If I understood correctly, inventor of the VOX Guitar Organ Dick Denney, along with his friend Thomas Jennings, created the famous VOX guitar amps that benefited the 1960’s music scene. The Shadows were the first famous band to use VOX amps. Later the Beatles also had VOX equipment. Thomas Jennings dedicated himself to building electronic organs and synthesizers. The Jennings Organo-Univox is one such device. Made by Jennings, it came in a faux snakeskin case that houses the valve amp/speaker and keyboard.
If you are interested in this instrument, you can also buy it restored. Current daily rate: £1,617.38 😀

Hey David,
Vox Guitar Organ? Never heard about that, a very interesting music instrument, thanks. Apparently nobody knew exactly what to do with it or what style of music it could support. Some of the sounds remind me of the old slot machine hits like Donkey Kong & Co.

The Tiny Harmonica, only something for professionals…

For those who are interested, a brief history of the harmonica (part 1):

Hi all together,
are your (US) calendars always from sunday to saturday? That’s funny, I didn’t know that. That would really bother me. No, no, a good calendar always starts on Monday and ends on Sunday. This is the course of the week. I totally agree with Mona and Lisa 😃
But seriously, do you know why that is different?

The „Italo-Wild West Movie“ without a harmonica? Unthinkable 😀

Well said Jeffery, of course Mona and Lisa continue this honorable tradition 😀

Hi Chris,
yes it is a rather mechanical sound, you are right. But I think in the beginning of synthetic music people tried to compare the sounds with something they already knew. When the synthesizers were further developed, a rather pointless undertaking. Thanks for calculating the inflation rate, that’s interesting. Converted $5,413, a proud price! No wonder that this instrument was a slow seller at that time.

„Schnuckelpferd“ Productions: 😄 Tom that’s a funny title/term. But seriously: I’ve never seen Ian Anderson playing with a harmonica only with his flute (That’s Ian, right?). Good finding, thanks.
How about this one?

I will forward it, David. But I’m not really convinced yet:

Hello David,
thank you for your quick response. That wasn’t a quirk from your French teacher. We all do that here. In the meantime I looked it up (open questions make me very antsy). Due to the difference of opinion between the individual religious communities that you described, the UN agreed in 1978 that the week begins on Monday. There’s even a separate standard for this: The ISO-8601 standard defines Monday as the first day of the week, well… . On the other hand: Some calendars are so beautiful to look at that you forget the time when you look at it. Who needs Mondays or Sundays then? 😀
