The Astral Record Player has shown itself yet again!....and a very cosmic record it had for me to play today....first off, this record player is from another dimension and operates on what we call a 'Zodiac Wheel', that knob looking thing on the bottom right corner. You first put the needle on the record, and pull and push that red knob up and down (like those old spinning tops where you push the crank up and down on top and it starts to spin) until it spins a mechanism, which spins the motor, which spins the record! It doesn't require electricity hahaha.....This record is an extremely rare recording from the early 90s of Nick Cave and Tom Waits playing sitar and tamboura, with Ananda Shankar playing a glockenspiel......its called "The Disappearing Lemongrass" and has an out of this world amazing sound to it! The green face you see on the record (the Lemongrass Deity) is only visible when the record is playing, something to do with the way the grooves are constructed. the needle is pink wrapped for safety, and on the lid of this record player, you have a picture of the Skull of Jesus Christ, as well as a replica of one of Willy Wonka's Golden Tickets!........
