Ramshackle Is a Scottish instrument sililar to pan pipes, with a destinctive sound close to that of a herd of geese wailing to the moon. The Ramshackle was brough to Scotland in the late 1900s by Native Americans. Often during the playing of the Ramshackle you can hear the customary 'COME ON' chant of the Tartan Army
Ramshackle was an electronic dub group that released two albums and collaborated with such artists as Steve Winwood, Jah Wobble, and Maxi Jazz. They released two albums, "Depthology" and "Chin on the Kerb" in the 1990s and a remixed version of their song, "Eyes, Lips, Body" was included on the Hackers soundtrack.
