Oral Looping History transcribed (was Mellotron)

["Rick Walker" <looppool@cruzio.com>]

Dearest Richard,

 

This information and your access to the principles because of all of your life's work

makes me wonder whether you would consider writing and publishing a definitive history

of Looping as a musical technique.

 

I just can't think of a person more qualified to write such a book and I, for one would love

to buy it as I'm sure many others would as well.   Not only that, but it also seems like it is an

important piece of the larger story of electronic music developement in this and the last century.

 

I think it would make for a fascinating read and it might be really cool to take it up to the present day, since there is such a plethora of new hardware and software solutions (and their attendent

new techniques) and certainly thousands of practitioners all over the world, currently.

 

Would you consider such an enormous folly?

 

Thanks for all the research you've just given to us. 

 

yours, with respect, Rick
