Strange mixing in this one. Abrupt edits that are evident.
Avatar 7:31pm
spacebrother:

May run a little late because of the late start, but no shows after me, so I should be OK.

Yeah I like the way Star Trek stole a bunch of the sound effects off of The Forbidden Planet!!!...

Mr Fab:

Seksu Roba! Spacebrother and i saw em play this live theremin version at a show that Otis Fodder was DJing. Opening for Jean Jacques perrey, no less.
Avatar 7:45pm
spacebrother:

That was a glorious night!
Avatar 7:48pm
spacebrother:

@ CC - Was it the same movie studio as Forbidden Planet? Maybe they owned the music by Louis and Bebe Barron.
  7:49pm
Hopey Sockmonkey:

I love these vocal versions.
Avatar 7:50pm
CC:

Now I really do like that one!!!
Avatar 7:52pm
CC:

I don't know I just noticed some of the sound effects were the same ones they used in Star Trek???
Avatar 7:56pm
spacebrother:

@ CC - As you say, the sounds were pretty singular, hard to produce, and probably made on unique equipment.
Avatar 7:59pm
spacebrother:

That French version seemed like it was in a hurry.
Avatar 8:00pm
CC:

No doubt...and preserved in analogue for posterity's sake...I imagine...

Mr Fab:

Ha, amazing. Who knew? Thanks so much Spacebro!
