I presonaly think John is a great drummer live, ive seen many good drummers, Steve Gadd being one of them, but maybe John is'nt suited to much studio work.I know being in a studio is a pain, esp when its 4/5 weeks running going over and over the same songs!
But with regards to bands/solo artistes Clapton uses the same band in the studio as he does live most of the time, I guess it preferences on the performer and the musician.
I am sure there is a valid reason, maybe John could answer himself?!
