Interesting. Do you know where I could find drums like these for sale? I'm assuming they're somewhat different from your standard tom drums that are included in all basic kits. I've only gotten into drumming very recently, so do forgive me for sounding ignorant.
Concert Toms are still used today and are available by a number of manufactures. You'll probably have the best luck checking our
eBay Portal for some used single-head Toms (I.e. Concert Toms).
The truth be known, you can take any Tom Tom, remove the bottom drumhead and get the same results. Roto-Toms could work as well, although they do sound different, but it would work nicely if you are needing that kind of sound for the Talking Heads tune.
If I knew exactly what/why you are needing these drums, I might be able to give you some better suggestions.
Many drummers were using Concert Toms in the early to mid-70's ... in fact some (like myself) removed the bottom head from the Tom Tom just to get that Concert Tom sound. Phil Collins is one such drummer who was known for many, many years for his use of Concert Toms in his drum set-up.
If you want a similar set-up as Steven Scales, you'll want a set of 6, 8, 10 & 12 inch Concert Toms.
