  • "Before those records were out, I knew immediately, you know, that they were the shit, basically." : )

  • 6:38; Love it

  • Do Love this

    sry - its ON

    gadboa - your friend to hell and back .)

  • Thing is, I disagree about the 'reaction to the sloppy drummer, the human drummer, it became unacceptable.' Adjusting a tempo slightly midsong reflects the drummer's musical sensibility, to suit the parts. A machine has no sensitivity.

  • I want to buy a TB-808 they must be super rare nigs...

  • what a dumb cunt..it TR not TB

  • Ya should see how Egyptian Lover uses this kick ass drum machine (his favorite anolog machine) and dominates the stage in the 80's.. ya can youtube it!
