The Interstellar Vanguard Stereo Sampler -- guaranteed interesting to any
creature with two ears:
"Voyager 1 and 2 both carry a so-called "golden record" -- a 12-inch
gold-plated copper disk that is actually a phonograph record. The disk
carries greetings and an overview of our culture to extraterrestrials that
may one day stumble across one of these man-made craft.

The record includes samples of music; nature sounds such as thunder, waves
crashing, bird songs; and greetings in multiple languages, including from
then President Jimmy Carter and U.N. Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim.
Pictographs on the disk explain how it should be played. A phonograph
needle
is included."

I wonder what cartridge they included.

Is there also a discount coupon for a Stereophile subscription?

BTW, the lp also includes some Chuck Berry.
I think its Johnny Be Good.
