			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In 2000, the National Recording Preservation Act, was established. This act requires the Library select recordings each year that are &#8220;culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.&#8221;</p>
<p>I find it heartwarming and lovely that among the 2005 selections are both Varese&#8217;s &#8220;Poem Electronique&#8221; and Zappa&#8217;s &#8220;We&#8217;re Only In It For The Money&#8221;, as Zappa was a big fan of Varese.</p>
<p>Wendy Carlos&#8217; &#8220;Switched-On Bach&#8221; and Dave Brubeck&#8217;s &#8220;Time Out&#8221; were also included. It&#8217;s good to know that someone else thinks they&#8217;re worth keeping.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s interesting to realize that the Zappa and Carlos recordings were both done in 1968. I didn&#8217;t hear the entirety of the Carlos album for another five years.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s fascinating to see all of these albums on the list at once. Quite a window into the current <em>Zeitgeist</em>.</p>
