Just before i got divorced from the first wife, i used to collect early Analogue Synthesizers, had quite a collection, EMS, Moog Modular,ARP 2600 etc etc..Lost the lot, i saw the remanufacture EMS & bought a VCS-3 for old time sake, my fave synth anyway.I had a studio downstairs in the basement Giant soundcraft mixer, Otari multitracker, Studer/Revox 'PR99' i made quite a few tapes, the 960 sequencer on the Moog Modular was a handy tool.It was Chris Franke eat your heart out

All gone now.I would never ever afford that lot again.

Here's a 960 copy..This clip is every bit as good as say material from TD 'Cyclone' album..

Notice the 2x Revox A77..
Left on Floor: ARP 2600, EMS 'AKS' to the right,
Top Moog Modular cabinets..Probably IIIP's
Below that left: Micromoog, Minimoog at the right of the micro
Can't make out the middle keyboard (he's controling the Moog sequencer tempo with it anyway.. The bottom looks like a PPG.
To right that lot a rare white faced ARP 'Odyssey' Mk.1
I can hear a Moog 'Taurus' bass pedal somwhere

Ok just watched this what i recorded Friday.Not bad at all, showed the rioting in Germany 1968 & the birth of Krautrock, get footage of early Amon Duul & Amon Duul II..cool shots of the Zodiak club..Not too much on Ash Ra Tempel which is a shame, can Kluster Tangerine Dream..A bit too much highlight on the Electronic side of it all, the very early clips of Kraftwerk were ok (Yes they had a proper drummer then) as soon as the tinky tonky Kraftwerk was on the programme hit the stop button. Goodish programme but typical BBC garbage.Absolutly nothing i didnt already know.
