    Bagpipes at the end of Meat Loaf's 'Everything Louder Than Everything Else' The opening of Jethro Tull's 'Skating Away on the Thin Ice of the New Day' features the sound of Ian Anderson making and drinking a cup of tea. Not a solo, but the kazoo in Jimi Hendrix's 'Crosstown Traffic'. The Blackmore's Night song '25 Years' is played on the hurdy-gurdy, with a bagpipe chanter solo in the middle. The end of Fleetwood Mac's 'Gold Dust Woman' features panes of glass being broken. Part of the 'Second Hand News' drums were actually played on the back of a chair. And 'Tusk' involved drumming on Kleenex boxes. And there's a Peter Green era song where they find that the sound of 'leg-slapping' didn't sound 'leggy' enough, so they used a leg of lamb!

    I can never tell, and I have a couple friends who make fun of my lack of terminology knowledge, bongos and congas and all the other ones. I don't really know what's what. With that in mind, I listened to the Beatles' And I Love Her yesterday and I've always been really fond of that song.

    BA: I think we got rid two moves ago, but I had one of those frogs with the sort of ridges on it's back and the stick. I've got a tambourine a couple of shakers. I had a rain stick, but see the frog thing-y.

    A Conga, I know, but still one bad song, and one of my favorites!

    BQ: Ooo, Lot's. Tambourines, Bongos, A Childs Conga, Wood Blocks, A Cabasa or two, Guiro, A floor Tom, and various rainsticks, etc.

    If you like bongos they you'll love the Incredible Bongo Band.

    Check out their great cover of "In- A-Gadda-Da-Vida"

    Dueling Bongos:

    They had two great albums in the early 70's.

    I don't think they have to bow to yours, Lol.

    BQ - I have Thundersticks!

    BQ- I have a Tiki Torch in the back of my closet. I'm sure that could be used as an instrument in some way.
