Pretty self explanatory. I’ve limited my list to ten - even though it’s pretty eclectic. There are many many more that I could add but will be interesting to see if they come out in others lists.
Green Onions – Booker T & the MG’s
Orion - Metallica
Transitions – Beastie Boys
Futura - Battles
Youngblood – Russian Circles
Tontankamoon - Bzark
Dummy – Jesu
Pink Eye on my leg - Ween
Instrumental – Faith No More
Last Bongo in Belgium – Incredible Bongo Band
No ‘Wedding Cake Island’ ?
Boooo…
I like many.
For those that are into progrock instrumentals, check out Ozric Tentacles. ‘Coily’ is a great track, among many others.
Oh - and something a touch heavier - Liquid tension Experiment.

I nearly put A.O. - VspyVspy, but techically it has lyrics.
Instrumental Song is not a real thing. By music definition a song has words. Instrumental piece would be better.
As for favourites;
Camellia, off The Rose soundtrack.
Thread title updated for Soulnet. He seems to be fairly pedantic about these things.
I’ll also add: Fugazi - Sweet and Low, as well as any of the Meters’ instrumental pieces.
Albatross, innit
I assume we're excluding classical?
Yeah, I think classical could probably have it’s own thread, and think it does.
Should have been a bit more clear about parameters. Thinking more along the lines of popular/rock etc.
Oh yeah! Faith No More - Woodpecker from Mars.

It’s the bitterness in me for not pushing for a career in music.
