The Rarest Cymbals in the World with Gerry Porter (Hazelshould)

Author: Bart Vanderzee October 3, 2023 Duration: 1:10:23
Gerry Porter deals in the finest drums and cymbals in the world at hazelshould.com, and he shares his immense knowledge of ultra-rare, famous, and valuable cymbals with us in this unique episode! We talk about what makes the Istanbul K's so rare and sought-after, the power of a celebrity owned cymbal (Tony Williams, John Bonham, Roy Haynes), and rare cymbals that aren't just the usual suspects, such as hi-hats, splashes, and crashes that you should be on the hunt for! Gerry also gives us the scoop on what he thinks is the next thing in the drum world that will blow up in value and be a collectors item.
