Found this clip on YouTube (where else?!!)

It appears to be from the early 1980s, (as was the similar clip featuring the Prophet V) and is quite interesting. Although Francis didn't use the DX-7 in sky, I know that Steve Gray did and it was also used extensively at the time by The Shads' keyboard player, Cliff Hall. By all accounts, a great little instrument...
