Tableau of a Lithotomy

Sort of like Carcass without guitars, drums, bass, or growled vocals. This gatefold 7" was manufactured in the '60s by the Norgine Pharmaceutical Company to promote some sort of bladder medicine that probably later was revealed to cause babies to be born with flippers or something. Brutal.

  8. Whoa...okay so I'm almost certain that the second track is a recording of French baroque composer Marin Marais' "Tableau de l'opération de la taille" but with a narrator reading the score's annotations. Fucked. Up.
