"Hold on tight" - on Yamaha HE-8


YouTube via organfairy
"Originally played by ELO in a somewhat more rocking style compared to this allmost Barbie-like interpretation.
This time I use the old Roland TR66 Rhytm Arranger for the beat. It is all analog so it cannot be syncronized to anything - except if someone adds it as a retrofit. So everything in this video had to be played manually using multitrack technology.
And before somebody points it out: Yes, the arpeggio on the Roland synthesizer is inspired by the Telex version of "Twist a st.tropez"."
