What's your favourite instrumental?
Jump to: Newest in thread
There's some great ones from the 50,s / 60's.
Wipe out, nut rocker, red river rock , revelly rock, various by tunes by the tornados the shadows et Al.
Tones of classical tunes as used in movies like the original roller ball and the organ piece by James mason in 20,000 leagues under the sea. Oh it's endless. |

"The theme music to Where Eagles Dare. That's a cracking instrumental 
That is a quality choice. One of my favourite movies.  "
But pure fantasy; the helicopter that lands in the castle yard was not manufactured until decades after the year in which the film is set; but was popular in the year the film was shot-1968! |

Stranger on the shore by Acker Bilk: a hit in 1962, and the theme tune to a long forgotten series on TV from 1961, about an au pair living on the south coast of England.
The star was a famous actor called Richard Vernon, whose you would easily recognise! |

A favourite is impossible to choose. I love Vivaldi's Four seasons, I love James Newton Howard's instrumental of Nothing else matters, I love one of my gym class songs, Great spirit by Armin Van Buuren.
They are all wildly different so not comparable. |

Depends on my mood but Always with me always with you - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VI57QHL6ge0 - hits the spot or for more more upbeat Satch Boogie - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bVrUDqvLGbM - both by Joe Satriani. |

Great tune, but personally I prefer 'Aria'. |

"Some great choices already. I would just add two others:
Baker Street - Gerry Rafferty
And for the more classically minded:
Also sprach Zarathustra - Richard Strauss"
Pretty sure there are words in Baker Street? |

"Robert Miles - Children
(Wondering if I've misunderstood the assignment as can't believe nobody has mentioned it?)
Definitely my favourite dance/trance track. "
There's words in that sung by a lady. |
