David Lindley Y Wally Ingram – Twango Bango II (2001)

David Perry Lindley (born March 21, 1944, San Marino, California, United States) is an American musician who is notable for his work with Jackson Browne, Warren Zevon, and other rock musicians. He has worked extensively in other genres as well, performing with artists as varied as Curtis Mayfield and Dolly Parton. He has mastered such a wide variety of instruments that Acoustic Guitar magazine referred to Lindley, not as a multi-instrumentalist, but instead as a "maxi-instrumentalist".

Lindley has an extremely large collection of rare, and to the majority of Westerners, unusual looking and sounding instruments. There is a large and detailed display of quite a few rare guitars, as well as instruments that originate from the Middle East and other parts of the world. Lindley has listed and categorized many of them on his website but admits that he has "absolutely no idea" how many instruments he owns and plays, having gathered them since the 1960s.
He has toured as a solo artist, and as half of a duo, first with Hani Nasser, then with Wally Ingram. He also played on a multitude of studio sessions. Between his work in the studio as a session musician or on tour as a sideman or bandleader, Lindley has worked on learning new instruments.
Great studio release from the mighty duo. With such classics and personal favorites as King of the Bed, Jah Reggae, National Holiday, Talk to the Lawyers Again, Sport Utility Suck, Jodi, & Little Green Bottle... Alot of variety here and overall a nice mix of the fun songs and excellent musicanship you'd expect from these guys.
David Lindley is the guitar savant who marked most of Jackson Browne's early items with his superb playing.
"King of the Bed" is basically a novelty song but has an infectious guitar riff. One of those songs you get stuck in your head and hum all day.
