1.  Ginger Baker

2.  Simon King

3.  Richard Chadwick

4.  Terry Olis

5.  Alan Powell

6.  Martin Griffin

7.  Danny Thompson  - Chronicles & LC used to be my favorite HW albums until
        someone mentioned not liking the drumming, when I listened to it next
        I paid attention to it and this almost has ruined the album for me.
        I still like it for other reasons, but there are times when it almost
        seems Huw is having to cover for DT just to give the song some more
        rhythym.  And Elric the Enchanter (part 1, from the studio version),
        once one of my favorite songs, gets me cringing, I have to force myself
        not to pay attention to the drums...  also Needle Gun, that's another.
        which is why I'm waiting with baited breath to hear it done by a
        real drummer, Albert....
