John Engels made a great record "Brilliant!" with a band called the Diamond Five ages ago. It was reissued a few years ago and it swings from start til end.

Another drummer that comes to mind is Manu Katche

I have to think a bit harder for other drummers. Will let you know.
Cool..I have heard of some of those folks/have albums by them (El Negro, Katche, and I'm pretty sure I have some Bennink as well)..but I'll check out the other ones too! (Especially if you can come up with some other ones...)
Thanks!
