Oberheim OB8

Just a cool shot of the OB8 sent to AH from the "opening shot of the music video for "Sierra Leone" by Coconut Rough, from 1983." BTW, I checked YouTube for the video, and couldn't find it.

Update via Andrew in the comments: Here's the YouTube link.

  1. Will try and rip the vid and youtube it. It's not on there because Coconut Rough are a pretty obscure New Zealand one hit wonder. It's a great song though, and I'm keen to share it with synth heads.

    The keyboardist is wearing gloves because the band starts off playing outdoors all wrapped up with their breath showing, a la "Anthem For The Common Man". :)

  2. Also, anyone know what the stompbox is sittting on top of the synth?

    Seem to be an 80-series Ibanez. Yellow or cream in colour.

    Chorus??

    What the heck is it doing in the video when the synth's not even plugged in??

  3. Cool, if you rip it post back and I'll put up a new post if there's good synth content.
