Captain Entropy by Bruce Haack (several songs) features the optigan®, as does the song “Optigan” on the album Music for Film, Television & Radio Volume 1 by Harmonic 33.

Do you know if any other Optigan® records were used for Bruce Haack’s ‘Captain Entropy’?

More specifically:

Bruce Haack
Album: Captain Entropy
Label/Catalog #: Dimension 5/STEREO D171
Songs: Captain Entropy, Army Ants In Your Pants, Music, The Universal Unicycle Show (Pedal It), Walking Eagle, Metric Conversion, Catfish
Optigan® discs used: Movin’, Singing Rhythm, Nashville Country, Banjo Sing Along, Polynesian Village, Rollin’ Easy

Captain Entropy came out in 1973, so is Bruce Haack the first to press a record with Optigan? If not, does anyone know of anything earlier?
