I spun the CD once again before answering. Yes, percussion, including tablas, and Bjork's voice are the key elements. But bass, guitar, drums, and keyboards, and the wonderful harp, all have presence. This is not several species of Ludwig Drums gathered together in a cave and grooving with a Bjork. -- Marek P.s. The harp song is "Like Someone in Love", and the song I want you to compare with Debbie Gibson's side 2 of _Anything is Possible_ is the one that follows, "Big Time Sensuality".
