Yeah, I would add Verdine White in there, but he is as far from metal as you can get.

Ian Hill is under rated for sure. I also like Eddie Jackson from Queensryche .

There’s so many.
The main man for me would be Ian “Lemmy a fiver” Kilmister although he wouldn’t class himself as metal.
Also a big fan of Brian Mitchell from Alter Bridge,Nikki Sixx from Motley Crue,Duff McKagan from GnR ,Cass Lewis from Skunk Anansie but the list goes on forever
