Queen, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, The Who… One of the first songs I learned to play on the bass was “My Generation” by The Who, but of course without the fast parts : ). Then my brother…

    Still on the post about new horizons… Iron Maiden Somewhere in Time (1986), the first album on which Harris, Smith and guitarist Dave Murray used guitar and bass synthesizers. I wrote last week that in the 80s almost no musician wanted to do without synthesizers and samplers. Sure, some did, but in my opinion, you should try new things to avoid getting bored eventually😎. Cheers Carsten

    and the 2nd…

    Hi! Here we go… Of course, a single synthesizer wasn’t enough to play seriously in a band. The keyboards from that era, the Korg Delta hit the market in the late 70’s, were quite limited and, in some cases, specialized. There were keyboards designed solely for string sounds, such as the Solina String Ensemble. or…

    Hi! My first synthesizer, the Korg Delta (DL-50). It must have been around 1984 when I, or rather my father, bought this synthesizer second-hand for DM 1,000.00 :O. What can I say… just: WOOOOOW!!!!!! A dream come true! I finally owned a synthesizer. A real one—not an organ or anything like that, I already had one of those. This massive…
