"Improvisation is not an excuse for musical laziness" - Fred Frith

Well, I only said I wondered what would happen to it.
I think this is a legitimate question. Emerson's modular is a unique musical instrument. Not only that but it is historical one, as well, not just because of Emerson's use, but that it was built for and used at, if not the first, at least, one of the earliest live synth performances.
Can always count on you to nail down the details, Chris.
Music isn't about chops, or even about talent - it's about sound and the way that sound communicates to people. Mike Keneally
My original post about Rachel/Moog was nothing more than sentimentality, and was never intended to be realistic. I wasn't aware (and I'm sure that most here weren't as well) of the Emerson family tree, or would not have posted my knee-jerk sentimental reaction, tho' some did think it had merit.

Discerning all types of subtlety/intent from printed words when one doesn't have the advantage of reading either body language or intonation is impossible, though in the highly flawed world of cyberspace it runs rampant.
Man, do we need an en masse tutorial here about how to how to pull in antennae and remove corks from asses. Wish I was qualified to teach it, but I'd be a student as well.

Would you believe I haven't seen that movie in over 30 years?! My brother and I saw it in the theater in 82 or whenever it was, then I think I saw it again once or twice when it was first shown on TV, and I don't think I've seen it since. I had planned on buying the DVD boxset, but I didn't act fast enough, and after awhile, you couldn't find it a reasonable price (same thing with the Close Encounters DVD boxset).
