Un-plugged is not the same as never-was-plugged-in-to-begin-with.

When the roll is called up yonder he'll be there...

I never cared much for the drumming in Oasis myself, Bernard.

In that context I'd say one of the greatest advantages of being an "old school" is because Old Is Gold. New drummers tend to overdo it in my opinion.... Same for the new guitarists. Discretion is the Key! So is feeling

A drummer is not supposed to sound like a lumberjack

Let me just say that Art Blakey is a very close second. He's a legend, but I'm giving "Chopes" my number one spot because I've been fortunate to see him play twice with Charlie Hunter--once at The Tralf in Buffalo and a year later at SUNY Fredonia. Seeing how he does so much with a stripped-down kit is surprising and impressive.

EDIT: on a related note, Dave King of the Bad Plus plays both that kind of breakbeat style AND Neal Peart stuff:
