Re: A fan of the Fairlight

Hi Andy,

Welcome to the group! Of course you can frequent this group. Colin set it up 
for fans as well as owners. 

You are lucky, having been able to see one in person. I,too, lusted after them 
for almost 20 years and the only place I ever was able to see one was the July 
'85 cover shot of Kate Bush sitting at hers and the Nov. & Dec. '87 issues of 
Music Technology when they ran an excellent 2 part primer on the series III 
when it came out.  I only got my first chance to see this dream machine and to 
touch it when I bought one in March.

Kate's HOL was a great album but ususally when I think of her & her Fairlight, 
I think of her album The Dreaming. It's a wacky, wonderful album. 

Any questions you have, ask away. We'll try to answer them.

Jerry
