To be fair ELPs version of Pictures at an Exhibition led me to classical music, so its churlish of me to take the piss. I also made a stack selling all of my prog rock in 1975, and investing the proceeds in straight leg jeans
At last!... The Original New Timbral Orchestra (TONTO) was the first and still largest multi timbral polyphonic analogue synthesiser in the world. The other component parts of Tonto's Expanding Headband were Malcolm Cecil who built it over several years and Robert Margoulleff who produced the records.

The cynical one with the weird haircut who seemingly never worked again. or a female character. They all got killed in the end didn't they? Great thread Roller, at last brainy competition for the word association thing.
They did all die in the end but your interpretation of a weird haircut may vary from mine! That was part of the reason for stating it Stan.

Avon (God bless him) became the main character (he was my hero, he was almost as cynical as I am) but another was brought in to replace Blake.
Del Tarrant is the answer, he was particularly wet but the direct replacement for Blake. Dayna is/was gorgeous.
Don't deserve to set this one, but still. Which mammal has evolved to live in the lowest oxygen concentration, as low as 14%
