Animals in Music

Our furry and feathered friends entertain us with sounds both funky and fresh.

Take a Deep breath album Take a Deep breath

Gez realised he had made a mistake, and was already on the phone to the entertainments agency to request a different job, preferably with an organ grinder.

Nobody Knows The Trouble I’ve Seen album Nobody Knows The Trouble I’ve Seen

Bill was a gifted blues player, but you had to be careful if you sat in the front row to dodge the bits of half-chewed banana coming out of his harmonica.

Bertie Beats the Bongos album Bertie Beats the Bongos

In meregue circles Bertie was a legend. By using his ears as well as his paws he could make the congas sound like an orchestra.

Pucker Up album Pucker Up

The new member of the band fitted in almost too well.

Plodding Along album Plodding Along

Although he had a natural ear for a tune, it had to be admitted that Seth was better at ballads than up-tempo numbers.

On The Slope album On The Slope

Once more, this time with just two arms album Once more, this time with just two arms

Blowin’ in the Wind album Blowin’ in the Wind

Charlie had been asked by his neighbours to find a place to practice where he wouldn’t disturb them. It was a solitary existence, being the only saxophone playing squirrel in the world.

Crazy rhythm album Crazy rhythm

Biff was said to have the fastest bass drum pedals in the world.

Thelonius Chipmonk album Thelonius Chipmonk

Respected both as an innovator with both rhythmic and melodic insight, Thelonius still searched for that sound. He called it the Call of the Wild.
