For trivia,the Mick Jagger/Rolling Stones Big Moog was sold to Tangerine
Dream around the "Phaedra" area and you should try to get a copy of the
"Performance" soundtrack,you'll be really really surprised.Mick Jagger can
do something else than singing,a whole lot different than the George
Harrison "Wonderwall" noodling.

While on the subject,try to get original Columbia/CBS recordings of Morton
Subotnik.It's not Moog,but Buhla synthesizers,you don't know what you hear

greetings filip
