Here's a couple of very dirty extracts, complete with hiss, hum, the
'needle down' bang and even the sound of me closing the door, to give
you an approximate *recorded* idea of what I like soundwise:

What's the tune/artist in this first extract, Keith?


It's the 'Honeysuckle Suite: I. Sugar Maple/II. Elm/III. Sweetgum' - on side
2 of the Rachel's 'Selenography' double album. I've got the vinyl (needless
to say) but it's available on CD for notta lotta money:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Selenography.../dp/B00000IR6T


Played, apparently, by the eponymous Rachel Grimes on a 1985 Zuckerman
French double-manual harpsichord. You can buy a kit and build one yourself
if you're up to it:

Second extract (if I've got it right - I just plonked the needle down here
and there and strung a selection together in one go) is 'Mysterious
Disappearance Of Louis LePrince'...(??)

Thanks for that - will lay me hands on it sooner or later.

Er, no.

Wouldn't mind a shot of one, though. The German double manual in the for
sale (or sold) section appeals to me more - not keen on the mega-ornate
styling.

There's not much harpsichord on that or any other Rachel's album, Wally -
have a look at these sites for an idea; there's some video and audio to be
found, if you scrunt about a bit:
