Reminds me of the SNL skit featuring “Behind the Music: Blue Oyster Cult”, in which the manager keeps yelling, “I need more cowbell!” to a more than eager Will Ferrell.

Best. SNL Skit. Ever.

My favorite line from Christopher Walken, playing Uber-producer Bruce Dickinson:

Guess what? I got a fever! And the only prescription... is more cowbell!

I always imagined I could get a magic bit of software that could remove the cowbell from endorphine machine, Apollonia from Take Me With U and half the overdubs on Days Of Wild.

Has the cowbell been removed!?!?!?!?!?!?! eek biggrin

Actually, I don't mind the cowbell or the sound effects too much on the released version of
Endorphinmachine. The thing that ruins the song for me is all the keyboards overpowering
the guitar riff. It just robs the track of it's 'rock'iness. If he felt he needed to add more
instruments to it, he should have added more guitars instead!

Ah, how I remember long ago.... when I'd never even paid attention to the cowbell.... I was quite happy with this track....
But, oh no - all y'all just had to come along and start bitching about it...!
Now that damned cowbell's the only thing I can hear on the track!!!

You've ruined..... EVERYTHING!!!

The guitar riff is a straight rip of "Smoke On The Water" with a slight variation.

The cowbell does sound amature-ish

The best part of the whole song is the final scream at the end of the track.
