Here is a copy of the 3rd album from this orchestra, which started as a one-off, tongue-in-cheek performance art ensemble (members had to be non-musical, or if you were a musician, you had to play an unfamiliar instrument) but they became a cultural phenomenon over the following years – now, you can discover why!…and this copy is in NEAR MINT CONDITION!

THE RECORD: This Australian pressed disc is a beautifully clean piece of vinyl. It has had no more than half-a-dozen very careful, but highly enjoyable spins. Hence, it is in near mint condition - no marks, scratches, surface scuffs, scuds, smudges, lint, fluff, grime, or grubby fingerprints. 

THE COVER: In excellent condition – no tears, bends, creases, or fading. Minor, light storage wear is evident, along with a partial storage ring mark. The spine, all edges, and corners are excellent. 

Devised and produced by Martin Lewis. Released on Philips Label (Aust.), 1979
