Thanks for more Gershon Kingsley!

Now that we're on the subject of Gershon Kingsley, does anybody know if the double LP he recorded years ago God Is A Moog is Library material or not?

https://www.discogs.com/Gershon-Kingsley-God-is-a-Moog-The-Electronic-Prayers-of-Gershon-Kingsley/release/868480

I'll take my answer off the air. Thanks to anybody who can spread enlightenment.

     God Is A Moog seems to be a commercial release with two older albums—Shabbat For Today and The 5th Cup—on a bonus disc. As far as I can tell, he only did four Library LPs: This Golden Ring and three sides for Europhon (including ELP 548 (https://librarymusicthemes.com/index.php?topic=3297.0/)).

     I'm just getting into Kingsley and really enjoying his music. If you grew up in the USA in the late 70s/early 80s, I'm sure you are familiar with "Popcorn." It was everywhere. Below is a cover version by Guy Boyer. Kingsley also worked a lot with another Library regular, Jean-Jacques Perrey.

     Check out Gershon Kingsley's bio: h++ps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gershon_Kingsley. He fled Nazi Germany for Israel and then, years later, joined his parents who managed to emigrate to America. He returned to Germany after a few decades where he produced the Library albums. He is still alive and in his late 90s.

Yes, I'd read Kingsley's bio a while ago. I was so impressed I made a copy for his file, just so I could read it again later.

Thanks for ripping Pop Corn, btw. Pop Corn always goes down well on dateless Friday Nights  :)

Yep, just me and my cat, a wool cardigan and the smell of moth balls and quiet desperation.
