"Baroque Hoedown" is an instrumental by the duet Perrey and Kingsley (formed by the French Jean-Jacques Perrey and the German-American Gershon Kingsley). Original from 1967 album Kaleidoscopic Vibrations a follow-up to their previous 1966 album, The In Sound From Way Out!. The two albums were reissued in 1988 on a compilation album titled The Essential Perrey and Kingsley.[1]
The Moog synthesizer went on sale in 1967[2] and the duet Perrey and Kingsley became the first to make recordings with the Moog synthesizer,[3] predating 1968 album Switched-On Bach by Wendy Carlos that popularized the Moog synthesizer.[4][5]
