David Garibaldi's Future Sounds is a great groove book. I also like Tommy Igoe's Groove Essentials, it's a good introduction to different styles of music, haven't tried Groove Essentials 2.0 so I'm not sure about that one.
Advanced Funk Studies: Creative Patterns for the Advanced Drummer by Rick Latham is really good for changing things up. It move things around like the accent and brings in a lot of syncopation. I'm not a funk drummer so don't think of the book like that, it's exercises to move you out of the square if you know what I mean.
Future Sounds: A Book of Contemporary Drumset Concepts by David Garibaldi is also excellent
I get a lot from Mike Johnson and Steven Taylor off youtube. Both of them have extensive and varying levels of fills and grooves. Taylor I think has more available for free, especially a list of drum fills. But I've used Mike's site and paid for a few months and it was worth it to me.
There's also a book that I can find in many places outside of my old hometown of Buffalo, NY called Groovezilla. The concept of the book is pretty neat. It's got hundreds of grooves but all the right hand work (HH/Ride) ostanatos are on transparencies. You then take those transparecncies and lay them over the pages in the book you're working on. So one might be a HH upbeat ostinato and another is a 16th HH ostinato. My former drum teacher was a student of his (Jim Lesner, author) so he helped beta test the book for him on a lot of things. It's a great book and a secret weapon in my learning. He'll ship the book if you order it from the website, I got mine in under a week. Great guy, even put a post it not with his email address in case I had any questions or wanted to chat with him.
Good luck
I would recommend Garibaldi's Future Sounds.

Ah memories. Yep I started with How to Play rock'n'roll drums, Syncopation and this book way back in the early 90's. Then later on went to Advanced Techniques, Future Sounds and The New Breed for different permutations and limb independence. And 'trying' to pick apart and play Dave Weckl's Island Magic.
Does anyone else remember those drum solos like calypso eclipsed and aint it rich?
Hi,
I´ll recommend to keep your "main focus" on comping, fills will come out easily & naturally, even those tasty ones, when you have good control over technique .
But to your question. I highly recommend -Future Sounds-
by David Garibaldi. (Tower of Power drummer)
Check these out

for example those permutation studies most likely challenges even more advanced drummers.
Good Luck!
I think a better book would be Garibaldi's "Future Sounds": https://www.amazon.com/Future-Sounds-Contemporary-Drumset-Concepts/dp/0739019120

He shows how you can get some wonderfully funky grooves simply by incorporating what he calls the '2 level technique' which is just varying the velocity by two different levels.
An example here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdHFJZo0S5g
I studied this book back when I was wanting to learn to play drums and was delighted at how easily I could sound much more funky than I otherwise could.
