How About Songs w/Ride Cymbals That We Liked?

[JazzDrumGuy]

This is Gadd at his best starting 7:27.....

 

[JazzDrumGuy]

Don't You Forget About Me on the 3rd outro when he lays into that killer ride pattern at 5:55.....

Message in a Bottle at about 3:20 when he starts doing the bell patterns:

 

[p83]

jim gordon - why does love have to be so sad - live version.

 

[BennyK]

jim gordon - why does love have to be so sad - live version.

I think he used his ride for most of the song ," Low Spark of High heeled Boys " .

 

[Drumbelly]

A few come to mind. I like the ride sound Bonham got on “What Is And What Should Never Be”. Also love Ringo‘s ride/bell sound at the end of both “Hey Jude” and ”Let It Be”, and any of Jim Gordon’s recordings.

I mostly don't notice good cymbal sounds on non-jazz records, I just notice when they contribute to the vibe at all:

Black Dog is a good one, especially for the bell sound:

Also Roger Hawkins on Chain of Fools:

Father O'Blivion, bell sound again:

Rehumanize Yourself:

The electric piano solo on Steely Dan’s Black Cow.

OK, maybe the ride cymbal is in retreat but there were some magic moments.

My all time favorite - sounds like each note is being lifted out of the cymbal by the stick. Roger Hawkins.

& John Densmore made tasty use of his ride:

(Don't remember this music video)

And Charlie Watts

The Temptations- Ain’t too proud beg
Paul Wertico’s Paiste Flat Rides on any Pat Methany tune
Steve Smith’s ride bell on the outro of Any way you want it
Steve Gadd’s ride on the Chick Corea(rip) album Friends

 

[DavedrumsTX]

Love Mitch Mitchell’s ride on Manic Depression

 

[DavedrumsTX]

Abacab Genesis and Phil Collins’ first two solo albums.

The ride bell on the song Abadab.

 

[DavedrumsTX]

Way back in the day ...

Taping the ride cymbal really helped on this one ...

I like these two...

 

[Paistekid]
