Weather Report Medley Part 2
YouTube via digimaton | June 19, 2007
"Weather Report Live circa 1985, Domino Theory tour."
Some synth spotting with Joe Zaniwul.
He starts with the Sequential Circuits Prophet T8 and ARP Quadra. Rhodes Chroma comes in with the lead piano type sound at 2:18. You can see a Prophet-5 under the Quadra. Feel free to ID the rest.
via Chris Borman on the Rhodes Chroma list:
"The August 1984 issue of Down Beat described Zawinul's keyboard arsenal at the time of Domino Theory. Zawinul's stage setup included seven keyboards: an Oberheim 8 Voice, an ARP Quadra, an E-Mu Emulator, a Rhodes Chroma, a Sequential Circuits Prophet 5, a Korg Vocoder with auxiliary keyboard, and a Prophet T-8. The T-8 was Zawinul's newest instrument, an eight-voice synthesizer with a touch-sensitive keyboard. "I have as much control as you can have," Zawinul said of the T-8. "It's velocity- and touch-sensitive so when you touch down, you can get your own vibrato; you can preprogram your vibrato and speed." In addition, Zawinul used a Linn LM-1 drum machine, a Sequential Circuits Polysequencer, and various harmonizers and digital delay units. [DB84]"
You can find more vintage keyboard performances including Chick Corea on digimatron's YouTube channel.
