Tangerine Dream

A German synth trio had come to visit us called Tangerine Dream. They were promoting their new LP Rubicon (sic). I'd never seen so many keyboards and synths gathered in one place. The image became imprinted on my mind. I was sketching it for the next 6 months in the back of my exercise books, designing new Rigs and even getting my Dad to help me make some new cabinets for a Tone generator he'd brought back from work. I also made a play Mellotron from a Woolworth’s chord organ and my synth was a Rolf Harris stylophone".

Sounds similar to BM plays with MDF !

Btw Graham's done his nut...it was in 1975 that TD played at the Hard Rock

Ahhh sweeeeet. I'm guessing that this was before the introduction of the K-Tel Berlin School playset.
