Tony Valor Sounds Orchestra

The first song put out under the Tony Valor Sounds Orchestra was "Ma-Mo-Ah, on a 7 inch single and later as a Brunswick 12 inch single in 1977 as "Ma-Mo-Ah (Take II)." The Take II stems from the fact that although this is the version we all know it is actually a remix by Tom Moulton with added percussion. "Ma-Mo-Ah" was a worldwide smash in 1977 and has been re-released a few times since then. Valor said; "It get sampled a lot and how I can tell is there was something I did in that record that has not been done before or since. I encoded certain things in DBX… so it had this particular sound. No one knows how I did it and if they take the sample they can’t change that."
