In regard to Virtual Orchestra machines I love this quote. "It aint got that swing when it's played by a thing." Dr. Teeth of the Muppet Show band. This was from the episode with Dudley Moore from 1979.
Dudley tried to replace the band with his own electronic music machine.
7/17 post edited to remove dvd rental link. FV
