RE: Monica Crowley at the Berlin Wall: "Walls Work"

in #politics8 years ago

Nice song! The actress the video producer got for "Nikita" helped too. :)

Speaking of '80s-era Elton John:

He was one of the few '70s superstars who managed to bend to the '80s. (One other was Bruce Springsteen.)

Sort:  

He didn't get to be called Sir Elton for nothing.

And then, of course, there is Cher. Five decades of hits.

Interesting fact about Cher: she was the first (chart-topper) to use AutoTune:

At the time, it was exotic. Now it's...uh...er...ubiquitous ;)

Cher - proof that old farts rule!

But Peter Frampton invented the genre with his talk box as heard in Show Me the Way and Do You Feel Like We Do?

Amazing. I hadn't seen that.
My first memory of the technology is the Moog Synthesizer.

And of course, we can't forget the synthetic instruments of Tubular Bells!

I guess I should have put "music" into the tags... :)

Wow! I didn't even know that engineers could pull that off back in the 1970s. Was the tech based on the Mellotron?
