Yamaha CS80

If you want to hear some great CS80, try Jethro Tull's "A" album from
the late 70's I believe.
I saw them perform this album in concert waay back then, and Eddie
Jobson was really great (as was Ian Anderson I should add).

Also I met Eddie a couple of years back at a seminar at the Society of
Composers and Lyricists here in LA. He was actually just in the
audience, as Phil Collins was speaking on his work at a screening of
BROTHER BEAR.  Eddie Jobson produced the choir work (A choir from
Eastern Europe if memory serves) for the film. Afterward we spoke a
little bit about his work on Jethro Tull and the CS80.

I haven't heard the "A" album, but I did go see Jethro Tull on that one 
tour, just because of Jobson being there. That's the only time I've seen 
Tull in a live show.  Eddie was fun to watch and see!

FYI, you may already know this... but apparently Eddie's got a new 
project band coming out called "UKZ" (which includes Trey Gunn of King 
Crimson!). He has a web page about it, a forthcoming album, and a "One 
City World Tour" concert for Los Angeles in Jan. 2008.
