Back in the eighties, if you were around then, there were some amazing times in terms of electronic gears releases.  The music industry was turned on its ear much more so than with the advent of the internet some two decades later.  We take a trip down memory lane to listen to some of this gear from recordings made back when the gear was actually invented, so we get not only an insight into the sound of the gear but also the marketing angles and - in some cases - cheesy humour.
