Headphones? I put the speakers on the floor, and laid down, with my head between 'em!

Mom couldn't afford speakers. Thanks for the bad memories, anyway.

My pleasure!
(Mind you, the speakers were styrofoam cups with fridge magnets in the bottom, buy they were speakers to us!)

I still think its cool, Cal. Time for it to be re-introduced in a concert setting. Panning effect and speed oscillator are a nice bonus.

Joe Bonamassa one of the modern greats, doing ZZ Top's "Just Got Paid" (slight theremin accents at 4.48) ends with Led Zeppelin's "Dazed & Confused". On Tour this year too. I'm going in March.

That's really good stuff.

Isn't there a Jerry Lewis film where he uses a theremin? Delicate Delinquent?

(Google said yes, but I didn't find a video for it.)

Here's one from I've Got A Secret.
