"Switched-On Bach: the CD"
2 of 2 found this helpful Well I happen to have the ORIGINAL 1968 LP, "Switched-On Bach" by Walter Carlos (I first heard it and bought it as Walter back in the very early 70s so Walter it shall be for this review). Actually, I first heard "The Well-Tempered Synthesizer" at a friend's house (long before hearing the "Clockwork Orange" OST) and i was so captivated by it that I wanted to know what other work Carlos had done. i was refered to this gem that started it all, helping to bring classical music to the American music charts starting in 1968. Back then, the synthesizer was quite the revolutionary instrument and is expertly applied here to J.S. Bach's most well known masterpieces. This CD is exactly as the LP with the exception of an epilogue, so to speak, consisting of rough cuts of some of the tracks and Carlos' comments.

To Sir, with Nostalgia
Rare soundtrack, yet it still could have been a little cheaper as most soundtrack collectors are not familiar with British composer Ron Grainer, (who would later compose the "The Prisoner Theme.") Then there's the unforgettable title song by Lulu!

Resurrected Classic
Honestly, I could not add any more than what has been written by film historians, film critics and cinephiles about William Friedkin's all but forgotten, underrated classic of the 70's. Fortunately it has been recently resurrected in a restored print (4K) which I saw in 2014 in L.A. (I drove up from San Diego to see it.) More has been written about this film than Woddy Allen's "Annie Hall" which won the "best picture" Oscar for that year.
Don't compare it this to Clouzot's own classic, "The Wages of Fear." Instead, watch "Sorcerer" on its own terms.
