Focus on MOOG, Bob and his invention the Moog Synthesizer. Starting early 1950’s Bob’s apparatus had a lasting impact on music production. We will not repeat information about Moog that is widely available on the internet, but instead play a variety of Moog-ed music.

Moog and nothing else.. well that is.

Edge2.158 Drugs + Internet Failure

Topic of this week: Drugs, but then the program was plagued by internet connectivity problems. Bill Cosby quizing children about drugs, a mad American clergyman raging against LSD, Kraut demons, a paddoman, Dope and Glory by Bea Foote, Stoned Muppets and BIll Hicks. A comprehensive list? Not likely.

If this weeks installment didn’t get you tuned up, we don’t know what will.

As usual, link below, enjoy.
