XM Moment: Still Popping .....

Last night's playlist on XM Radio's "70s on 7" included an early "synthpop" chart-topper by Gershon Kingsley that, for some, was an introduction to just what one might do with a Moog synthesizer. Most are familiar with this recording of "Popcorn" by Hot Butter, courtesy of the WFMU Blog, which offers no less than 79 versions of "Popcorn" ..... according to this interview with Kingsley, there may be as many as 500 cover versions of his song out there.
