Hmmm, except for one point near the end, the guy never purposefully 
presses a key!  The first shot actually shows his hand mashing a few 
keys down, like he's unaware of it...

When the SH-101 was released, it must have been cool to strap one on for 
a video, whether you knew what you were doing or not.  I had a red one 
back then - wish I had some video of it!

If anyone has original (as in you took 'em) photos or video of notable keyboardists playing one of these things, please contact me off-list.  We're also looking for footage of Liberation and SH-101 performance or demonstration, even if the player doesn't fall into the 'notable keyboardist' category.  Thanks!
