I couldn't find a streaming link, so I used a javascript trick:
<script language="JavaScript">Markus Kison (DE) made an installation with this and three other webcams. See a description and explanation here and on the related link.
<!--
function reloadMarktImage() {
var mynow = new Date();
if (document.images) {
document.images.Roermond.src =
'http://82.93.15.132/cgi-bin/mjpg/video.cgi?'
+ mynow.getTime();
}
}
//-->

Original music from the man who covered lots of country hits on his moog: Country Moog & Nashville Gold. Thanks to Vasco who sent me this gem.
Both compositions were made for a dance performance.
Principal instrumentation includes: Moog IIIc modular, two interconnected Micromoogs, EML 400 Sequencer, Multivox Analog Echo and a Farfisa combo organ.
Luxikon II [14:36]
Echospace [12:30]

"The songs are all from the 70's and are performed entirely (with the exception of the rhythm section) on electronic keyboard instruments, some of which at the time of recording were prototypes."
(from the sleeve notes)
They forgot to mention the electric fuzz and wah-wah guitars.
Amongst the keyboards that were used are ARP Odyssey, Davolisint, VCS 3, Farfisa Syntorchestra, Freeman String Synthesizer and Mellotron 400.
The players were John Keating himself and Francis Monkman of Curved Air.
Despite all of this, it still remains middle of the road music. Although well produced, often used as demo record for hi-fi stereo equipment. Engineered by Peter Vince.
Side one:
1 Love's theme
2 Touch me in the morning
3 You are the sunshine of my life
4 Eye level
5 Dreaming
Side two:
1 Never never gonna give you up
2 You're so vain
3 The show must go on
4 Vadi via
5 Where you lead

I'm in Wroclaw, Poland, at the 12th International Media Art Biennale WRO 07.
I'll try continue posting next Tuesday.

Jazz purists hate this record. They have problems with soul and disco producer Bunndino Siggalucci (Bunny Sigler). I think it's his best album. Beautiful sound, relaxing tunes and excellent guitar playing. Never released on cd; shame!

This is Gabor Szabo's "Concorde (Nightflight)", recorded for the Club Date TV program in 1977 and included as part of Carlos Santana's video "Influences":
And another great song, Breezin from the High Contrast album, on YouTube. Same session.
This is Gabor Szabo performing "The Biz" at the Budapest Hilton Hotel in 1978 during a visit back to his native land. The original version of this song by Bobby Lyle appears on the Szabo's 1977 album, Faces. This performance was broadcast on Hungarian television in 1978. What synthesizer is played here?

The best rock band I've never seen.
An 8'20" instrumental version of O Type can be found on the cd Das Love Boat.
This 7" version is split in two parts, with vocals. On Ralph records.
You can watch MX-80 on YouTube:
15 Laffs (1992 live, Bottom of the Hill, SF)
(It's a) FatAss World (1992 live, Bottom of the Hill, SF)
We're An American Band (2005, Grand Funk cover)
I cannot find this movie on IMDb
O Type (pt.1) [3:34]

UPDATE:
I knew it existed, but could never get my hands on it: a Ralph Records video with MX-80 Sound. Thanks to Monsieurblabla it is available on YouTube: Why Are We Here.
And I left my heart in San Francisco thanks to dumbydumberton
