Released in 84 at the height of the synth pop/rock explosion, Howard indeed was and still is a pioneer in electronic pop/rock music. This captures some of his best work at the time and I fell in love with the rear photo of Howard's Jupiter 8. I always wanted one but could not and still cannot justify the crazy sums these are now changing hands for, so settled for a System 8! And Howard does use one!

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
