Seems to me the logical extension of these would be a fidget cube with a built-in MP3 player.
Is there nothing like the Egg anymore? Looks cushy.
There was an entire album!?

My father sold both Panasonic and Electrohome turntables in the late 60s/early 70s, but (alas) none of the exotic ones. We had a Webcor (Webster Corporation of Chicago) at home, the kind that packs up into a leather suitcase.

It’s so dated… but it appears it’s by the same group that did the soundtrack for the TV series. Alas, I no longer have the ability to play it. I mean I could actually track down someone I know who still owns a turntable, but I don’t want to destroy any good stylus’s trying to play it. Remember, it is from 1966 and was owned by a 10 year old. Probably sounds like crap now.
