"Ok. Well Are We Ready?" : 1987
Most of these were done with early drum machines (Roland 606?)
Or before got the next drum kit they were done with fake live drums:
2 timbales and a conga, vibraphone mallet on conga or big timbale
for bass and on the small timbale had a costume-jewely-pearl-necktie
laying on it for fake snare. A cymbal or 2 here or there. Started adding
to percussion collection, Some of this was "Pre-Korg-Poly-800" so was
still using RMI Electric Piano and/or Farfisa Combo Organ on some of it.
