EXCELLENT LIST! I can't argue with any of 'em (B'Boom and Prism are wonderful.) Bruford is my god. But, you should have included Waiting Man. That's his stand-out track with Simmons Drums.

You know, no one ever talks about the 20 minutes he spend as the backup drummer in Genesis. Though not a period of creativity for him, Billy B did do some spectacular drumming for that band in the little time he toured with them. I've got a bootleg from '76 where he duets with Phil Collins on The Cinema Show. Earth-shattering stuff.

Wow ... a duet with Phil Collins? That's pretty cool

i agree, good list
