Effective period / Period of releases: 1970 - 1972

Members: Gershon Kingsley, Stan Free, Ken Bichel, Eric Knight

After the release of Kingsley's first solo album "Music To Moog By", Kingsley decided to take the show on the road. In 1970, he teamed up with Stan Free, Eric B. Knight, and Ken Bichel to form The First Moog Quartet, who toured the US playing instrumental electronic music on Moog synthesizers. Later that year, Kingsley released a live album recorded while on tour.
Although The First Moog Quartet mostly played colleges and universities on their tour, they became the first group to play electronic music in Carnegie Hall on January 30th, 1970 with a special appearance by Robert Moog himself. In 1971, they performed the Concerto for Moog with the Boston Pops Orchestra, scored for synthesizer quartet and symphony orchestra.
