    I when my father brought this album home. We all LOVED it. LOVED IT!!!! I can't tell you how many times I sat and listened to it.

    Wendy Carlos is a national treasure. Her collaboration with Moog changed the musical world.

    Her Air on a G String is sublime. But really, everything on this album is brilliant. I'm sure this album introduced an entire generation to Bach.

    If you are really into this, the Moog Museum in Asheville NC is worth visiting.
