(NOTE: Album covers and artist images are not available due to certain legal restrictions imposed on last.fm by Wendy Carlos.) Wendy Carlos (born November 14, 1939, in Pawtucket, Rhode Island) is a composer and electronic musician. Carlos trained as a composer and worked as a recording engineer before her 1968 Switched-On Bach became the first classical music album to be certified platinum. This, and subsequent albums, brought the Moog synthesizer to wider public attention, and her 1971 soundtrack to A Clockwork Orange introduced the vocoder.
