Cool post. Brian Eno played the minimoog on “My sex” as well as other tracks off the first Ultravox album. I have it up on my site if you want to give it a listen. Love your site.

I’ve been pronouncing it wrong also.
never realised Kraftwerk used Moogs either. that song sounds warmer and less mechanical than others I have heard by them.

love that Beach Boys song.

Cool, Brendan! I am one of those (no doubt intensely annoying) people who has until now pronounced “Moog” MOOO!g… Believe me, this is not the first time I’ve gotten egg all over my face! Forgive me if I’m starting to sound like “Alan’s Psychedelic Breakfast”.

Great sonic illustrations of the MiniMoog at work, and interesting technical specs. Cheers!

Great post! I love anything related to the Moog. Hearing these cuts leads me to believe that The Residents made heavy use of this instrument in their early days.
