Speaking of Hot Butter's "Popcorn", as I recall when the song was
first released in 1972, much to-do was made over it all being
recorded using a Moog. The string section in the middle however has
me wondering though....did Stan Free use 'tron strings for that part?
Or am I hearing things?
Inquiring minds want to know,
FS. Weller (when I'm done with my studio, #574 would look very nice
there)
