Just listening to James's Bach Toccata and Fugue in D Minor Recording- I am totally enraptured by his rendition. 2 things:

1. For an also hard rock enthusiast he is a pretty good classical musician.
2. That is a computer you are hearing, (actually creating the sound as he plays the keyboard) not a church organ. Amazing.


Snag it here

Also I love this piece, not because, sadly I heard it first in adulterated form as the signature piece for Rollerball with big bad james Caan, but really because I feel Bach totally stepped outside of hs usual sacred envelope and wrote a challenging disturbing exciting and phenomenal piece of music.
