Pithecanthropus Erectus (45 rpm) YO350LPE but produced from the otherThe epic Pithecanthropus Erectus is one of Charles Minguss earliest large scale works. As he explained at the time, It depicts musically my conception of the modern counterpart of the first man to stand erect how proud he was. It was initially underrated but as this 10 and a half minute emotional roller coaster reveals it has more than stood the test of time.
