Only the ones that are confirmed real instruments not electronics qualify for my scope.
So far I know that Alan Parsons, which was involved in the Art Rock of the 70's with their "Tales of Mystery and Imagination" album in 76 continued releasing albums right through the 80's that contained real instruments. Last one released by Alan was 1999.
Synths kind of took centre stage in the 80's so instruments were not very common in rock/pop I don't think.
I could use a few more though - keep them coming and thanks.
Could use a couple more current ones as well I guess.
