Max Roach could destroy Buddy Rich, and Buddy knew it.
Jo Jones ( Count Basies's band) was a much better than Krupa. Krupa was popular because he was a good looking guy in Goodman's band. Basie's band swung harder than anyone.
Elvin Jones was/is one of the greatest. Coltranes band? 40 minute tunes and never running out of an idea? If it wasn't 4 to the bar swing, Rich couldnt play it.
Its funny you guys are talking jazz drummers and only mentioned white guys. You need to do some homework.
