“In my opinion, The ONLY way to listen to classical music is off the record.” – A. Breton

(Quadraphonic reel-to-reel isn't too shabby either!)

SOUNDTRACK LP from LES BAXTER and American International Pictures...
"MUSIC OF THE DEVIL GOD CULT: Strange Sounds From Dunwich"
Original Soundtrack from "THE DUNWICH HORROR" based on the work of H.P. Lovecraft.
There is no Theremin on this album, just moog synthesizer that sounds like Theremin.
It is very cool, nonetheless!
