Talkbox songs...
« on: April 26, 2010, 12:00:38 AM »
Just wondering if anyone knows of some cool songs that have talkbox in them.  Besides the obvious Peter Frampton and Bon Jovi, anyone know of some others?
For those who don't know what a talkbox is, it's the tube that guitarists put in their mouths to make their guitar sound like it's talking.

Alice in Chains - Rotten Apple
Alice in Chains - Man in the Box

They have others as well, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

Wrong forum.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

'The House That Jack Built' has the coolest talkbox guitar solo I can think of. Just badass, I love it.

Yeah, I have. You can find the song 'Mister Selfish' on the 'Music' page: www.blendedandbottled.nl

It's pretty difficult, so I haven't used it in a live setting.

No post for the godfather of Talkbox, Peter Frampton?

I second Pink Floyd - Keep Talking

and I always liked when JP busted out the talkbox on the Lines In The Sand solo during some shows.
