I knew that #^&#^&#^&#^&ie Betts was allegedly, uh, "inspired" to title the song by the name on a gravestone, but I didn't know that Duane was buried a short distance away. Duane died well after the song was written. Maybe the family and Gregg bought that plot as an appropriate place to plant him, tho.

The legend is that #^&#^&#^&#^&ie got laid under Elizabeth Reed's headstone and that's what inspired him to write it :D

Instrumental, couldn't pick just one but I love:
"Cliffs Of Dover" by Eric Johnson
"yyz" by Rush
"Eruption" by EVH
"Switch 625" by Def Leppard
"Mr.Scary" by George Lynch
Also , gotta mention "Intruder" by Van Halen, although it may be considered just an "intro" to Pretty Woman.
And I believe "Everlong" is a song (a great one at that!).
Songs:
TOO MANY TO LIST! :D :D :)johnny "tRB"

Moby #^&#^&#^&#^& is a good instrumental by Zep
Divided Sky is a good instrumental for the weather channel
But I have to say one of my favorite instrumental songs is Dracula by Medeski, Martin and Wood
I've heard a couple Space/Drums that rank up there as well.

Ever listen to Galactic??

Captian Fantasy by Ween is another great one...
