| I've listened to Eirikur's copies of both Synergy CD's. I agree
that CORDS was not particularly exciting, but the first one
sounded peachy! It's on my must buy list now.
The only other old synthesizer CD I have is SWITCHED ON BACH,
which sounds pretty good. Now, if they'd only release her
Brandenbergs on CD...

| I don't know about older SYNTH discs, but I picked up Bach Busters
on Telarc ( Don Dorsey on Synclavier and other fine synths) and
I really like it.

418.3 | let's see more Carlos | PSW::WINALSKI | Paul S. Winalski | Sat Aug 02 1986 14:36 | 3 |
| I'd like to see Wendy/Walter's A CLOCKWORK ORANGE on CD.

418.4 | Clockwork Orange | CDR::YERAZUNIS | VAXstation Repo Man | Sat Aug 02 1986 17:08 | 3 |
| It's listed in the Green's CD catalog, but I've never seen it anywhere.
(clockwork orange on CD, that is)

418.5 | | AKOV68::BOYAJIAN | Did I err? | Sun Aug 03 1986 20:23 | 12 |
| I've heard that A CLOCKWORK ORANGE has been out of print for quite
a while. It's not in the June Schwann CD catalog (the latest one
I have). I don't know why Green still has it listed.
Anyways, that's still just the soundtrack album, which certainly
would be better than nothing, but I'd rather have {WALTER, WENDY}
CARLOS' MUSIC FROM A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, which has his/her original
arrangements for the music (some were changed by the time the
movie soundtrack was completed). I think the original arrangements
are better than the final ones.

| True- Timesteps is on the carlos version, not on the movie track.

| Re/ .5:
Most likely, the CD is out of stock, but not deleted. In other
words, it's still listed in the catalogs, but there are no more
copies around. It's official status is probably "backordered" or
something like that.
I think "A Clockwork Orange" was in the June Gramophone CD catalog,
but I'm not sure.

| I did not find W. Carlos's MUSIC FROM A CLOCKWORK ORANGE listed either in
Schwann or in the Green CD catalog. I do not think a CD version exists.
I could care less about the soundtrack.

| re:.8
I don't think anyone was claiming that it *did* exist. At least
on my part, it was just wishful thinking. I'd rather have W.C's
MfACO given a choice, but I'd be happy to have the soundtrack,
which is still Carlos even if it isn't quite as good as the other.

418.10 | As for recent synth stuff... | AKOV68::BOYAJIAN | Forever On Patrol | Tue Aug 12 1986 23:43 | 5 |
| Has anyone listened to Don Dorsey's BACHBUSTERS? There's a
feature on it in the latest DIGITAL AUDIO, and it sounds like
it might be good.

418.11 | It's Supercalifrag......! | CLT::NETH | Craig Neth | Wed Aug 13 1986 14:59 | 2 |
| BACHBUSTERS is terriffic!!!! A must have in my mind. I highly
recommend it.
|
418.12 | Buy it. | SHOGUN::HEFFEL | Gary Heffelfinger | Tue Aug 19 1986 22:36 | 15 |
| re .10
You, Jerry, shouldn't have any problems enjoying it to the fullest
since you seem to have an open musical mind. Others, however, have been
turning up their noses at it whilest mumbling about the blasphemy
of it all. Personally, I love it! It is Bach but it's not rendered
in any traditional manner. I don't have visions of JS spinning
in his tomb, but others do. If you love good use of synthesizer
and don't mind a bit of percussion with your Bach, then grab it.
Consider yourself warned. Now go buy it and enjoy!
Gary
P.S. Tracey loves it and she is decidedly a classical person.

418.13 | Warner Bros. 2573-2 does exist | LATOUR::GSCOTT | | Wed Aug 20 1986 20:46 | 4 |
| re .3-.9: I have the soundtrack (Warner Bros. 2573-2); its a little
hissy, but not too bad for a 1971 recording. Track 9 is an excerpt of
"Timesteps". BTW, its "Walter" on this CD. "Singin' in the Rain"
is my only Gene Kelly (Both LP and CD version) ;-)
