Switched On Bach - Wendy Carlos

Another 50 yo LP. Some of it works well, the electronic organ is less irritating than a harpsichord. Overall, it gets a bit samey, but I bet JSB would have loved the precision.

Is this one one where they imposed Vach standing in front of the really old synthesizer console/computery thing on the cover? I remember my parents had a copy, it got listened to a good bit.

That's the one. It turned up in many people's record collection in the 70s. It was the first really musical use of a Moog synthesiser.
