Re: Bands that Use Moog
I have before me two obscure LPs: "Moog Plays the Beatles" by Marty Gold (AvcoEmbassy AVE33003) and "The Age of Electronicus" by Dick Hyman (ABC-Command stereo 946-S). Both have several Moog Modular pictures. Programming for both albums was by Walter Sear. For the ARP 2600 lovers (oops), I have Joseph Byrd's "A Christmas Yet to Come."
Re: Bands that Use Moog
I listened to Wally Badarou's music recently. Voices, Keys, Mambo, Hi life, Canyon, Endless race. I found the music very original and entertaining, with light arrangements, they add notes only when they should, the right stuff! I brought the cds to my car and I am very pleased with the music. Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into Mort Garson stuff now.Just Me wrote: You should look up some Wally Badarou and Mort Garson stuff. Pretty tasty.

Genesis - Polymoog (And Then There Were Three)
Re: Bands that Use Moog
Some things I've seen on various television shows recently:
Heart-Voyager
Black Eyed Peas-Phatty
Ceelo Green-Voyager
Robert Plant- Model D
White Stripes- Phatty
I think alot of the more modern bands, I see more Phatties than Voyagers.

Re: Bands that Use Moog
Mart Garson's music - ecleticist fresco of delightful phrasing and sound effects, featuring lots of Moog. Made me revisit psychedelia. I am eager to learn more about this intriguing character.

More interestingly imho, Maurice Jarre (although initially he considered the synth as just another orquestra timbre).glide wrote:Jean Michel Jarre!

Re: Bands that Use Moog
I could not find the name of the keyboard player, but in Cyndi Lauper's band All through the night (Live in Paris, 1987) there is a memorable MemoryMoog solo.
Although it is a curtis-based machine, it still retained some of the moogyness in its sound. There are other synths around the stage (DX7, Roland). Moog polyphonic strength was also its weakness sometimes: it speaks above everything else. Hard to mix with voice, even with some syrup on its settings.

I do not know the name of the performer either, I just know that the portamento patch was originally played by Peter Wood.Filipe wrote:I could not find the name of the keyboard player, but in Cyndi Lauper's band All through the night (Live in Paris, 1987) there is a memorable

Re: Bands that Use Moog
Man, don't even mention Coldplay! They use a voyager solely as a midi controller (at least when it comes to live performance)! It's disgraceful! (I don't mind a bit of Coldplay from time to time though).glide wrote:PHISH is great!
