Well, Moog definitely mentioned (on the Fresh Aire interview a couple of
months ago) it as being the first use of the Moog on the West coast. I don't
remember hearing it (if I did it was only once), but the way Moog and my old
EM instructor described the album, it might be more appropriately described
as the first comedic use of the Moog synthesizer. Another way to look at it
is, how do you describe a "pop album," does popularity enter into it?
