How does the drum kit sound on your rig?

Good drum sound kills me...I really love it when it's right. I've been a musician/sound tech for many years (and love to play drums, although guitar is my main thing) and my biggest drum beef is with record producers NOT getting the scale right...the kit should seem contained without panning things extremely wide to make the drummer seem like a gorilla. Also, well recorded cymbals from great players can sound really sweet if recorded cleanly. Bill Stewart, amazing...Gabe Jarrett (Keith's son) is also a fave...one of the best sounding recordings I have is his obscure but brilliant one album (I think) of his Vermont band Vorcza called "Maximalist"...just a beautiful and brilliant kick ass trio in the Medeski, Martin and Wood genre but, trust me, WAY hotter. Another gripe: I really like recent Steely Dan stuff (including the amazing solo Becker or Fagan things) but wonder why the cymbals often sound sort of "spitty" and somehow less clean...weird as the engineer is usually the Grammy winning dude Elliot Shiner. Somebody tell him to SHAPE UP.

Good Sounding Drums:
Any Tom Petty album
Jim Capaldi sounds great on "Living on the outside"
Police (Synchronicity in particular)
Harvey Mason on Weekend in LA Live (George Benson)
Harvey Mason on Homage to Duke (Dave Grusin)
Dennis Chambers on Maceo Parker Roots & Grooves Live
Duran Duran Strange Behaviour (particularly Steve Ferrone's chops on Meet El Presidente - the 12 inch version was marketed to night clubs and is less compressed than radio friendly versions)

I find that there's a TON of really well recorded jazz stuff with amazingly real sounding drums...from Brad Mehldau to Bill Evans...Chick Corea's "Akoustic" bands, etc.

The Police Certifiable Blu-ray has an alternate angle just on Stewart Copeland for two tracks. Sound quality is good (not great) but it is fun to watch.
