In this BBC Archive short from 1969, Derek Cooper introduces the Moog modular synthesizer.
The clip is from Tomorrow’s World, originally broadcast 30 September 1969.
When this was originally broadcast, the Moog synthesizer was just starting to reach a mainstream audience. Switched On Bach was released in 1968, and it was at the top of the Billboard Classical Albums chart from 1969 to 1972. And in 1969, it was used prominently on The Beatles’ Abbey Road.
Nice peek through the eyes of the past
These documentaries won’t have the same flavour of history and nostalgic purpose if the acquiring by InMusic churns out a flop down
RIP Robert Moog
Hope they don’t disappoint your life’s offering to world
Home movies at the old folks home again…. zzzzzz
I still have my copy of The Nonesuch Guide To Electronic Music …
also mostly applicable to Behringers System 55 eurorack modules.
