Flicking through the channels last night I came across the Jools Hollands show featuring the Spaghetti Western Orchestra, what an individualistic band, heard nothing like it before, and it is a tribute to a great series of movie themes.

The Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain are pretty unusual (& good!) if you've ever heard or seen them.
I too enjoyed the Spaghetti Western Orchestra when I flicked onto the Jools Holland Show.
If you liked them, look up Seasick Steve who has also appeared on Jools Holland a couple of times.
He uses an old $10 repaired guitar, with only 3 strings, and an old wooden box to stamp on as a kick drum.
But boy is he a great song writer.
I'm sure he's on youtube somewhere. _________________ Is ready to hibernate

Not so much a weird band, as it is latin music, but the concept album that was released where classic Kraftwerk songs were given a latino bossanova makeover, on paper it shouldnt work, but somehow does.
Altogether now, 'We are showroom dummies, cha-cha-cha....'
Found a couple of tracks on Youtube if anybody is interested:
If it's strange bands you want. They don't come much stranger than Mike Patton(of Faith No More fame) and Fantomas! I've had the privelige of seeing this lot live! A baffling experience, but a great one all the same

I was going to put up their version of The Stones' Miss You, but it was a bit mainstream. _________________ Winner Galway 2008 Comp
