The prompt is #popcornHot Butter, “Popcorn” (1972)
Throw-away pop ditty or electronic music pioneer? I say, why not both?
This tune had several iterations. Originally released on Gershon Kingsley’s album "Music to Moog By" in 1969, you know just by that title and date that this was more than the simple novelty song, the pop ‘corn’ intentionally implied by its name. Kingsley released a rearranged version in 1972 with his First Moog Quartet, and then Stan Free, a member of the quartet, released a version with his band Hot Butter the same year; this was the version that became a European and stateside hit.

Fun fact: If you’ve ever watched #Boston’s #WGBH public television station, or any of the many programs produced by GBH for the #PBS network, you’ve heard a #GershonKingsley composition: the sound mark or ‘sting’ that plays with the WGBH animated logo:

[Thread] #NOVA Releases Series of Short Films Produced by #IndigenousFilmmakers
by Barbara Ayotte
November 25, 2024"Honoring Native American Heritage Month, GBH, Vision Maker Media, and NOVA have released a collection of six short documentaries, Legacy of the Land, covering climate change in Native American communities. The first of its kind, the collection includes stories each produced by an Indigenous filmmaker making the series as dynamic and distinct as Native American communities themselves. From Alaska to Arizona, audiences witness the knowledge, tradition, and innovation of people living on the front lines of our changing climate. This series is a companion to NOVA’s film, Sea Change: The Gulf of Maine, which was released in July.
"'This series shines a well-deserved spotlight on Native American climate solutions that are based on Indigenous knowledge and science. The stories provide a rare insight from the perspective of Indigenous filmmakers who have given us privileged access to their communities,' said Laurie Donnelly, GBH Executive Producer."
