Hiall. I would just like to pay tribute to this wonderful man who's instrumentshave inspired most of us over the years. He died yesterday 21st Aug. Readmore here..http://www.caringbridge.com/cb/inputSiteName.do?method=search&siteName=bobmoogThoughperhaps slightly off topic. The story of Moogs and Mellotrons have beenclosely linked over the years. How many of us have had a minimoog on topof our trons? A classic combination in my view.A true genius who's contributionto music over the latter part of the 20th Century will undoubtedly go underratedas far as the general public is concerned. But not so here I think.Godbless him. Andy KP.S: American ABC-TV gave Bob Moog about 60 seconds airtimebeforeHello Again everyone,
Will be watching the media channels today for a story or hopefully
some mention of Mr. Moog's life and contributions. Sincerely,-- Jerry Korb
the ending of today's World News. Mention made of the Moog synth,
from electronics tech-lab to renowned musicians . Mention made of the
Beatles, Doors, but not "Switched-On Bach"......Included a recent photo of Bob seated at a MiniMoog with several more
progeny encircling him. Anybody happen to see this shortnews story??
Anything else on other networks or cable/sat. channels ?I guess a fitting tribute is Wakeman's rendition of Handel's "Messiah"
on MiniMoog-D and Tron voices....... A great 2nd is Tony Banks/Genesis'
ending of "Cinema Show/Aisle Of Plenty " on MM-D and Tron voices.....Thanks Bob, for helping to change the style/sounds of music forever!
Here's to ya, and God Bless.....Cheers, -- Jerry Korb ( Moogless in New England.....)
