Songs where drums sound GOOD!

[DMachine]

Was in the car the other day and heard an old song, The Joker - Steve Miller Band, and loved the way the cymbals sound. Anybody suggest a song where the drums sound really good?

The Snare drum on Fame by David Bowie..Been trying to get that sound for years..Must be micing.
At some points it sounds like the snare wires are off? I don't know but I do know I love it and it always stands out to me, even before I started to play drums I noticed it.

White Lion's Radar Love. Best sounding drums I have ever heard period.

Genesis Seconds Out Chester Thompson on one of the original Sonor Bubinga Kits, 1974-6? For its age the drums sound killer.
90125 or Big Generator by Yes, Alan White got alot of recognition for the time spent on drum sound on these albums.

Was listening to Beatles tunes last night searching for a cover to do by them. The "Yellow Submarine" tune has a "killer" kick drum in it!! Its up front in the mix and has a resonanting sound thats fat and deep, very nice job by George Martin. Doc

I know they are digital, compressed, eq'ed, and running with heavy processing, but... I love the keyboard sounding drums in this song.

SO MANY TO CHOOSE FROM! I will limit myself to the first 10 that popped into my head where I said to myself, "HOW DID HE GET THAT SOUND!" In no particular order...

Gavin Harrison's kit always sounds amazing lol

Oh, wow............totally agree !

Studio album = Portnoy's kit on the original O.S.I. release.........killer.

Live album = Frank Zappa's THE BEST BAND YOU NEVER HEARD IN YOUR LIFE.............Chad Wackerman at his best..............and he has that kit sounding badass !

[JohnnySticks]

All of Steely Dan's stuff!

Agree a million percent. The Dan loves the drums and it shows. I was listening to Aja in the car today and just marveling at the sound.

I will also say that Bill Bruford's Earthworks always sound great. I remember a review once in Modern Drummer that said, Tama and especially Paiste should kiss Bill Bruford's royal %$# for how great he made their stuff sound. The cymbals are otherworldly.
