take 5 - dave brubeck 5/4 meter
Rush...
Free Will goes into 7/4 and 6/4 meters
La Villa Strangiato goes into 7/8, 3/8 & 6/8
I believe even Tool goes into complex time meters.

Listen to bands like "the dixie dregs" they frequently change time signatures. Terrio Bozzio when he played with Frank Zappa had a song called "the black page" it is an insane lesson in using all four limbs in diff. time sigs.

you should try bill powelson's school of drums...it's what i used when i was first learning drums. he's got audio files on there so you can hear songs that are in different time signatures, and you can hear different beats and stuff. there's a paid section, but there's also a free section that lets you access a lot of stuff.
here's the link:
