Must admit I like listening to good drum solo's, especially through a good hifi system!
Can you get well recorded drum solo albums ?

Re: Drum CD's.
Just checking, are you talking about albums containing good drum solos (E.L.P's eponymous debut album and the track 'Tank' for instance) or albums like Steve Reich's 'Drumming?'
Whichever it is you might get a few ideas here and here

Joe Morello is, (was), superb. Here's another, a bit long but on my original vinyl version, it just keeps you riveted to your seat:

Re: Drum CD's.
jon Hiseman 'About Time Too' is an album completely comprised of drum solo's, I have the LP lying around somewhere and it is available on CD. A very dynamic recording and a test for any speaker.

Re: Drum CD's.
If I could find a recording any a HiFi system that could reproduce "Monochrome" as done by the Kodo drummers. I would be very happy. My advice, save your money and see it live.
There's a CD of Burundi drummers (as use by Joni Mitchell in "The Jungle Line" which isn't bad.
Just got "MCRS" by Shankar (ECM) which has the most subtle drum solo I've ever heard (March by Jon Christensen).

Re: Drum CD's.
off the top of my head You want the German Klaus Weiss Niagara band.. All three albums were released as a 3CD package a few years ago.. He was later in the band Sunbirds which were more Jazz/Fusion band but good stuff all the same.
