The Theremin hates our Freedom!

You see Clara Rockmore is one of the original Theremin Gangstas. She was taught how to play by the inventor, Léon Theremin (Fun Wiki Theremin with all kinds of great facts). Clara Rockmore is SO

<------ That's Clara. I think she's sexy. Oh yeah, I even found a book by Clara Rockmore that teaches you how to play! It's in English, Italian, and Spanish. It's in PDF format and you can get it here. http://www.electrotheremin.com/claramethod.html
Escape Goat Warning: Do not listen to more than 20 minutes in one sitting. You will become hypnotized and walk around like a Mummy. This happened to me anyway.

This is a GREAT Album...Thanks for sharing it...Tiki-Tim
You're welcome and I completely agree.
Thanks muse, your comments are always welcome here. I snagged Ohm too. I was suprised to see Clara on that comp. It may have even triggered something in my head to put up Clara Rockmore.
I too love those pictures of Clara.
She looks like she's in some Russian Futurist sculpture or painting.
Thanks for the cool shares!
Thanks chardman.
I'll try to keep this place as interesting as I can.
Clara is from the FUTURE and she brought her fancy instruments with her!
Thanks so much for posting this - GREAT stuff! Say, does the CD or vinyle have any info. on when these tracks were actually recorded?? I saw on AMG that the CD came out in 1987, but surely they were recorded before that? Anyone know?
Thanks!
Dave
