    Great drummer. His first track with Maiden, Where Eagles Dare, erased any and all doubt.

      Technically it would have been Flight of Icarus as that was the lead single from piece of mind.

      Any other metal drummer would have said "fuck it" and did "Where Eagles Dare" with a double bass. Nicko considered it cheating and worked his ass off to do that triplet with one foot. Gotta respect his work ethic. Not to mention the guy absolutely loves playing the drums even after all these years and it shows every time he plays.

    @BandaDK I think its to make sure the ride doesnt crash. My boom stand loves to slant every so often and when it does, its impossible to crash. I guess its for people who just want a ride, pure and simple.

    @paokalexthes Basically a gong hangs from strings and has no center hole for mounting on a cymbal stand...a china is like a crash with inverted sides and has a center hole for mounting on a stand. What Nicko hits @ 1:05 is a china, what his is hitting @ 1:10 is a gong. Hope that helps!

  • @funkydrummer14

    PAISTE cymbals are in a class of their own...I just bought my first Paiste after 20 years of playing (2002 - 16 crash)......WOW...what an amazing and unique sound compared to the other big cymbal makers. I just ordered the 18" Giant Beat crash and can't wait to add it to my 1960's Ludwig Kit......Paiste all the way from now on!!
    Great drumming too by Mr.McBrain!! Loved his Paiste factory tour clips..check them out. if you never seen them!!
