What are the best CDs with royalty free "Acoustic Drum Beat" samples?

 

I could sample and loop drum intros like "Walk This Way" by Aerosmith, "I've Got My Mind Set on You" by George Harrison, "My Sharona" by the Knack, "Heartbreaker" by Pat Benatar, etc. but I don't want to get in trouble by doing that if I were to release a CD of my own with these samples.

 

I've noticed when I've demo'ed around with the aforementioned "real beats" I sampled and looped, that my whole demo ends up sounding MUCH greater than when I use a software drum machine.

 

My question is.. are there any CDs out there consisting of strictly royalty free drum beats on par in quality with the Live Acoustic Drums "snippets" I've mentioned above? I'm looking to play straight-ahead rock, if that helps. Nothing like hip-hop, jazz, or jungle. I'm looking for standard rock beats similar to the ones in songs by AC/DC, ZZ Top, The Beatles, etc.

 

I'm not looking for individual drum sounds like a kick, snare, or hat I can put into a sequencer. But instead, I'm looking for actual "live organic beats" I can loop. Ideally, beats that were recorded live in a studio and sliced so you can loop the samples back-to-back.
