If it's the same programme I saw it a while ago, absolutely brilliant. Was the first LP I ever bought, picture vinyl, still got it.

I first heard this in the 70s. I didn't like it then.

It is classical music and will be considered as such in time I am sure.

I appreciate it more now than in the 70's

Guess you're a simon cowell generationist, "bands" that can't actually play musical instruments and have to have their "singing" fed through a computer to stop it sounding like a cat being neutered without anaesthetic.
