Re: Playing the Moog: Best Way to Learn?

Well, whenever we were in his car, he was either playing Flashlight, Atomic Dog, or Higher Ground. Though over the years, I've grown to prefer Dazz Band, SOS Band, One Way, Zapp, etc. Being 18, I'm extremely disappointed with what my generation calls "music", but whatcha gonna do? I'm alre...

Re: Playing the Moog: Best Way to Learn?

@EricK My grandfather was a huge Bernie Worrell fan. I remember watching him play this thing and just being in shock at how amazing it sounded compared to all of the synths I'd heard.
