Ronald Shannon Jackson (Last Exit)
An avant-jazz icon, Ronald Shannon Jackson made his name by being fast, wild, unpredictable, and robotic. Jackson was originally a parade drummer, he learned from African rhythms and funk musicians, which made his style very unique yet recognizable. Jackson started Decoding Society and later formed Last Exit, an Avant-jazz-punk quartet that still plays today. If Ronald Jackson didn't start his career as a drummer in a marching band, it's likely that his sound would be much different.
