"When you listen to this, bear in mind that what you are hearing is a 70 year old polyphonic synthesiser made of valves (163 of them!), over a thousand capacitors and miles of hand soldered wiring - sounds from a time when television, movies, audio recording, computers, aeroplanes, etc., were in their early infancy ... a world viewed in black and white before (with some notable exceptions) colour film and movies, an age before the tape recorder, stereo, a time when a refrigerator cost more than an automobile (and represented 2/3s of annual salary), a time before commercial air travel, the jet engine, nuclear fission, the space age and, of course, WWII. A time of innocence and wonder and hope for the future."
