The two mounted toms sounded untuned (like bottom and top were not tuned together). When recording drums the room is important - reflections can ruin the sound from a good kit. A ceiling cloud is often needed, but the smaller the room, the worse it can be.

what mike and vv said.
to my ears and tastes they're all tuned too low and so... sound flabby w the pitch fluctuating like a spun roto tom.
if someone insisted on tuning that low .....getting the top and bottom heads playing nicely together is a must to reduce wolf tones.
