Zorch at Sussex University 1976


flickr by basilb

"Basil and Gwyo at the end of a Zorch concert at Sussex University in 1976. The show was promoted by Hamish Macdonald who also took this photo.

Equipment consisted of 3 EMS Synthi A synthesizers, 2 EMS KS Sequencer keyboards, an EMS DK2 keyboard, an EMS Synthi HiFli effects unit, an EMS Frequency Shifter and a Sony reel to reel tape recorder for echo.

There was also a full lightshow provided by John Andrews and Mac Moody, sadly not visible in this photo due to the use of flash.

PA system was by Tony Andrews who went on to found Turbosound and now runs Funktion-One."

  6. Fashion note: Basil is wearing a string vest and Navy trousers from Laurence Corner (RIP). Gwyo is sporting gold sparkly wellies from Biba and a homemade knitted jacket and wooly hat.
