the natural sound of a cymbal

i am looking for recoordings which fearure cymbals.

besides maplesahde, can anyone suggest labels or artists which produce a very natural sound of a cymbal ?

i find the sound of a cymbal a good test of the upper midrange and treble frequencies of a stereo sytem and having a recording to use to evaluate the aforrementioned frequencies is an invaluable tool when listening after changing components.

thanks for your suggestions

While I personally couldn't tell you about cymbals, I imagine that any number of drummers could identify different brands in much the same way pianist can tell whether it's a Steinway, Bosendorfer or Yamaha.

Just because you can't doesn't mean other well trained listeners can't too!

I've read what you've wrote twice now and I'll agree with you that you can't tell the difference.
