George Harrison's Electronic Sound

I'm finally getting around to reading Analog Days, The Invention and Impact of The MOOG Synthesizer. I just read about George Harrison's solo project, Electronic Sound which featured the MOOG Modular synthesizer. I read about the cartoon version of the modular on the album cover and decided to look it up. Here it. You can find a couple more shots on this site.

Recording info:
Side 1: "February 1969 - Recorded at Esher in Merrie England with the assistance of Rupert and Jostick, The Siamese Twins. George - Moog Synthesiser"



Side 2: "November 1968 - Recorded in California with the assistance of Bernie Krause. George - Moog Synthesiser" Amazon links for each: Electronic SoundAnalog Days

Dave Smith on Keyboard TV

Title link takes you to the vids. When you get there, click on "NEW! Dave Smith" on the left. The Prophet '08 is covered.

Update: Dave Smith and the Prophet '08 is also featured in this month's Keyboard Magazine. It's worth a read although they imply the Prophet-5 was the first completely programmable polyphonic synth. Doh! See if you can name the synths with polyphony before the Prophet-5. The Prophet-5 was the first at something related though.
