Silver Bullet - used yirdaki played by Larry Winiwini

This yirdaki is an old one that has been used by various Yolngu yirdaki players in Arnhem Land. Its entire length has been covered by silver duct tape, hence the nickname I have given it: Silver Bullet!
The way Larry plays this yirdaki is astounding. Wonderful syncopation with simple but effective use of the half-beat.
