Super Ry 71 Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 'Set The Controls' isn't an instrumental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard It On The XM Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 "Great Gig In the Sky", "Any Colour You Like", and "Interstellar Overdrive" (all by Pink Floyd) are my favorites. "Great Gig In The Sky" wasn't an instrumental, unless of course you consider what amounts to an extended fake female orgasm to be an "instrument". Anyway, here are my favorites: Jeff Beck Group, "Beck's Bolero" Genesis, "Los Endos" (especially the live version at the end of Seconds Out) GTR, "Sketches In The Sun" (actually a Steve Howe solo, but it appears on the one-off GTR album) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chinchu Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 I'm not trying to contradict you all but a voice is also an instrument... So I think every song is "instrumental"... My own opinion... That's all.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viaene Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 I consider an instrument something you can learn to play. But if you can't sing (like me) you such can't learn (I tried ) as for song: I'm a fan of "Explosions in the Sky", they make great instrumental music.

chinchu Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 Sorry to differ from you, but you CAN learn how to sing... Maybe you couldn't learn, just like the thousands of people that try to learn other instruments and fail... The human voice was the first instrument, and it is the purest because is the only natural one... Everything else is artificial... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 While I see what you talk about, chinchu, I'd have to say that music with singing isn't really what people think of when they hear the term 'instrumental'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I did say it was my own opinion.. Of course everyone thinks of instrumental the way you do... But it's is actually a mistake in my opinion...

Levis Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Nah... I think it's just in use because no one could think of a better word for 'songs without singing.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Baloni Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Careful With That Axe Eugene is pretty much an instrumental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuzikTyme Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Even though the following song is from a TV show it remains one of my all-tyme favourite instrumentals. Great lead! Nice theme But before I forget, I'll mention (rest his soul) Billy Preston... Outta Space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazooka Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Uncle Joe's video for Jimmy Smith's Walk On The Wild Side got YouTube's 'terms of use' heave-ho, but it definitely deserves a reprise. You don't hear much this "big" sounding any more. Jimmy and his B-3 drop in around 2:42. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
