TB created a great buzz in the music industry when it first came out in the 70s...was it because of it's never heard before genre or the equipment/sounds used....what was the main reason? Did TB gain its popularity because of its part as the theme song for "the exorcist".....hmm....in what year did it become the theme song? wow, that's alot of questions here....any form of help is greatly appreciated.....   thanks a lot!!
