First Bill, let me say thanks for all the great music you've been
involved with over the years. I've been reading your name in credits
for a long, long time and scrutinizing the keyboard/synth parts to
glean your secrets;^) I worked for CBS Records back in the day
(sales/promotion) and have a Thriller Platinum LP w/4 gold singles
award hanging in my studio. Nice to put a virtual face to your name.

Most of what I've had to part with over the years were either being
unused or had fallen into disrepair or got stolen. It's always hard to
let go of gear, but my kit has evolved to a good place with a
MiniMoog, CS-50, and Roland SH-3a as my three 1974 synths in the
collection.

If they were working, the only things I would like to have back:

ARP Odyssey Mk II
PAiA 2700 series (my first synth I built from a kit)
Roland MKS-70/JX-10 (just for the Soundtrack patch)
Roland SVC-350 vocorder and Paraphonic 505
Roland Space Echo 201
