So TIL that Farian did the intro percussive riff to Daddy Cool by tapping on his teeth with a pencil. https://www.revolvy.com/main/index.php?s=Daddy%20Cool%20(single)&item_type=topic … (My fave of this genre remains Buckingham credit for playing a "Kleenex box" in Tusk.)

Thanks for the new find. Anouar Brahem IS amazing. Going this instant to put on Le pas du chat noir. (Those rabbit holes are sometimes cool, no?!)

I live for those rabbit holes (!) and have a looong Brahem playlist in my earbuds this morning while reading/editing stuff...
