Let me take you away, through each solo one by one. I’ll share the historical significance, what synths were used, and most importantly, why these solos still hit me so hard today. I break down how each solo fits the style of the song, how it connects to the lyrics and musical arrangement, and what makes each one truly historical & unforgettable. We’ll cover iconic moments from: Fred Mandel on "I Want to Break Free" (Jupiter 8) Herbie Hancock on "Chameleon" (ARP Odyssey) Keith Emerson on "Aquatarkus" (Moog Modular) Rick Wakeman on "Starship Trooper" (Minimoog) Chick Corea on "Duel of the Jester and the Tyrant" (Minimoog) Edgar Winter on "Frankenstein" (ARP 2600) Jan Hammer on "Bambu Forest" (Minimoog) Joe Zawinul on "Birdland" (ARP 2600) George Duke on "Foosh" (Minimoog) Steve Porcaro on "Human Nature" (Oberheim FVS, Jupiter 8 & Prophet 5) Each of these artists brought something totally unique to the instrument with THEIR OWN UNIQUE—and it’s had a lasting influence on my own work. Let me know in the comments which solos you love or if I missed any that deserve to be on this list.
