Nancy's Secret Synthesizer


video upload by Light In The Attic Records

"Video by Hunter Lea"

"In this incredible BTS video from Nancy Sinatra archival producer, Hunter Lea, we go inside keyboard wizard Clare Fischer’s innovative deployment of the Yamaha EX-42 synthesizer on this truly classic release reborn anew. The clip breaks down how the EX-42 was used on songs like 'Arkansas Coal (Suite),' 'Paris Summer,' 'Tippy Toes,' and 'Friendship Train' by way of giving us a closer listen to some of those synth tracks via accessing of the original multitracks. 'It looks like some of the organs of its time, but this keyboard is a complicated analog proto synthesizer,' as co-producer Hunter Lea explains."

  1. Does everything have to be turned into an acronym today? Is it so physically straining to type "behind the scenes" that it must be shortened to BTS, and then I have to go looking for what BTS means, and have to wade through a thousand in-depth explanations of a Korean band I never wanted to know about in the first place? Was this information provided on Twitter or on a cell phone with limited characters per entry? What is the justification for contracting a normal phrase into an acronym that is so uncommon that it is not known by everyone? Laziness? Vapidity? An infantile need to look cool in front of the cool kids? What? You are straining my civility.

  2. It is difficult to think of the GS series as secret. Yamaha has them in their annual young performers competition to this day.
