Im sure his polymoog still works and he has all the money he needs to fix it.

Voltor,
Yeah I found those old reels in the attic. Thats my Poly of corse, and that was my impulsive keyboard tech. :lol:


Herbie Is one of my all time favorites. I have a mix tape of his in my car thats been there for about 2 years plus. I tell people that im holding Herbie Hancock hostage in my tape deck.

So THAT is what they sell on Moogarchives.com then. THe CD rom with Chick Herbie and Luce.

Interesting.

I got to get my hands on some Herbie DVD's with the Headhunters. I coudl watch that all day long.

I would get a tv for my car so I could finally let him out of my tape deck and chunk the mix tape lol.

I'm sure that clip is taken from the South Bank show (a weekly arts prgramme in the UK) which featured a special on Herbie...
