Songs That Individually Introduce Instruments

Post by Star »

It's always fun for me to listen to these types of tracks. So post those that you can know. I can only think of two right now.

Lynn Tait and the Jets - Soul Food
(I have this also labeled as Lee Perry)
Black Disciples - Free Rhodesia
(great song because it also introduces the musicians)

Hey Star, on "Soul Food" most of the musicians are named as well, mostly by their nicknames!

Id not heard any of the songs mentioned here, i particuarly like the Ordinary Version Chap 3 and Free Rhodesia.

Slightly off topic, but can anyone tell me the track wich has Bunny Lee giving instruction throughout (like bring the drum in) and saying things like "go deh pablo" "dis one straight to channel 1 head" and such like?
Thanks
