The Fairlight Story - Barry - 05-09-2022 Ahhh.................the early eighties. Back then i use to hang out with some "rock stars"..................well a pub band. I was a roadie for about 6 months. One of the guys I went to school with was a brain. His nickname was "Head" He was one of the code writers and designers at Fairlight. An amazing bit of kit. head is in the clip at 10:52 on the RHS Finally the Fairlight is getting some well deserved recognition for the Austrlain invention it was. https://www.smh.com.au/culture/music/the-sydney-invention-that-transformed-the-sound-of-music-20220904-p5bf93.html Head went on to be the INXS Stage manager for the Kick Inside Tour I got to go to a few INXS and Cold Chisel gigs with Green Room back stage passes So glad I can remember this RE: The Fairlight Story - luckyphil - 05-09-2022 (05-09-2022, 10:56 AM)Barry Wrote: Ahhh.................the early eighties.
