Moog Music Forum

I just heard this incredible recording from Annette Peacock called I'm The One. It's from 1972 and it's pretty mind blowing. It seems like she did all this processing of her vocals through some sort of Moog system. Does anyone know what she was using? I read somewhere that she convinced Bob Moog to give her a synth after the sucess of Wendy/Walter Carlos! Was it a Modular or a Mini? It seems to have some ring mod and filtering on it...

According to a website about her
http://www.imtheone.net/annettepeacock/intro.html

The synth was given to her in 1968. That puts it 2-3 years before the Mini was introduced. It would have to have been a modular. Thanks for the original post. Yet another Moog artist for me to seek their entire catalog.

Wow---Pretty good work. It's seems like a track called "Pony" from the recording is pretty easy to find on the web in MP3 form.

I had always understood that Peacock used an EMS sysytem to treat her vocals. She would've run her mike into the Pitch to Voltage converter, and that triggered a VSC 3, or just straight into the External input of the Putney.
Is that album available on CD these days?

I remember I'm The One. The version I heard was from an album she did with Paul Bley, in which she sang and Bley treated her vocals. He used a Moog modular of some sort.

I can find out more if that doesn't give you the start you need.

Andrew,

Thanks so much. I would love any info you have.

I believe there was a reissue but it's once again out of print.

If all else fails and the album isn't available, I should have a copy somewhere that I could make an MP3 file from, though I can't guarantee how good the quality will be.

BTW there was another album that I can't see on the site I've linked to. I'd recommend it, from what I remember of it (I haven't heard it since about 1978. ) I can't remember the title, but the first song begins:

I'm looking for someone,
someone who wants to see and can.
Nothing's alive anymore,
except the universal plan.

And the second or third track is called `Climbing Aspirations.' That should be enough to identify it.

I think that was the first Bley/Peacock collaboration. There's a photo on the front of Peacock singing, with Bley with a Moog modular system, if memory serves me correctly.
