John "JR" Robinson (born December 29, 1954, in Creston, Iowa) is widely celebrated as one of the most recorded drummers in music history. Born into a musical family, he began piano at age five and took up drums by eight, forming his first band at ten notsomoderndrummer.com+13en.wikipedia.org+13innovativepercussion.co m+13. He honed his craft through jazz band camp and at Berklee College of Music, where education under luminaries like Alan Dawson and Gary Chaffee refined both his technique and groove en.wikipedia.org. Robinson’s big break came in 1978 when he joined Rufus & Chaka Khan for their world tour, soon catching the ear of Quincy Jones. This led to his defining role on Michael Jackson's Off the Wall, where his iconic drum fill opens “Rock with You.” His part on Steve Winwood’s “Higher Love” album further cemented his reputation axispdc.com+11drummercafe.com+11remo.com+11. Over his career, Robinson has contributed to over 30 No. 1 singles—like Whitney Houston’s “Greatest Love of All,” Lionel Richie’s “All Night Long,” Madonna’s “Express Yourself,” and Daft Punk’s Random Access Memories—while being credited on more than 60 Grammy-winning projects drummerszone.com+5remo.com+5remo.com+5. Beyond recording, Robinson has acted as the go-to studio drummer for scores of film and television soundtracks—from Space Jam to The Hangover trilogy—also serving as musical director for artists like John Fogerty, Barbra Streisand, and David Foster johnjrrobinson.com+2remo.com+2axispdc.com+2. His peers, including Quincy Jones and Peter Frampton, applaud his uniquely fluid, “chameleon-like” feel, and his contributions earned Rolling Stone acclaim in its Top 100 Greatest Drummers list learningdrums.com+13gratefulweb.com+13en.wikipedia.org+13. From early jazz studies to shaping the sound of pop, R&B, funk, and film scores, Robinson’s groove has undeniably left an indelible mark on modern music.
