I have a great book called "Great drummers of the sixties". It is not so much about rock kits but the great drummers who influenced the outcome of todays kits.
Has profiles including photos and signature notation for drummers such as Carmine Appice,Bobby Elliot, Jerry Edmonton,Kenny Jones, Keith Moon, Mitch Mitchell to name a few.
Book is written by Bob Cianci a drummer and historian.

It is published by Hal Leonard, my copy 1989. There maybe another book to follow for drummers of 70's, but not sure.
