Members Planet Beef Posted August 8, 2006 Members Share Posted August 8, 2006 That early band was pretty good. They had killer synth mixed with some good guitar playing and singing. Good songs too. Was that a Phophet 5 or something like that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the title may be 'Take me to the Top' or something like that 'What's a poor boy to do, when he's fallin in love with you' Ya take me to the top, take me to the top .......

Members eric Posted August 8, 2006 Members Share Posted August 8, 2006 I'm looking at the Nov 1982 issue of KB Mag now. There is a photo of Doug playing his rig and this is what he uses: - Yamaha SS-30 String Synth- Prophet 5 x 2- Yamaha CS-50- Yamaha CP-70- Roland CE-1 Chorus There is a part of the interview in which he is asked why he chose the CS-50 over the CS-80. He states that the "...CS-80 is huge and the 50 sits nicely onto my piano. CS-80s are beautiful instruments, but I don't want to have huge piles of keyboards all around."

Looks like Mike Reno was turned loose on the buffet line a few too many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
