    Hi Ya!

    Here's one from one of my favourite drummers.

    ( I Know I'm ) Losing You - Rod Stewart ( album: Every Picture Tells A Story ) . TherE are Youtube clips of Kenney Jones ( drummer in question ) playing this song as part of the band

    Faces. Sorry, am hopeless at links.

    Kenney's drumming on thi track isn't overly flashy. he does what he needs to do for the song. He's a very skillful / talented drummer, who's often overlooked as he's not a flashy type.

    Music lover, good luck!

    Get the album Tempel by the band Colour Haze, they have such an incredible drummer. Listen to Stratofarm and payclose attention to his drum fills

    While definitely an older style, In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida has a ~2.5 minute drum solo. What I have always liked about it is the stereo effect in the song lets you visualize the physical location of each drum.

    Source(s): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIVe-rZBcm4 solo starts at about 6:20

    It would help a lot if you would tell us your level. Are you a great player beginner advanced intermediate what? Here are two videos you might like with drum covers. If you want more suggestions you can comment with your genre prefenrence and difficulty, maybe even playing style.

    I'm a drummer their is just so many guys it hard to say just listen to and play every thing you can even its not the style you want to play...
