Thanks to Tribe, I just discovered something quite interesting about my friend's dad, Paul Bley.
Paul Bley: "I understood that the synthesizer was a miniaturization of an electronic music studio, where composers laboriously spliced together hundreds of pieces of recording tape to create an electronically conceived musical composition. I pointed out to Bob [Moog] that in reducing this roomful of equipment down to the size of a coffee table and adding a keyboard, he had not made any allowances for real-time performance. And I put it to Bob that his company was doomed to failure unless he had the input of a performing musician.
Bob went for it, but said that since there was only one production model in existence, he would have to ship it to me later. I said, "That’s not necessary, Bob. I have my rented station wagon just outside the door and if you grab a corner of the synthesizer we can carry it outside right now."

I'm going to get this book for sure. After all, it's on my wish list.
From Rogers Cadenhead: "I've received a few e-mails from readers wondering when they'll be getting Radio UserLand Kick Start, which comes out this month. I checked with my publisher, and it appears they'll be shipped from the Sams Publishing warehouse to Amazon.Com this week." [UserLand Product News]
