"Teenage Wasteland" (actually named Baba O'Riley) has a lot of references if you Google it. There is an audio interview with Pete Townsend somewhere out there where he reveals the entire process. Don't forget to listen carefully, Townsend is moving around a lot on the keyboard -- this is not just a simple hold down the keys and let the arpeggiator play it song. Google kindly provided this excellent site: http://www.wbtracks.co.uk/synths.htm Here's a snip: I\ufffdd always thought this was programmed into Pete\ufffds huge modular ARP 2500 synth/sequencer. It certainly sounds like it could have been! It\ufffds hard to believe that the sound we hear on Baba O\ufffdRiley is really a Lowrey home organ. The model Pete used was a TBO-1, but for anyone wishing to recreate Baba O\ufffd Riley, just pick one up the following models to do the same job: TLO, DSO, TLS, TSO 25 and HR and GAK (seems to be the nearest). Pete is using a setting called \ufffdmarimba repeat.\ufffd <SNIP> ... go on and read the rest yourself. Also download the audio demo of the banjo repeat on the Lowery - amazing stuff for 40 year old technology. eee - Edward Edwards http://www.ezekielswheel.com http://www.untiedmusic.com/ezekiel > -----Original Message----- > From: AN1x-list@yahoogroups.com [mailto:AN1x-list@yahoogroups.com]On > Behalf Of bjork011963 > Sent: Saturday, January 14, 2006 2:25 PM > To: AN1x-list@yahoogroups.com > Subject: [AN1x] Crazy Who sounds > > > I was just wondering if anyone had had any luck programming the synth > sounds used by Seal on his song,"Crazy" and the Who songs, "Won't get > fooled again" and "Teenage Wasteland".
