The Music of Africa

[Grim Lounge Cowboy]

This morning I learned that a copy of this BBC lp languishes unloved not far from me. If I am quick, $10 might still make it mine.

Is it worth it for the Delia Derbyshire track? Or for any of the rest of it?

I can't see the Delia track on the Delia site (although it is mentioned).

There it is on Mixcloud.

As you were.

I have it and like the whole thing. The delia track is her treatment of an existing African horn recording. Great reverby atmosphere!

The Delia sounded good on Mixcloud. Reminded me of Morricone's Un Uomo Da Rispettare. Though much shorter.

I now own the BBC LP. Yet to listen.

My first Delia.

Nice. Enjoy!
