Nash the Slash: Bedside Companion (1978)

James Jeffrey "Jeff" Plewman (March 26, 1948 – May 10, 2014), better known by his stage name Nash the Slash, was a Canadian musician. A multi-instrumentalist, he was known primarily for playing the electric violin and mandolin, as well as the harmonica, keyboards, glockenspiel, and other instruments (sometimes described as "devices" on album notes).

Nash the Slash, formerly and FM, went solo and released a bunch of very interesting records.
Bedside Companion was Nash's debut solo release, which contains four tracks and is playable at 45 or 331/3 RPM. Later CD copies contained both versions, as did the 2016 vinyl repressing. This is great record.
