Moog Break! (’72 – ’77)

Today: some Moog-bits circa the mid seventies.  Above: the Polymoog.  And below: one of my fav recently-unearthed period-tracks featuring a Polymoog.

Above: The Sonic Six of 1973.  Sure I know ELP, but Paintings?  The Mike Quatro Jam Band?  Anyone?

Above: The same bros.  Now with MiniMoog.

The Micromoog of ’77.  Not a ton of control options on this lil’ guy, but they are still affordable at around $700usd.  I should probably pick one of these up before they become as unaffordable as the most of the other vintage Moog models…

1972: Keith Emerson and the MiniMoog.
