Robert Moog invented the Moog synthesizer in the late fifties of last century. The impact of an affordable electronic and versatile instrument for the production of music has been big, Moog has become a household name like for example the hoover. Albums referencing the Moog in the title or even name of the performer(s) are numerous. In this week’s broadcast, we join the Google celebration (lame of us, we know) of the 78th birthday of Mr.Moog.
Oh, we sliced in some non-moogy stuff as well.
