Carlos was an electronic music pioneer and helped develop the Moog synthesizer. She did the soundtrack to A Clockwork Orange.

"Good knowledge."
-Gary Radnich

I did not know that. I dug both book and movie. As I recall, I think I wrote a paper on Plato's Republic, 1984 and Clockwork Orange in English 1B as a freshman.

Stanley Kubrick made the official trailer to the movie in perfect sync to Beethoven's 5th. He may have been the only guy to do something like that:

That movie was a bit too much for me to handle maybe I was too young …

Clockwork Orange trivia:


Gillian Hills, the actress on the left, had a hit French pop song in 1963 that was prominently featured in the series The Queen's Gambit:

^ that looks like pre-Wendy Walter Carlos...

Big fan of her work, and of the analog electronic psych era. Carlos had a short stint producing psych rock tracks with Childe Harold, in the same vein as The United States of America:

Malcolm McDowell was supposed to be in next Big Thing in the early 70's. He was my favorite actor back then. IF…., Clockwork Orange and O Lucky Man achieved cult status. Then a little problem reared its head. Malcom's drug and alcohol problems derailed his career and he contracted the Keef disease: aging 30 years in 5 years:



Keef disease is also known as Jan-Michael Vincent Syndrome

Embarrassed to admit this as a Led Zep guy, but I always secretly liked this song:

One of my favorite Kinks songs.

I'll raise you Ray Davies' salute to Canned Heat:

*It is primarily women that do Justice to Robert Plant's vocals.

What genre of music would y'all put these songs in

Imo, Daryl Hall & John Oats are super solid blue eyed soul pop.

Wu Tang were obviously big fans

Hall & Oates is Blued Eyed Soul

Billy Joel is Elevator Muzak (aka "Chick music")

Listen to this oldie. The way the vocals match the beat has always amazed me. To me, this song stands the test of time. It pops:

Darryl Hall with Joe Walsh doing Joe's best song:

Better than this?

I knew that was coming. I have no counter argument. I think it was Joe that recommended the guitar talk box to Peter Frampton. The rest is history.

Joe and Stephen:

They're both great songs. Very cool about the talk box intro

Thanks for the information

I knew my BI community would not let me down

I call anything by Billy Joel "NY/NJ Adult Pop"

This is hard

Some fine vintage Rick Wright.

More Southern Rock. I saw them perform this at the Oakland Arena in September, 1973, as a warmup act to the headliner, The Allman Brothers Band (both Duane and Barry deceased by then. Still good, however).





* "On November 11, 1972, Oakley had a motorcycle accident in Macon, Georgia, just three blocks from where Duane Allman had his fatal motorcycle accident the year before. Oakley was riding around a sharp right bend of the road on Napier Avenue at Inverness when he crossed the line and collided at an angle with a city bus making the bend from the opposite direction."

I often wondered if Barry committed suicide. Seems too coincidental. I heard he never got over Duane's death.
