Theresa's comments

Rockthrow used maracas when we performed live our version of the Monkees' "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You".

Unfortunately this was only played live and not recorded. Here is the Monkees' version

A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You

Lyrics

Walk out, girl, don'tcha walk out
We've got things to say
Talk out, let's have it talked out
And things will be okay

Girl, I don't want to fight
I'm a little bit wrong, and you're a little bit right
I said girl, you know that it's true
It's a little bit me, and it's a little bit you, too

Don't know just what I said wrong
But girl, I apologize
Don't go, here's where you belong
So wipe the tears from your eyes

Girl, I don't want to fight
I'm a little bit wrong, and you're a little bit right
I said girl, you know that it's true
It's a little bit me, and it's a little bit you, too

Oh girl, I don't want to fight
I'm a little bit wrong, and you're a little bit right
I said girl, you know that it's true
It's a little bit me, and it's a little bit you, too

It's a little bit me, it's a little bit you
Girl, I'm gone, no no no no no
Girl I'm gone, no no no no no
Hey, girl

It sounds like they are using a wood block (or hand claps) and a tambourine but Jamie used the maracas (little mini hand-painted things) that I brought home from St. Croix, VI. One of them came off the handle because they weren't made to stand up to the force Jamie was using. He felt really bad but I pointed out I still had one so no real problem.

In the photo is the remaining maraca and a weird little drum I brought home from Mexico.
