OOOOweeeOOOO-ooooo

The mystical and magical theremin, best known for the above referenced refrain the "Good Vibrations" by the Beach Boys, was the featured instrument at a recent Sunday service at the Faith Lutheran Church in Inglewood. Far from the gospel choir we were expecting, the space-age instrument (which has no strings or keys and is not touched to make music) played by the eccentric Charles Richard Lester emitted the ghostly sounds of Bach.

Mark Goodall (pictured on the left) found Lester, featured playing his theremin iin the upcoming Spielberg film "Monster House," through a common love of vintage vacuum cleaners.

Lester, also the organ player at Faith, is rumored to be starting a band with The Duke.
