Posting because it's a slow day... Err...

Thought I'd share a quick sound file I put together with a couple of recent cymbal acquisitions. I wanted to hear how my '70s New Beats fit in with the older A Zildjians rides I recently bought. The playing ain't great by any stretch of the imagination - OK, the playing sucks - but I'm thinking this setup has some potential for acoustic jazz gigs.

14" '70s New Beats
22" hollow block ride (2100g)
20" '50s ride (2100g)

The 22" hollow block is the one I posted about previously in the "Today's gamble on the 'Used Cymbal' rack" thread; I've since added three rivets.

"I played with Holdsworth, Fripp, and Belew...I wish we drummers could play that differently. Drummers are starting to homogenize into the same guy, which frightens me." - Bill Bruford

I found a 30" 1970 Zildjian last week. I can't get it till this Thursday short on the cash. It is almost perfect, I mean like new. Has the Ziljian engrave from that era. Nice, Hope they still have it I can't wait to added it to my equipment.

I gave up on finding a Stewart Drum Kit.
Came across a Black Orange County & Percussion set (New in Box). 6 piece Avalon with hardware and extra 2 ply heads for all drums with a three year accident replacement coverage.
Now I can leave the vintage set at home, it was starting to show ware.
