Test For Echo- Rush

I'm a Paiste fanatic but must admit that 22" ride he used was something special. I cant find anything that quite sounds like it. Its one of a kind (dont tell me its a Custom A, its not and not even shaped like it).

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

Rehumanize Yourself:

Ghost In The Machine has great sounding Ride all over it. Sounds best on Vinyl- the original not digitally remastered, pure analog uncompressed real sounding Ride is just ear candy!

That's what I'm talkin' about!

Dire Straights - Sultans of Swing.

This song always comes to mind when I think of a song in which you can actually hear the ride cymbal. (There are very few.) Funny thing, though, I don't care for this ride sound. I suppose it works for the song and I don't dislike it, but it's not the ride sound I usually like.

 

[Old Drummer]

Do you know what cymbal this is?

 

[Old Drummer]

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned my favorite bell song. (It's also the only song I can sing).

Do you know what cymbal this is?

I've always seen him use A Zildjians or eventually K, so I presume it must be a 20" A medium ride or a K heavy ride. It sure sounds a lot like this K heavy:

 

[Heartbeat]

I'm obsessed with this band right now, partly because of the ride. LOL! My guess is it's a 22" Kerope Medium? I'm a Paiste freak, but I love this. Chris Powell on drums.

I’m not the only one to think of Stewart Copeland, but my first thought was Synchronicity 1.

 

[Elvis]

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned my favorite bell song. (It's also the only song I can sing).

Hey! Yeah!
...and if you're going to mention that one, don't forget it's NY cousin....

I love the dark ride in the Prodigy's Poison, which might be electronic:

But its just a ripoff of Purdie:

[Nubs]

Love the ride sound on this one. Wish I knew what kind it was:

Mr Steve Jordan

 

[River]

The ride comes in at the 55-second mark. Funky!

[Tornado]

Do you know what ride Steve Gorman used on that? That's about perfect for me. It's probably hard to know what he used in the studio that day.

Not a clue.

Although it's not a cymbal I would personally ever use, the Earth Ride at the beginning just sets the tone for the entire song.
