"They say...they say that Bach must not be interpreted, that his music speaks for itself. You know what that is? Pure, unadulterated ROT!!! *crowd whistles* Bach has the red blood. He has the communion with the people, and if you think you can put him up on some dusty shelf well you're so untalented that you have to hide behind this thing because you couldn't get into THE HOUSE OF MUSIC ANY OTHER WAY!!!"*
*crowd hoots, whistles, quiets down. Virgil launches into "Tocatta and Fugue in D Minor" at full volume at it reverberates off the walls of the Fillmore. crowd screams with pleasure*

This record is amazing. And when he toured during this period, he played with a psychedlic light show!

*quoted to the best of my memory at the moment.

I am imagining Wendy Carlos on stage with Jean Michel Jarre.
