Mort Garson - Electronic Hair Pieces - CD

Sello: Fifth Dimension

Mort Garson was the master of the moog and a pioneer in electronic music from the late 60s and 70s where he participated in some unforgotten projects such as Lucifer, The Zodiac, Ataraxia and Plantasia. The following review centers on his album "Electronic Hair pieces" from 1969 on which he tickles your senses with instrumental adaptions of the songs from the musical "Hair". He performs all the tunes on a contemporary moog synthesizer system even with electronic percussion. Since you might recognize the one or another melody even if you have never experienced the original musical but all in all these adaptions may feel slightly bizarre to you.
