ringos beatle cymbals - Page 18 - Vintage Drum Forum

So what we have here is just a video full of speculation by some Fan Boy who actually knows absolutely nothing of substance about what cymbals Ringo actually played.

So then, how does this video actually advance our knowledge base as it concerns Ringo's cymbals? The answer is that it doesn't.

But someone who does know, and is the leading authority on the subject is a guy named Gary Astridge. (“Ringo’s Beatle gear on the road”; “Ringo’s Beatle gear at Abbey Road”). Who has "tried to set the record straight as best as possible, capturing the facts and discussing the gaps in our knowledge."

I spoke to him at the drum show. By asking him a few questions about some things that I've always wanted to know on this subject, I got authoritative answers and as a result I learned a lot from him.

There is a 18" Beverley crash ride with rivet holes available now on ebay. Beverley and Krut and Zyn were all connected somehow. Anyway, might be a cymbal of interest. Do a Beverley Ringo search in ebay, it will pop up.
