| Looking For High Quality Drum Music. Below are some of my favorites. These aren't pure drum cd's, but have a particularly notable drum/percussion presence. - Michael Shrieve/David Beal "The Big Picture" - Billy Cobham "Spectrum" and "Total Eclipse" - King Crimson "Red" (most anythin... | |
| Best female vocals on CD Gillian Welch - I'm now a big big fan. Check out "Revival". Not only a great voice, there's some incredible bass playing. | |
