    Not virtuosi stuff, but my go-to violin & cello LP is 'violin Vertigo' by Armando Sciascia. Massed strings and moody beats for days.

    A favoured individual track is Jean-Luc Ponty with 'In the Fast Lane' from his 'Storytelling' set, fusing jazzy and processed violin with a 90s subdued house vibe.

    Cellists: du Pre, Rostropovich, Wispelwey, Casals, Fournier, Gendron... and Yo Yo Ma if you want pyrotechnics and technical brilliance. Wouldn't know where to start with classical violinists, there are so many.

    Ponty is the only violin stuff I have. Not yet bought the horses and carriage required to enter the Classical lane properly.

    No love for Violinski?

    YES I TOOK IT THERE

    Just a dude asshurt over being paid session rates by Lynne and Arden, whilst erroneously believing he was contributory genius behind the force of ELO.

    Well he found out the hard way when his next output met with dead cat bounce iirc.

    BUT... If he was involved in the GOAT two seconds of music that is the backward breakdown in Evil Woman, then massive propers and enduring love.

    The revelation of this thread is there is a keyboard solution to produce the anarchy A.

    Paging Jimster for the how-to.

    Edit: bollocks, it's an image.
    Jimster you dream-dasher.
