How about some Bach instead?



This recording, from 1955-6 has sold more than almost any heavy metal. I've updated this post to post the complete recording. And, it IS heavy metal. Pianos are the definition of heavy metal.

And yes. That's one dude playing one piano. Fortunately, it's Glenn Gould, who brought J.S. Bach to the top 40 of classical recordings of all time.

It's remarkable music performed by an astounding, and eclectic performer.

Glenn Gould

my favorite has always been War Pigs by Black Sabbath. liberal_at_heart Sep 2013 #1
