Psycho moogs from outer space

 
Samuel Lloyd Spence (1927 - 2016) was an American soundtrack composer best known for his work with NFL Films. In the early 70's he was an expat working in a community of German rock musicians.
 
As a student of music composition at the École Normale de Musique de Paris with the great composers Arthur Honegger and Francis Poulenc, Spence settled in Europe making his way to Germany to find symphony orchestras to help him develop music for film and television. To balance his classical composition, Spence was able to use his Hollywood credentials to score German TV commissions making dozens of groovy symphonic scores with electronic flourishes.
