I've seen this sitting in my father-in-law's record collection for years and always wanted to give it a spin. After reading recently how painstakingly this album was put together I got a hold of it a couple weeks ago and am definitely enjoying it. It must have seemed mindblowingly futuristic in 1968.

I found that album in a cut out bin for a dollar. I bought it on a whim, I'm glad I did because it's one of my favorites albums, though haven't played it in a long time. The Beatles are credited for releasing one of the first songs featuring a Moog, but W. Carlos is one of the first I know of that record a whole album! Since the Moog synth is monophonic he did a lot of over-dubbing. I think Moog helped with out with the album. Another album you might want to check out that's about the same time is "Amazing Electronic Pop Sound of Jean Jacques Perrey" JJP doesn't use a moog synth but I think an Ondes Martenot.
