Let there be drums ??

Im looking for some good drum music (if you call it that) similar to the scene in the Mask where hes dancind with Cameron Diaz.

Ive looked round the local Library etc. but keep coming up empty so if anyone has any ideas Id appreciate it.

Nothing drum & base etc. just good old fashioned drumming.

Many thanks

mrmcdean,

The sort of music you're probably looking for is either drum led jazz or big band style.

A good start for the former would be any stuff by 'Buddy Rich'(he's a famous jazz drummer).

Oh yeah, watched The Mask last week - very, very slowly God, Cameron Diaz was something special back then. That bank/red dress scene . She was SO sexy in that film

"Drum Battle" by Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa, available on a nice 20 bit re-mastered CD by Verve. A classic jazz / drums album that should light your candle.
