I enjoyed that, but technically, two videos do not constitute a SLYT.

Yes.. This is a DLTY.

I don't care what it is -- SLYT, DLTY, TL;DW, or LMAO -- so long as more people use tractor as percussion. Thanks for this!

And, the first link reminded me of an educational-film-like short movie made in the late 50's (?) by an early multi-tracker, some middle-aged guy playing 6 different instruments... I could have sworn I saw it on MeFi. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Is this a double DLYT? At any rate I found these a couple of weeks ago, and the quartet one is my favorite YT EVAR. There's a part of my brain that thinks humans should spend more time doing stuff like this.
