:D :D :D
BYW... Do you have this record actually? Can we heat it? What a strange song...
Edit. Just listened to it on UT... A nice baroque song, very Purcellesque.
Another thing I've thought... That machine would be ideal to play the 2-record set of the 1946 famous incredibly joyful 'International Crepitation Contest'...
