As a matter of fact, there was a record album.  I saw this on the
stands about four months after the paperback came out.  I didn't
risk buying it, however (it went for $9.98!).  And it didn't stay
on the racks very long, though I doubt that that was because the
thing sold like hot-cakes (or even cold-cakes).  Did anyone ever
actually HEAR this thing?
