Cheap Instruments. (Getting Down With My Bad Self.)

In an idle moment I decided to use all the cheap/crap instruments I've acquired over the recent past to record a piece just for fun.

So, that line up would be:
Winsor Whirle Banjolele. A cruel egg-slicer of an instrument that is virtually impossible to tune.
Blue Moon Tenor/Baritone (still not sure which) ukulele.
Biscuit Tin Broom Pole Slide Bass. Proving to be one of the funniest instruments I've ever played.
A Washboard.
Hmmm, now that's what I call broken!

N.B. No alcohol was consumed during the recording of this piece but a substantial amount needs to be ingested in order to facilitate anything like enjoyable listening.

Yas, Yas, my favorite kind of music. Homemade. This may be my new favorite instrumental and everyone knows I have impeccable taste.

It's proving quite popular!
It's in C to make it easy for everyone to join in with.
I whack the sound up and extemporise on my tin kazoo.
I may try primal screaming after another couple of pints of Badger's Breath (Un) real ale.
