    O/T What's your all time favourite instrumental piece of music?

    Through the years since I was born way back in 60 I've been brought up on some great instrumental music, as vocals weren't always required.

    Some may say Albatros by Fleetwood Mac, or Carlos Santana with Samba Pa Ti (to the young ones that's the Marks and Spencers advert music) and many many more which I hope you will contribute to this thread.

    For me during my childhood I often heard this piece of music and even now it always reminds me of being small,long school holidays, blazing summers with long tall grass, Clifton Park with the paddling pool and the donkey rides, stop laughing

    Anyway I digress, go on have a think of an instrumental you can quickly relate to from way back when and post it on here.

    They say variation is the spice of life and it will be interesting to hear others choices.

    Here's mine....

    Very modern to say the least and everyone has a choice.

    I like the big band stuff as well. My dad likes Stan Kenton - a bit more progressive than Glenn Miller. This is one of his signature arrangements (no doubt a hit with our most illustrious poster - a put down that never gets old)

    Liked Telstar as a little lad. I'm gonna go all hippy and say Theme One by Van Der Graaf Generator though I'm sure there are others I've forgotten,
