From Wikipedia:

“Asia Minor” is a 1961 instrumental recording by Jimmy Wisner (operating under the name Kokomo so as to not alienate his jazz fans). It is a rock and roll adaptation of Edvard Grieg’s “Piano Concerto in A Minor”, using shellac on the hammers of a cheap piano so as to induce a honky-tonk sound.

Felsted Records released an album with “Asia Minor” plus eleven other tracks.
