Many years ago I spent long hours listening to J.S. Bach. I had the idea of playing one of his inventions on the guitar. One guitar would play the left hand, and another would play the right. It would be electrified. I searched online to see if someone else had beat me to the punch. They had.
I found an obscure CD called Shimmyo - Metamorphosis that had Invention #8 and #13 just as I imagined.
I also discovered that Alejandro Silva had performed such an arrangement on his live CD/DVD, which is quite excellent.
The video quality on the DVD is much better than this rip, and is quite good.
As far as performances go, I think I prefer the Shimmyo version because the guitars have the gain cranked up higher, whereas Alejandro rolls it back a bit. Anyways enjoy them both.
