Vivian Shanshall (Was: [CrackMonkey] Theramins == brazilian bikini wax)

[George J.P. Perry]

Viv is a dude.  He narrated the roster of instrumentation in Oldfield's
"Tubular Bells"... (in the rare (in US) version) he speaks an interlude
after the "end" of Part Two, introducing The Sailor's Hornpipe by way of
a word-tour of The Hallway... -g
