Description

"Consequences" was released on Mercury Records in 1977 as a triple-album concept by GODLEY & CREME (ex-10CC); but here as an extremely-rare, 3-cassette box set version, #CONC 017.  Music features Sarah Vaughn with dialogue written and performed by Peter Cook. Overall, the box is in VG condition with some scuffing, and a small tear at upper-right hand corner.  All three cassettes are in mint condition (never played) with accompanying 20-page booklet. 
From Wikipedia:  "The music began as a demonstration record for the "Gizmotron", or Gizmo. This was an electric guitar effect device that Godley and Creme had invented a few years earlier as a means of providing orchestral textures (because the band at that stage could not afford to hire orchestral players to augment their recordings). The Gizmo was an electro-mechanical device which was clamped over the bridge of an electric guitar; it contained six small motor-driven toothed plastic wheels that, when pushed into contact with the strings, created a 'bowing' effect, producing notes and chords with endless sustain that (with additional audio effects treatment and overdubbing) could emulate violins, violas, cellos and basses. Godley and Creme had begun work on songs for the Gizmo before leaving10cc, but quit the band when they realized the songs could not comfortably appear on 10cc albums.
