this is the ride tha the great Jack De Johnette , John Marshal, and so many other Jazz great used in the 1980's.
It started with the Formula 602 "Dark Ride" cymbal in the early 70s. This cymbal was developed with Jack DeJohnette. In 1975, Paiste introduced the Sound Creation as a cymbal line.

The first series in 1975 shows a small Paiste logo an inch away from the ride bells. Hi-Hats were Dark Hi-Hat and Dark Sound Edge Hi-Hat, 10 types (rides etc.) in total:

Short Crash (18")

Here it is what "Rarevintagecymblas.com tells us about the cymblas: http://www.rarevintagecymbals.com/cym...
The Sound Creation Darks are definitely a breed apart. Great stick definition on top of a vast array of dark and subtle tones. So sweet.... Nothing else sounds quite like them, and Paiste stopped making them... This one is in excellent condition. Sounds great. Looks great. Is great.
This Sound Creation Dark Ride sounds soooooo good. She's from the first generation with the stamped logo and hollow-font designation. She is also in great shape with strong logos. Her edge isn't perfect, but absolutely nothing you couldn't take home to mama. I really can't say enough about how this particular SCDR sounds. Perfect....freakin' perfect.
