Paul Tanner, Inventor of Electro-Theremin, RIP

[Teasing the Korean]

The electro-theremin was first used on the Omega LP "Music for Heavenly Bodies." It was also used on Frank Comstock's "Project Comstock: Music from Outer Space," and most famously on the Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations."

Tanner also played with Glenn Miller.

That article says that he did not invent it, but rather "developed" it.

You can't believe everything you read, whether it's from CNN or your beloved Teasing the Korean.

When I was in high school, many of the charts we played in our big band/stage band were by Tanner.
