I love that piece of music in the first vid but never knew who it was by.

Mick Ronson - "Slaughter On 10th Avenue" (Rogers & Hammerstein), 1974. From his debut solo album of the same name, recorded with Bowie's Spiders From Mars (with Aynsley Dunbar replacing Mick Woodmansey on drums, as on on Bowie's final Spiders album 'Pinups') and of course Mike Garson on brilliant, otherworldly piano, this song became Ronno's trademark track, usually closing all shows - post-encore- from his Hunter/Ronson years until his death. Sublime: witty, playful, sorrowful, and that guitar tone...

Hello,

Los Straitjackets. Check out most of their catalog (first three albums) - very surf-ish and rockabilly sound. They're now teaming up with Nick Lowe, so not many more instrumentals. Here's a couple of early tracks.

I was watching The Manson Tapes last night and they used (what I presume is) the original version of Time Is Tight as backing music.
