What a great show. It was recorded at the Wythenshawe Forum, Manchester, UK in the early '80s. Two wonderful players and the dawn of a brand new age in Yamaha sound... A few years later we were back in Manchester with the amazingly talented Mr. Kubota and a very young Martin Harris who has become known the world over for his work with Tyros/Genos. Good times!
When was this FX produced? What a sound! I still remember a demo of the Electone-1 in Southern California in the late 70's. The musician was recreating the soundtrack to Star Wars - his fingers were flying over the multiple keyboards, his feet were playing the bass pedals, this fellow was completely in motion! I remember the crowd around him in this shopping mall (outside the music store of course) And we were all in awe. A memory I will never forget. I'd imagine these units now are just electronic waste, but back then - spectacular!
This looks like a Yamaha Electone Festival where musicians compete for money prizes, ( I was in one in 1982) Why does she never use the small 3rd keyboard. This wonderful Electone has 3 manuals, for something like this "it is a must to use it if only for one solo" I detract point for missing this.
@@billbergen9169 Kashiwagi was one of the best electone player in the world. If she could not make this thing sounds good, it is the machine that is bad. But honestly, I was salivating to play on this Electone.
sure it is keyboard style, but on the other hand, trumpet falls are always rather "steppy", compared to e.g. trombones, where you can do continuous pitch bends. modern keyboards (and virtual instruments) replicate this natural behaviour, but vintage instruments could not do that, so keyboard glissando was probably the closest you could get to it. - very nice performance!
