Elvin Jones grunts a lot.
Mel Torme was a great fucking drummer, but I don't think he ever did it at the same time.

I might have thought Blyth Power would have been mentioned first time round.
Haha I have checked the thread linked to in the second post and Blyth Power are mentioned there. By me. Complaining nobody else has suggested them. It's nice to know I've moved on in 11 years.
Good recent band using this strategy - and stand-up drumming for extra points - are Table Scraps.

I started singing and playing drums at the same time live a couple years ago, after thinking I'd never be capable of it. It takes a fair amount of coordination, but so does drumming to begin with, and obviously you can lose a little quality or attention to detail in both endeavors by doing them simultaneously, but it surprised me how quickly it started to feel relatively natural and easy.

Buddy Miles though I've read certain people he was doing it with weren't overly pleased. Apparently Band of Gypsies had to be heavily edited because of it, or so I read.

Allegedly Billy Bob Thornton plays drums and sings with The Boxmasters. I have only heard one song of them and it sounded terrible, but I know he plays drums and sings via that amusing trainwreck of an interview on qtv.
