Just 3... Hey Eduard, This is just done with the 3 keyboards mentioned. The Micromoog did the sample-and-hold sound, Omni for strings and "Pipe Organ" sound and the Rhodes was from the Rhodes, of course. The Micromoog was mine (still have it but it doesn't work) and the Rhodes and Omni were borrowed from someone else in the dorm. Lots o' fun! :) --- Graham Metcalfe - Information Architecture and Art Direction Please visit my portfolio site at www.ghmetcalfe.com. Check out my latest song called Galaxy Band 8

Setup... I have absolutely no memory of how this was recorded...might have been off a small mixing board. All I know is that the tape I have is in REALLY terrible shape, so I was happy to recover this much sonic fidelity off of it. --- Graham Metcalfe - Information Architecture and Art Direction Please visit my portfolio site at www.ghmetcalfe.com.

sounds like you had your hands full damn good for "just winging it" especially with a crowd watching. sometimes pressure works! just listening to this evoked memories of the 70's and being up front to watch bands like yes, genesis, gentle giant, utopia, etc, doing the solo part of the concerts. thanks! you woke a few memory cells. and i thought i killed more then my share :-) Check out my latest song called November

Thanks for this one, Graham.... Bits remind me of some of Pete Townshend's experiments on the 'Scoop' recordings.... Just seeing what sounds are available and how they can blend or contrast wtih one another... It's a lot of fun to listen to... Drak is right... if this is from cassette, it cleaned up or lasted remarkably well... Ed Check out my latest song called Next Time Around (w/jiguma)

HMMM! Reminds of the heavily influnced keyboard craze of the late 70's I dig it man! Could have been the background music for a science flick i watched back in grade school on a rickety projector! I was always inspired by the music of those films! This is cool! Check out my latest song called STORM

Ah, the memories... Really takes me back to when I played similar equipment. I will say I never would have had the courage to set it up and improvise. You did well, and it seemed to be very well received. Thanks for posting this very nice moment of history. Check out my latest song called Just As It Is

Excellent Great stuff - love the fender rhodes sound.It reminds me of the first gig I ever did at school where I had the idea of taking everyone to a different dimension in school assembly at 8.30 am by submitting everyone to a rock song that had a church organ solo in the middle.If you still use OS 9 have you ever used a program called Muzys - I thouroughly reccomend it for keyboard players cos its great for recording changes in frequency over long periods and easy to plug in hammond/rhodes vsti's.I'm thinking of submitting an article about it at some point.Doesn't beat the real thing though.This is the first piece of heard of yours - I'll be back for more right after the drudgery of work finishes!

power to you for goin up on stage and doin it. I regularly do the band thang, but I only played once by myself with out the safety net of a laptop and MIDI :-) So to hear this, and think, "Man, this guy is doin this!" makes me smile and a bit envious, of your creativity and verve. Great recording for th era. Gotta love those analog strings and the Rhodes is to die for. One of the big suitcase jobs with the stereo speakers? now those were cool. Heavy in literal sense Check out my latest song called Texas stump

Love that Rhodes Yeah, I think it was a "Suitcase 77" It wasn't mine though... :-(. I eventually bought a Wurly, which was just not the same (but within my student budget at the time). Wish I still had that puppy now...I sold it after graduation, d'oh! Those were my gigging days, played in a couple of duets, trios and a 5 piece band (Vespoid). Miss those days... --- Graham Metcalfe - Information Architecture and Art Direction Please visit my portfolio site at www.ghmetcalfe.com. Check out my latest song called Galaxy Band 8

NICE____ Nothing quite sounds the same as the old vintage synths and a Rhodes electric piano. I am a huge fan of the vintage synths myself. I own a DX7 and a Roland D5. Sounds to me like you had a lot of fun back in the days _ not that you don't today (I know I did) Great job. Thanks for sharing, mvh :) Check out my latest song called Ease My Troubled Mind

Cool track - love the live triple play I studied the Buchla synth back in 78 and I can't find any of my tapes from the studio we worked in. Good catch on this one. Thanks for posting it to Analogapalooza. I heard a little audience noise - so this must have been a mic recording. Very nice at that. Check out my latest song called try not to think

Brings back awesome memories... Class of 78 here!!! Ironic that this is the first song on your list with the title of "78" tune after your comment to my post. I have listened to several and thought it was appropriate to post on this one. Graham, you are very talented and I have enjoyed listening to your music. I enjoy feeling like I am going on a journey with your pieces, and not knowing where it will take me, but enjoying the ride. I am very glad I heard yours. Thank you for sharing. I look forward to more. Check out my latest song called Sweet September

Like that bouncy feel A bit of Were Brother Were Art Thou, jews harp and it keeps getting interesting. Love the nostalgia feel you supply in your bio of this tune. The jews harp type feeling really brings strength to the tune, interesting organ sound, kinda between an organ and an accordion in parts, but then later when it keeps deep, it is of course an organ. Nice sounds Grahan! Thanks much for sharing ! Check out my latest song called Little Drummer Boy Variations

You Were Lucky To have owned your own equipment. Very Klaus Schultze/Rick Wakeman. Man, you're bringing back wonderful memories of those days. My synth work tended to be atonal in nature.

before my vacation to listen :-) Really fun improv... and shows that some of these sounds have come full circle as plug-ins, and almost sound "new" again :-) This cleaned up really well from cassette tape! Did you record this off a line-in (mixing in the audience), or off a mic? And a really nice piece of music to boot. So, how many keyboards/registers were you dealing with live? And did you have to take your socks off to play the Rhodes arpeggi-toes?
ttfn,
Drakonis
