OK! Let's see how many here can follow the "only one" rule.

I'll start :

Carmine Appice's outro on Shotgun from the 'Near The Beginning' album.  (a definite precursor to Bonham's outro on 'Rock and Roll', hmmm?)

Ok, first I'll have to mention that, when I was in high school, we used to do Vanilla Fudge's version of "Shotgun".

There are so many...

But

I really like the intro Mitch Mitchell does to "Love or Confusion" off of the "Are You Experienced" album.  Nothing spectacular, it just sounds really good.

Larrie Londin's entire performance on Steve Wariner's The Weekend, 1985.  The cross-stick is the thickest and most consistent I've ever heard without sounding like a woodblock, and the toms sigh mournfully yet sentimentally, which befits the subject matter of the piece.

Agreed. Simple is good too, like Mitch's intro to Redding's She's So Fine or his intro to Little Miss Lover (both on the Axis).

"Favorite drum part on a tune"...I'm going to interpret this as being the drumming for an entire song, and not just a favorite few measures.  So mine is...

Manu Katche's performance on "Come Talk To Me" on Peter Gabriel's Secret World Live DVD.  A well-crafted drum beat at the core of it all, some great solo breaks, all played oh so elegantly by Manu.

Yes, just a few measures is meant, as was given in the initial selections. Cheesy example : That mini drum (w/synth?) solo in "Frankenstein".

OK then, I'm going with Manu's second drum "break" in that same tune/recording from SWL.

I don't know if I can call out an all time fave, but this one popped to my head inmediately: Cozy Powell MURDERING his set on the intro of Rainbow's Stargazer.

I've always liked the drum  break in Radar Love. Actually I like the drumming through the whole tune.

I really love the fill in Tom Sawyer. Peart really taught me that fills can consist of much more than tom rolls.
Otherwise, I also love the outro Gadd plays in Aja.

Currently ...

The God Machine - The Blind Man off the album Scenes From The Second Storey.    

The change at about 3:30 or so.  Just a pounding tumultuous part that seems like a break, but keeps going when the guitar and bass finally kick in.  Then about 5:00 it all stops abrubtly and starts back up again even more intensely.
