Demo! (first in a series)

A Roland CR-8000, a piano, a shit-tonne of echo, and Phil Collins circa 1980.  Sounds incredibly modern.   Click here or watch below.  I had a CR-8000 alongside my TR-606  for some years; I had it midi sync’d via my MSQ-700.  I still have the MSQ and the TR, but the CR-8000 was transmuted into ‘RENT’ sometime around 2001.  Miss it.  I paid $25 for it at ALTEL on Main Street in Bridgeport; they are tough to find for under $500 these days.
