So I was searching on google for anything Posford-related.

I found some info on an obscure British composer by the name of George Posford, born in 1906. I also remember reading in an old interview with Hallucinogen that his granddad was a composer.

The resemblance is striking. The beady eyes, the diminishing hairline… Cripes - even the clothes and posture are identical.  Is the person in the picture really Simon

oh my :shock:

That sure looks like a real posford to me :D

If we can find some music of his I’m sure that would confirm the Posford touch. I’d put a 5er on a theramin in there somewhere.

Anyone heard George’s stuff?

I heard “On The Balalaika”.... I haven’t detected the Posford-touch yet. But I am sure it is there.

In case you’re wondering where the f*** I picked this stuff up, there are some opera compilations available on Amazon… the track is on it.

EDIT: why is the image so screwed up? It keeps getting bumped to the bottom of the page. We can’t see the comparison between the Posfords :cry:

Doesn’t the name “On The Balalaika” say it all…

...I’d like to think so.

I agree with the last statement. Any chance you can upload that track to sendspace.com or something for us?

The actual title is “At the Balalaika”; actually. Just don’t expect Hallucinogen-sounds… we’re talking 1930s-opera here :wink: I think the only tweaking available back then was shoving sheets of paper between the instrument-chords.

By the way - administrators: can’t you do something to show both Posfords in better alignment? Poor Posford sr. gets bumped to the bottom or covered with letters everytime someone replies. He deserves recognition.

EDIT: I solved it myself. Better to link the pics, apparently. But now Simon’s head got supersized, for some reason. My bad…  :?
