First thing I thought of was that Latino band---So funny you already mentioned them but been loving that subway band for years in NYC--AGUA CLARA!!

Live version of Sierra Quemada on Hackett's Somewhere in South America--has what sounds like a pan flute--it's not the best live version of the song because of it lol

Some South American bands, like Sikus, use the pan flute in their ethnic influenced rock music.

Been curious about this for some time. There is no reason that more traditional world  instruments can not be used. The Progressive genre of the 70's did make a mad dash for all kinds of instruments you would not consider in a rock band just for the unusual or exciting and exotic sounds they made. I quite like some more traditional Andean music and came across Los Jaivas some time ago. Here you will find everything from keyboards to traditional pipes of all sorts. They combine rock with traditional Andean and some of it can become fairly Progressive.

Here's a preview of one of Los Jaivas tracks. It's a track Los Poderosa Muerte from their Alturas de Macchu Picchu album of 1981.
