If you always think of the cowbell as some frivolous thing to be mocked by Will Ferrell, you need to listen to more music. This mighty percussion instrument is amazingly versatile! It can anchor a hard rock beat, it can spice up a latin jazz standard, and it can turn an ordinary groove into an all time party anthem. The fabulous cowbell is more than worthy to have it's own episode, and we couldn't think of anyone we'd rather have guesting on this one. The always affable Dustin Prince brought his trusty cowbell for some in-studio demonstration as we wrap up our list with picks 5-1 in Top Ten Cowbell Songs Part 2. Grab a stick and groove with us.

The cowbell is so much more than some silly sketch comedy bit. The cowbell is a must for any self-respecting drummer to own, partly because it's so versatile. Cowbells can be found in rock, jazz, latin jazz, funk, disco, hard rock and any other kind of music where people want to hear that delightful clang. Our good friend Dustin is indeed a self-respecting drummer, and he was kind enough to join the pod for one of those obvious but awesome topics we can't stay away from - Top Ten Cowbell Songs. Here in Part 1 we reveal picks 10-6 and Dustin gives us an in-studio live demonstration on how to give em what they want - more cowbell!

Shout out to Eric Idle and the Pythons. They ask the important questions, such as... Why are we here? What's life all about? Is God really real, or is there some doubt?

"I can always choose, but I ought to know that if I do not choose, I am still choosing. There is no human nature, since there is no god to conceive it. Existentialism's first move is to make every man aware of what he is and to make the full responsibility of his existence rest on him." - Jean-Paul Sartre

2024 is the perfect year to bring back this well-worn and well-loved topic of ours. Of course if we're talking existentialism and rock n roll, we need to bring back ATTT's very own Rock N Roll Philosopher, Sir Gabe Scalone. We're back with more picks that land somewhere between existential dread, existential wonder and a full-blown existential crisis. The good news is the music is sublime and this topic gives us a chance to take a few detours on our quest to find the best songs that ask the questions we all have about this weird life. Part 1 features picks 10-6.
