The cassette tape that CCMRA made to go with it is nice, too. It took
months to arrive (no B.H. jokes) and was well worth the wait for a kid who
had no access to this stuff on vinyl (I didn't get to the right record
store for another two years). All the examples from the Evatone discs plus
a number of selections spanning the whole history of postwar electronic
music. Unfortunately both are out of print.

BTW, anybody know where I can get John Chowning's "Dinosaur Music" on CD?
As a matter of fact, I'll take any classic stuff on CD (although I'm not
parting with the vinyl). How about the Xenakis electro-acoustic album that
was on Nonesuch?
