There's actually a tuba solo in this excert of Blood Sweat & Tears performing "And When I Die".

BS&T are one of the few bands to have a full time tuba player.

...ooh just watched the clip and there's even a cowbell being played at the end, but that's already been covered on its own dedicated thread

Well played sir! And there was me thinking that 'Waiting for a Tuba' was an obscure 1980s indie single that I just couldn't find on Youtube!




Mind you, it does rather show why Tuba solos are relatively rare...........!

Right, let's take that as covering all synths and similar, eh? If we start going through all the various models that Roland, Yamaha and others have produced, I think I'd lose the will to live!
