The most amazing drum recording I've experienced (and this one kills most of the ones listed so far) is from South American metal band Sepultura. I don't recall the name of the album but on that album they play with the Kodo drummers of Japan. The recording is clean, clear and crazy dynamic. This is THE BEST percussive audio workout I know of.
