On my way to work this morning I heard two awesome songs from the seventies: Rick Derringer/Edgar Winter's Free Ride and Grand Funk Railroad's We're an American Band. There was definitely some strong cowbell action going on in both songs and all I could think of was Will Ferrell (and somebody here's avatar) SNL parody of Don't Fear the Reaper by BOC.

So, list your favorite cowbell songs. Hopefully we can get the person with the avatar to do a guest appearance.

:D :D :D :D :D HAPPY FRIDAY!!!! :D :D :D :D :D

A song that contains the use of the most under utilized instrument in the industry.


The Cowbell.

OK....at first I was thinking of the "donga donga" sound, not the "tonk- tonk" sound. It's all so very clear now. 8)
