Artist:	KINGSLEY, GERSHON
Title:	First Moog Quartet
Label:	AUDIO FIDELITY
Format:	LP
Price:	$11.50
Catalog #:	AFSD 6234LP

Exact repro reissue of this milestone in live recordings of electronic music, originally released in 1970. Kingsley had Robert Moog build three more synthesizers just so he could pull this thing off. The Moog Quartet played the first live performance of synthesized music at Carnegie Hall to a confused audience. This record includes a cover of "Eleanor Rigby" and Kingley's own "Miracles," featuring a line-up of children on vocals. Still genuinely removed from normative notions of time & space.

Catalog #:	WLP 002LP

1999 reissue. "Reissue of the first album by German-born composer Gershon Kingsley. Originally released by Audio Fidelity in the late '60s, this record introduced him -- previously known for his Moog concertos at Carnegie Hall -- to the record buying public. Kingsley is one of the original Moog pioneers, well known for his collaborations with French maestro Jean-Jacques Perrey & as composer of the famous '72 hit 'Popcorn.' This album features the original 'Popcorn' as well as other Kingsley originals such as 'Hey Hey,' 'Sheila,' 'Trumansburg Whistle' and some Beatles covers like 'Nowhere Man' and 'Paperback Writer.' A full blown Moog extravaganza, a collection of catchy songs, easy melodies, robotic rhythms and a wide array of frequencies; synthesizer tones which buzz, twitter and twine."
