EML oddities at Ebay/ some questions

EML oddities at Ebay/ some questions

2001-11-08 by Mike B (digiboy)

Any EML experts here?

I've been examining the scans of the EML boxes up for sale at Ebay right now.
The seller admits he is no expert and they are being sold as is but they
appear to be made by EML....maybe.
(BTW---I have no personal interest in buying them as they are up over $400
now with 4 days to go... as is? no thanks)
As an EML aficionado I am curious to know about these little beasties.
You can see a scan at
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1482797646 and he
has more detailed scans here: http://www.wasteoftime.org/josh/synth/

They look believable as EML pieces and they do say "Electronic Music Lab".
Here's the curve ball: you can just make out a company name and address on
some boxes and it appears to be "Turner Inc., Port Washington, N.Y."
All other EML gear I have seen gives the address as Vernon Connecticut
with no mention of any "Turner."

So does anyone know the story? Are they very early EML? Later EML? Bogus EML?

I don't think they're EML as the nameplate on the EML beside me says
"Electronic Music Labs", plural, rather than singular. I don't think
Turner Inc was trying to counterfeit EML gear; "Electronic Music Lab"
would be a logical label. I also don't think the seller is trying to
cheat people; I suspect it's an honest error.

George is gone

So sad to lose a beautiful spirit.

We still have the memory of all those great and funny moments starting with
the Beatles.

And we have his artistry.

Thank you George, I will listen to some of your music today and drink a
toast to you. Goodbye.
