whoops, that was plamer james wasn't it?

Much as I like the Moody Blues, I don't think Days of Future Passed really pulled off the Symphony in Rock thing as well as In the Court of the Crimson King.

Is there a question pending? Foot^3, I think it's your turn.

Oh. yeah. Umm. gimme a minute ot two.

OK we all love Laurie Anderson's oh oh oh oh oh oh Superman like it was our own red headed stepchild, especially because she is using a vocoder.

But what I wanna know is how old is the vocoder technology? Not the exact same one that made Frampton so savagely overplayed in the 70s, but let's say, the granddady. Not so far back as benjamin franklin and his kite, more recent.

And for bonus, what was the big idea behind the vocoder anyway?

I'm guessing it was something that George Martin cooked-up in the Beatles skunkworks heyday? It's just a preamp, isn't it?

Vocoder technology was originally developed in the early days of telephony as a possible method of multiplexing several analogue voice streams over a single line...but I do not know the year.

Els has the intent, how about a decade if not a year?

Um...30's?

I love the Cellar for tidbits of information like this. You learn stuff without even trying.

OK Els. Close enough for the girls I go out with. You're up.

OK...easy one comin' up.

What do you have if you've got a pignose on your belt?

A pigtail on your shoes?
