Moog was one of the first synthesizers as well, and provided a deliciously
but annoyingly surreal sound that got old fast.
Is "Incense and Peppermints" Mooged? I don't recall.

don't forget: Moog rhymes with rogue.
RCA built one of the first modern synthesizsers in the early 50's.
It took up a whole room. and could only play one note at a time.
Programmed by punchcards no less, not a 'keyboard'

I guess it all depends on how you pronounce "rogue"...
Is it "roog" or "rohg"?

Moog is pronounced with a "long o".

righto. The "other" pronunciation makes him sound like a cow.

lots of good music in the 80's, Blue Oyster Cult, J.Geils, Blondie, Huey
Lewis, Hall and Oats, Robert Palmer...

Blondie's Parallel Lines (their major opus) was relesaed in 1978.
And although J Geil's Freeze Frame was released in 1981, the overwhelming bulk
of their work was during the 1970s... they broke up not long after Freeze
Frame, if I remember (maybe 83?).
BOC had four studio albums in the 1980s, at least that are still availabl via
CDNow, but only two were important, and those were in 80 (Cultasaurs Erectus)
and 81 (Fire of Unknown Origin). But since Fire has "Burnin' for You" and
"Veteran of Psychich Wars," I'll grant you BOC. ;}
Hall and Oates produced radio fodder crap in the 1970s, then went on to
continue in the 1980s. Their LPs are nearly unbearable to listen to, being
spaghetti dishes of throw-it-against-the-wall, let's see what sticks.
Huey Lewis. NSync for the 80s. Better music than NSync, but pure
entertainment.
Robert Palmer. Don't get me started. I'm glad he's faded back into oblivion.
But you're right, lots of good music in the 80s. Of the 6 you listed, you only
mentioned 2 of them, but hey... ;} Maybe you're following Hall and Oates'
formula for success.

Just cause you don't know good music when youy hear it. You would probably
dump on my canary yellow western cut leisure suit as well. ( and don't forget
the fried egg pea soup green nylon sirt that went with it.)
Oh...wait..
my mistake, that was in the 70's

Canary yellow leisure suit? Why didn't you say so? And here, I though you
didn't have any taste!

NPR's "All Things Considered" ran a review of Peter Gabriel's album OVO
yesterday. The clips they played mostly sounded like a Peter Gabriel
pop album, so I'll probably get this. I nipped into Borders last night
hoping to get the copy of OVO which was there on Sunday, but I guess
somebody else heard the review.
Still no sign that the album will get a US release. I may just order it
from amazon.co.uk, since they sent me a three pound e-mail coupon.
SKR Downtown has a copy in the window but they usually close before
I manage to get there.
