Many Tears Ago

Back in the 80s, I was so broke I could not pay attention. As an aspiring keyboardist, I lusted after the magical new synthesizers of that era. I watched with envy as my favorite bands appeared with them on MTV. The two synths I wanted most were the Yamaha DX7 and the Roland Jupiter 8. I now have software renditions of both, and they comprise all of the sounds on this track. This is what I looked like back in '84.
