Mark Vavra's Vacuum Activity, 1980




Obviously, a great title for a record.  But not so impressive after you get past the title, to the music encoded in the long long wiggly groove like unfolded deoxyribonucleic acid translated into sound waves by the diamond needle and electric transducer.
He made only this one presumably private pressed.  Come down in time (is this the Elton John song?  for some reason I can't quite tell.  PS Radka Toneff made an amazing version of it here.  Wait, did I post that whole album once before?  Who knows?)

  2. Thanks! I love DIY releases, seriously because sometimes they are as unpretentious as they can be. Btw cannot help but notice that little cartoon figure on the rear lp sleeve is very much like an ode to Daevid Allen's Gong!
