Yeaaaaaah."

[FunBobbyMucha]

8. Just your description of that sends shivers.

I remember seeing that in the theater and that moment just made the place erupt.

Fuck Almighty do I miss his drumming!

[tigereye]

14. no one plays like Moon did

like a whirling crazed dervish. Wow. He was good.

[Devils Advocate NZ]

3. I can't remember what song it was from...

but it goes something like:

bah bah bum, titty titty bum, bah bum doof badah bum doof doof titty badah bah bum, titty titty bum...

Sorry - I had to :-)

4. That's "Big Rock Candy Mountain" by Burl Ives

My, I'm on a Burl kick this month.

That's my second DU post about him.

[bacchant]

5. Pretty much any Billy Cobham tune is a non-stop drum fill ; )

[CO Liberal]

6. Steam's "Na Na, Hey Hey, Kiss Him Goodbye" (1969)

The drummer worked overtime on that song.

[FunBobbyMucha]

7. Always and forever, side two of Abbey Road.

The lead-in to "The End." Whether it was actually Paul and not Ringo or not.

Also the only thing I can play on drums.

[regularguy]

9. Steely Dan - Aja -

I think it's Steve Gad...

[tigereye]

15. good session drummers have their own wonderful level of skills

[chenGOD]

10. The Winstons-"Amen Brother"

Ok it's a break rather than a fill, but what a break it is...:)

[XNASA]

11. Terry Chambers of XTC on "Senses Working Overtime"

Right after the, "And I've got 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,......" bit.

[peekaloo]

12. Pete Thomas on 'Lipstick Vogue'......EC & the Attractions

[BurtWorm]

17. That's exactly the song that entered my mind!

:toast:

[RandomKoolzip]

16. The fills Levon Helm plays in The Band's "Tears of Rage."

I quote some long lost rock critic: "Levon Helm is the only drummer who can make you cry with only the sound of his drums."

Also: Pretty much any fill Keith Moon ever played, especially the intro to "Pure and Easy."

Bill Bruford's intro to "South Side of the Sky."

The rolls in between chorus and verse in Husker Du's "Makes no Sense at All."

The one snare hit Mickey Waller uses to come in on Rod Stewart's "I'm Losing You" is sublime...listen to it.

[Beware the Beast Man]

18. Brant Bjork-formerly of Kyuss and Fu Manchu-on pretty much everything.

The guy's an awesome drummer.

[realisticphish]

19. Jellikit, by Primus

and while its not JUST drums, i love the latin fill in Fool In The Rain, by Led Zep
