Travelling Tunes

In which Dr. Zemke brings in a personal favourite: the Fender Rhodes keyboard. With a host of killer tracks to chose from, which made the cut?

In which Dr. Zemke had trouble narrowing down her picks for ...the cowbell. While not all present can agree the sound is reminiscent of 'Heidi and her alpine herds', all agree on the solidity, power and utter tonk it provides. Get down. (And she thought we wouldn't like this week's instrument...)

Featuring a special appearance from Mike's favourite ever band, Dr. Kirsten tells Mikey and Sarah all about the steel pan (caveat: don't call it a drum, you rube), known to the New Zealand Academy of Steel Pan as 'the sound of sunshine'. Fair enough.

In which Dr. Kirsten tells Mike about the vibraslap and how it all started with the humble ass. Also featuring: three pretty outstanding example tracks + Sarah getting called a slapper. Charming.
