Cow bells

[maccyp]

One of my favourite tracks of late is LCD Soundsystem - Daft Punk Is Playing In My House and particularly loving the use of cow-bells in it�then watching Glasto footage I noted some cracking cow-bell playing in Doves' There Goes The Fear�any other notable tracks featuring this (hugely under-used, I think!) instrument to cement it as my new favourite instrument!?

Cow bells were used in the intro to 'Bring Me Edelweiss' (by Edelweiss, 1989)

I love a good cowbell, me!

Soundgarden used one to great effect to accentuate the beat in the middle section of 'Spoonman'.

Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Two Tribes circa 1984 ??

[Aschenbach]

Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear the Reaper

If you can, watch the famous Saturday Night Live 'More Cowbell' spoof of this song with Christopher Walken.
