Notes
The vinyl LP, at the end of Side B in the runoff groove (by the edge of the label) has 8 groove cuts (8 revolutions) worth of audio which contains a Commodore 64 program in BASIC. When the audio is fed into the C-64 it boots up a simple program titled "Electric Eye" with 2 quotes: one from Albert Einstein and one from Jesus Christ. Author of the computer program is named as "TCB 1984".

referencing Electric Eye (LP, Album, Enhanced) HR 38650
Beware of buying this album. I bought a copy of this album on Ebay and paid nearly $50 for it just for the novelty of having C64 data on vinyl and it's not even there. There must have been another pressing that didn't include it and I got it. I've listened to the entire album - both sides -outgrooves and all and there's nothing of the sort. Just music. grmbl grmblll.... At least it was pretty good music for Christian music of the time, which was otherwise pretty bland and boring, but this is pretty good.referencing Electric Eye (LP, Album, Enhanced) HR 38650
Came here from 8-Bit Show And Tell's YouTube video :)
Probably wouldn't be my kind of music, though. But digital data on vinyl in the 80s, long before the digital vinyl DJ scratch tools stuff!
