Here’s an interesting, fun, and well-reasoned list of the 50 Greatest Rock Drummers.

Personally, I think they tend to overrate some of the more recent indie rock guys (uh, the dude from Dismemberment Plan…really…?) and Clyde Stubblefield should be top five. But then again if they included jazz/reggae/etc, this list would be markedly different. Anyway, I really enjoy the way they heavily weigh what the drummer means to the band and his/her contribution to the overall sound. Also, the top two choices are entirely inarguable.
