Description
Ultra rare and possibly unique this is a fantastic example of Soviet Era Bone Music from the 60’s and 70’s where, due to western music being outlawed, copies of popular songs were written to x-rays and sold on the black market.
About this record:
Hear a sound sample: https://youtu.be/70HmylMESLE
For the sound test I put this on top of a standard 12” album for support as it improved playback.
This is Jack The Stripper By Black Sabbath.
Measures approximately 8 inch in diameter.
Please note: This one looks like it’s scratched all over, but it’s an effect on the X-ray. Not sure why, but it looks great and plays Like all other bone music.
Possession of these could result in 2 years imprisonment.
They are very rare as they were flimsy, easily destroyed and most were thrown away once Vinyl and CDs made their way into Russia.
Please note: These are not the greatest sounding records. They were made to be listened to in secret by music lovers who were discovering the Beatles, led zeppelin, pink Floyd and the Rolling Stones.
There is an art to playing these. The spindle hole is generally too wide and needs careful lining up. Even if you get this right the needle will move around, but the sound is surprisingly good given how it was made:
