17. Jeff Porcaro (Toto)
Perhaps the most prominent studio drummer of all-time, Porcaro’s commercial popularity peaked in the 1980s with Toto. His drum work on the band’s Grammy-winning hit “Rosanna” – particularly the end – is a prime example of the late Porcaro’s exceptional work that was never flashy but always tight and precise.
