Mellotron and Sitar

Someone gave Smith a sausage bassoon for his birthday in March, he now wonders why he ever bothered before with the kazoo. It features throughout the album, filling the spaces like Dylan's harmonica.

Mandolin, ukelin, or both.

An electric monstrosity created by a drunk Blaney that Smith misplays by kicking.

some kind of modern stylophone, ..., hand-held jap gizmo fingy

Spoons.

Or perhaps something like the harmonica on Couldn't Get Ahead, one of the many high points of the '83-'85 Brix era.

I think we will get a pretty standard drum / guitar / drum / keyboard sound. I'd love to hear some woodwind on it though.

roofer's nail gun

Time for some woodwind.

Indeed. Nail gun's are woodwind i think, but i'm still hanging out for a Rackett.

Ummm... righty-o.

I far prefer Drjohnrock's posts from the halcyon threads of 1 - 27, all of which centred on the unsurpassable Brix years in the '80's.

Eye-liner.

The time has come for long...

Tuba Solos!

Didgeridoo (hasn't been used yet, has it?) featured on track "No I did not read 'oo'".

I'd love to hear a harp on a Fall record. Having a hell of a time imagining it though.

would love to hear a Cornet on a Fall tune.

Very Phoenix Nights, though.

Actually, forget the cornet, would love a Joe Meek style special effect, like a hammer smashing a bath.

Bagpipes; belated onset of Edinburgh Man-ager

Ukelele! That's perfect! There's going to be a Tiny Tim cover!

Uh, not trying to dampen your enthusiasm, REX, but the word I used was "ukelin". It's an entirely different instrument than the ukelele. Look it up on wikipedia.

I'm not questioning your authority, sir... But regardless you made me think of a ukelele and I ran with the idea. -_-

That grand piano has never embellished English Scheme, right? Why not a new song? :huh:

As they say across the pond, REX, steady on. I didn't think you were questioning my authority--just thought you might have given my post a very quick perusal and misunderstood what I wrote.

That said, I'm certainly not opposed to ukeleles or a Tiny Tim cover. But why stop with just a cover? Though the marvels of modern recording technology, let's have a MES/Tiny Tim duet! Can't you hear it now? "Tiptoe through the tulips with me-uh." It's bound to be better than the bizarre video of Hank Williams and Hank "The Best Part Of Me Ran Down My Old Man's Leg" Williams Jr.

Dedicated (casio-type) keyboard for MES.

(Not an unusual instrument, I know, but I love his keyboard-playing.)

( + a cymbal on a stand again.)

P.S. I've never seen anyone look wronger playing an electric guitar.

I can't work out why.

Anyone?


.

Actually, Mick Jagger looked even wronger playing guitar.

.


Wow.

I can imagine it,but I've never seen it.

Any images, or YouTubes ?


.

Madonna with guitar, 'tis an abomination to behold.

.

P.S. Maybe he'll have to strap it on again soon. I heard, a couple of days ago, that he'd sacked

Ronnie Wood. Is that true?




MADDONA!!?!?!! .....the very idea!!!

Images of either, please!


.

I found these for starters.





I thought 'Madonna with Guitar' might also have turned up some sort of Rennaisance /Cubist hybrid, a collaboration between Michaelangelo and Braque, but it didn't...

:)

:applaud: :applaud: :applaud: Thanks. :applaud: :applaud:


Still laughing as I type...... :applaud: I remember a guy I met saying that he'd taught her

guitar a few years ago (London). Forgot 'til just now. I imagined it to be an acoustic, though.

(....although he was a 'shredder' ).

Wow, thanks again....sooooo wrong!!!!



.

Mick hasn't played a guitar live on the last few tours, maybe he will have to strap one on again. Astute 'gear-heads' will notice that Jagger's Jaguar guitar is the same model as Pete Greenway's, only a different color... B)

.


I think his only chance is with the Rickenbacker 'Fryingpan'.


This is not just a cheap jibe about age etc., I think it's worth a try.

Even then, it might not work....

Bluegrass mandolin.

A zither.
