    Greg Howard playing Charmed life on Chapman stick - That first melodic bit, lovely!


    I fell for this too...how hard can it be, right? ;)
    Too hard. I bought a chapman stick. Wrestled with it for years before finally putting it aside. 

    Will try again one day, but it's been 10 years in its case now .....

    Piano - Bohemian Rhapsody 
    Keyboards - Jump
    Whenever I hear Bohemian Rhapsody I always wished I'd learnt to play the Piano.

    Piano Mike Garson on Bowie's Aladdin Sane 'Lady Grinning Soul'. Still stunning every time I hear it.


    Also with @Fuengi  Mandolin on Copperhead Road but also on Led Zeppelin 'IV'  Battle of Evermore.


    The version by Heart is pretty damn good too

    St. Thomas by Sonny Rollins. Got the jones, bought a cheap tenor sax, learned the tune from start to finish, and played it obsessively until I got the most horrifying jaw ache ever. I was in pain for weeks. Got very scared, sold the sax, end of the story. But what a ride.

    The late, great, Tich Gwilym not only made me want to learn to play a Fender Stratocaster, he became friends with some South Americans in Cardiff and his side project Los Ionisos (also known as Los Guapos) started me on a minor obsession with the Charango.

    I eventually got one, and can find my way around:

    Love the sound of these things, but I would like to learn some South American music on it.

    If I didn't already play keys, Pink Floyd's Sheep would make me want to play electric piano.
