I can’t imagine Sinatra as one of the ‘worst creeps of pop culture’. Have you seen the news lately?
Anyway Bach’s music has the character that it does because of the time he was writing. He was born almost 130 years before Wagner.
Between running briefcases of money for the mob to the night the Rat Pack almost raped Marilyn Monroe, he was a bit of a sleaze.
Well, you've got me there. Sinatra was one of the biggest creeps of his era. But nothing is sacred now; nothing.

Hmm, time is no excuse for the downer I experience with Wagner, whereas many who wrote centuries after he did make me feel inspired or lifted up. I will admit, though, for me, no one can touch Bach.
