FM Guide Magazine Review of Electric Lucifer plus editorial
Electric Lucifer released on Columbia Records

Bruce Meets Electronic Music Pioneer Raymond Scott (might have been in 1970). Apparently, the release of Electric Lucifer led to the introduction of the two.

Bruce worked with Scott's Electronium and was given a Clavivox keyboard instrument which Bruce gave to the 17 year old Harry Spiridakis, then a student at the High School of Music and Art in New York City. Pleaes visit the Raymond Scott web site.
