Could it be a similar situation that's heard on the Boston Tea Party recording?

I think this may have been around that time. Mick, John, Peter, Danny and Jeremy all play on this CD although the copy I have has no liner notes and it actually only pictures Mick, John, Peter and Jeremy on the cover shot. All three guitarists/vocalists perform on the CD though.
This is why I could never figure out who was doing what when it came to "Green Manalishi". I heard the strong bass in the middle and then the congas and the hi-hat cymbal and bass drum. Knowing it's not physically possible for a drummer to play the hi-hat in that way as well as play the congas, I was puzzled as to who else might be involved. Once I got involved with this discussion forum, I figured, what the hell, I'll ask!!!
