Sucks.  I read his books as well. Really interesting as were his lyrics.  Loved the early Rush and also liked snakes and arrows, one of their last ones.

Hard to think of one I'd put above him. There are drummers I like better, but I don't think there was a better drummer. Dude is a legend.

Bonzo and Keith Moon are the two that always seem to come up, but Neil more than holds his own in that company.   His style was different, for sure.  I realize that we're splitting hairs with any such comparisons, as these guys were all really, really great drummers...
