oh yeah... that's the real deal. I remember thinking in the 70's when
this came out: "how did they get that sound?"

I asked Nick about this after I got the album, too. He told me he uses a
JV1080 w/ an Orchestral expansion and a U220 for the strings along with a
bit of S770 orchestral samples, and samples of his own tron strings,
mostly used on "Free the Spirit," "Devil" and Part 3 of "Inhaling Green."
It's a great album, I agree!
