1. In his silent way

2. Joe Is Playing The Pepe Here

It's a one-of-a-kind instrument built by Korg. I always wanted to try one, but Joe had the only few they built.
It's wind controlled, with pressure & velocity controlling volume.
The notes are done with square buttons, like an accordion but larger.
It had MIDI output, so he could control any electronic instrument with it.
Awfully cool.

3. He had amazing musical sense

I always liked how he would play seemingly repetitive phrases that never repeated.
