>From DPRP: Rick Wakeman is to feature in a new DVD documentary film "Moog: A >Documentary Film" by Hans Fjellestad. Gary Davis from The Artist Shop writes: "Robert Moog has been inventing and building electronic musical instruments for nearly half a century. MOOG, the film, takes us inside the mind of this legendary figure as he shares his ideas about creativity, design, interactivity, and spirituality. To this day, Moog continues to shape musical culture with some of the most inspiring instruments ever created. MOOG features interviews and performances by Keith Emerson, Rick Wakeman, Bernie Worrell, Charlie Clouser, Gershon Kingsley, DJ Spooky, Stereolab and many more. DVD extras include director's video notes, deleted scenes, interviews, additional performances and Arturia Minimoog V software."

Had a chance to see this documentary at the La Jolla Museum earlier this year with Hans moderating,provifid additional insight, and answering audience questions. You'll be disappointed if you're expecting much about the instruments themselves, but elated at the look at the man behind them: educated, funny, insightful, and a little out there at times. Very enjoyable. Rick is...well, typically Rick while chatting backstage with Bob Moog.
