    If you didn´t know, Europe actually used the JX-8P and a Yamaha TX-816 rack unit to create the whole synth sequence.

    The original studio recording was done with OB Expander, Roland JX8P and Yamaha TX816 on the intro, as that had to sound HUGE. When the band kicks in, it's OB Matrix 6, Roland MKS30 (JX3P) and the Yamaha TX81z to downscale the keys about 50% as a big keyboard sound may work in Saga, but not in a Hard Rock band ... that is one of the secrets ;) The song itself was written by Joey Tempest in his kitchen on a KORG PolySix

      And the intro to the song was used to help open the doors of a Stockholm nightclub at the start of their business nights as far back as 1982, so the riff was around long before it became a song. X-)

      The JX-8P is providing the lead sound and it is connected to a TX-81Z if you look closely. I am using the D50 for the chords. Original was all JX-8P and TX-81Z
