Template:Character Guru-Guru,(MM)[1] also known as the Phonograph Man,(OoT)[2] is a recurring character in The Legend of Zelda series.

Biography

Ocarina of Time

In Ocarina of Time, the Phonograph Man stands inside the Kakariko Windmill playing his Phonograph.[3] If adult Link pulls out his Ocarina of Time in front of him, he will teach Link the "Song of Storms."[4] If young Link plays the song inside the windmill, it will start spinning really fast,[5] draining Kakariko's well and opening the way to the Bottom of the Well.

Majora's Mask

In Majora's Mask, Guru-Guru is the Gorman Troupe's musician.[6] Guru-Guru is seen at night in the Laundry Pool area of Clock Town playing his Phonograph since he has been kicked out of his room for practicing too loud.[7] He is usually a happy person, and long ago was a member of an animal troupe. However, he was jealous of the dog being the leader of the troupe, who could always get any animal to follow his command.[8][9] As such, Guru-Guru stole the dog's mask, called the Bremen Mask.[10] He gives Link the mask as a reward for listening to his story and to get rid of his guilt.[11][12]

He also appears during the day in the Stock Pot Inn in the room at the end of the hall.

Oracle of Seasons

In Oracle of Seasons, Guru-Guru is located in the Eastern Suburbs. He can be found standing by his windmill playing his Phonograph, wanting to oil the windmill to make it go faster.[13] Link can give him the Engine Grease in exchange for his Phonograph.[14] This will make the windmill go faster.[15]

Nomenclature

His name is a Japanese onomatopoeia for "turning round and round, going around in circles," which also happens to be the Phonograph Man's favorite expression in Ocarina of Time.[16]
