by Del Shannon (1961)
Runaway by Del Shannon is an iconic hit of its time (the American early 1960’s) but I find it still intriguing today for its other worldly musical breakdown that comes courtesy of keyboardist Max Crook and his musitron. The musitron was Crook’s own invention, a heavily modified version of the clavioline and a forerunner to the synthesizer.
But what do you think?
