    I like how Ringo's hi hat sounds the best on Happy Just To Dance With You. Through please please me, it sounds like Ringo has the hat closed through most of the songs, so it had that very Beat like sound I like.

    Cymbals are a set of instruments that creates a sense of atmosphere (My personal opinion). I didn't know that his cymbals were perforated.

    Contrary to the Ajax info here, this is something out there more plausible - Ringo used Stanoples for the Paistes in the early days... 18'' and 20''. you can see them on some early photos since their bells are hugggeee UFO type things. There also is a rumor that he used 14'' Arbiter 602 hats on the Please Please Me album.

    Nice video, I've always loved Ringo's cymbal sound but information has always been very sketchy. I bought some vintage zildjian A's off ebay and I found the sound to be a decent approximation (14" hats, 18" crash ride with rivets that I removed, plus a 22" ride with 2 rivets, maybe a bigger cymbal but I find it still sounds pretty close, a bit like Ringo's on "I'll cry instead")

    Hey Brendan, I know this isn’t the particular topic of this video, but I’ve been listening closely to Abbey Road for the drums and I’ve noticed that Ringo has 4 different distinguishable cymbal sounds (other than his hi-hats). There’s that cymbal on Come Together, which I can’t hear on anything else (I also noticed the drum sound in this song is quite different than the other songs on the album apart from entire tea rags on the drums), the cymbal on I Want You, Something, Oh Darling and the bridge in Here Comes the Sun, the other cymbal in the bridge in that too, and the Zyn Sizzle. I think that the cymbal played on I want You, Something and Oh Darling is what you said that A Zildjian & CIE is very close to, but I don’t know what those other two that I mentioned are, whether the mixing has differed their pitch and they’re actually the same cymbal or something and where else they are in the album. Do you have any ideas? By the way, I’ve been loving these drum videos so far, I’m obsessed with Ringo’s sound.

    Fantastic - more like this please! The ones where you talk are extremely valuable to many of your viewers. I'd also be curious about how you categorize the various Beatles tempos and grooves in your mind. Which songs use the same types of grooves; which earlier drummers influenced them; how you guy set the tempos for your videos (do you have the track in your headphones to match the tempo changes?). I've noticed after extensive study that Ringo, Hal Blaine, Art Jackson, Modeliste, and James Brown's various drummers all have a certain ebb and flow appearance when you look at their tempo maps.

    I had an uh-huh moment when you revealed your hi-hats as AGOP Xists. I recently went shopping at Drumtek for a 16" crash and we tried out numerous cymbals in the store to get that dry, medium decay sound I wanted, which was something Freddie Marsden might play, and the cymbal I settled on was an Xist. The guy who sold it to me told me that it was part of a budget pack of cymbals and he didn't know why it was out loose from the box. It's a cheaper cymbal but it was exactly what I was looking for.

  • @alunjones2185
    @alunjones2185 5 місяців тому

    Basically, whatever drummers could afford back in the 60s.
    Ajax was an acceptable ride cymbal for many starting out and probably easier to play than Kamala, Krut, and Zyn - all budget.
    Super Zyn would have been considered a luxury, although Avedis Zildjian was offered with Ajax and English Rogers kits.
    You would occasionally see Ufip cymbals. I read the manufactured five-star Super Zyn for Premier.
    I did also read, way back, that Ringo used Paiste cymbals - Dave Clark may have used them also.
    Apart from a brief time using Trixon drums, Dave Clark was essentially a B&H drummer - prigressing from Ajax to English Rogers - but then, of course, USA Rogers after negotiating an endorsment contract.
    Enjoyed you video, very much!

      yes absolutely. in fact, since I learn something new every time we record, I now believe it’s a misconception how Open his hi hats were. there is a bit more technique to that, the open wash was never enough to destroy the integrity of the cymbals.

  • @thomasmoje5926
    @thomasmoje5926 Рік тому

    Ringo also got a very unique 'trademark' washy sound out of his high-hats: many videos I've seen of Ringo riding on semi-closed hi-hats with a 'sweeping' motion of his right hand playing the hi-hat notes as opposed to straight 8th note hits on the hats. On many tunes the hi-hat ride pattern sounds almost like a ride cymbal with a constant 'wash' as opposed to just tight 'chicks' on the hats. I have a set of hats that closely approximates that sound: an old Zildjian 15" thin with rivets for the top paired with a heavy 'Zenjian' 15" hand-hammered bottom. Amazing the sounds drummers were able to get out of their cymbals before the plethora of cymbal choices available to drummers today.

  • @gehbw
    @gehbw 3 роки тому

    The crash at the end of Ask Me Why sounds like a rivet cymbal to me. I have a Zildjian "S" thin 20" crash. It's very bright and would also work well. You might have to wait a year to find the Ajax.

Geoff Emerick claimed Mal Evans set up the drums for Ringo after Andy White left.

    Didn't Mal Evans go get their strings and cymbals , sticks ? I've always been under the impression that they were none too picky about that stuff , it was " hey Mal , go get strings " or " we need another cymbal " . It seems that some of the best music was recorded using the worst gear , just my two cents . I'll go back to the shadows now..........

    • @LazerBrendan
      @LazerBrendan 4 роки тому +3

      Hey, you do mention good points but keep in mind, going out to a guitar shop in 1965 to buy two Fender Stratocasters (which mal famously did for example), would yield different results if the same request was made today, especially if the buyer was not the most knowledgable on the subject. Instruments were just better made back then and there were less options. Arbiter would supply Ringo with enough sticks, but it is still unclear how Ringo's signature stick from ludwig or arbiter came to be, the man himself does not remember. So basically, I think the beatles were picky to a certain degree but since instrument quality was so good back then, things did not matter as much. In terms of cymbals, Ringo used his ears and found some pretty amazing instruments that were as musical as his band was.
