[edit] Cans and Brahms

Having just listened to Wendy Carlos' 1969 recording The Well-Tempered Synthesizer, I can't help but wonder if it and her 1968 recording Switched-On Bach, and other such albums were some of the muse behind this Yes track. I know Rick had publishing issues at that time so he solo contribution was something public domain, but S-OB triggered a Moog fad at the same time. Also, listening to Carlos' account of the making of the early recordings, it is clear this was bleeding edge technology and very labor intensive, yet the story behind CAB makes it sound like he just threw it together. Did the technology really improve that much in just two years? El charangista 11:20, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
