Radiohead’s Everything in its right place :

The Prophet 6 was released after this song was made— it used a Prophet 5.

But the two synths sound very similar.

Touche!

Prophet 5 rather than 6, but the extremely distinctive synth in Rush's 'Tom Sawyer' still sounds awesome to this day IMO.

That's an Oberheim, very good demonstration of the distinctive Oberheim sound actually.

Thanks, I stand corrected!

Orbital use the Prophet 6 extensively. So did Aphex Twin. And Frank Zappa used the Prophet 5 ..

I am sure that you are referring to the Prophet 5, which unlike the Prophet 6 was released during Zappa's lifetime.

Yes, thanks for that correction ..

Any James Blake song for example.
