I bought this album the other week from a charity shop for 49p purely because i found the cover interesting lol, it looked weird and strange and the black and white sleeve reminded me of a family album i have.
Musically its very strange its old music from the 1700s / 1800s etc played on automatic instruments such as music boxes and flutes etc, the missus and kids didnt like it :P
the only online presence i found really was an oxfam page where it had been sold for £8.99, not one download site came up...so "enjoy"
