I think at least a small part of the reasoning behind the 'no synthesizers
used' message on the Queen albums was the fact that Brian May was very proud
of the guitar sounds he had created (and justifiably so), and wanted to let
people know that they had all been created exclusively on guitar. 

BTW, speaking of electronic processing "fads", my daughter likes to listen
to the Disney Channel... I've never heard SO MUCH over corrected vocals in
my life! Song after song sounds like a robot singing. I hope that either a)
my daughter's taste in vocalists matures as she does or b) pitch correction
software gets better and doesn't make everyone sound like a cheap vocoder on
sustained notes.
