Switched on Bach!

Post by tlaskows »

I just found this at my local thrift store for 2 bucks even. Some clicks, but still sounds amazing! How old is this thing? The playing is beautiful. :D

Nice!

Thanks for the info. I had suspicion it was from the 60s, love the Moog sound on this thing. On the record it still says Walter. I know about the whole name change thing :D

My parents brought that album home when I was a kid. Wore it out, didn't realize who the guy standing there was supposed to be until I was much older. I thought he was the one playing the synth. Wendy did such a fabulous job on those albums.

Oh,

If I am 'young' at 36, I still have a lot of time to catch up to you guys! Watch out!
