‘The BBC’s Third Programme aired four radio broadcasts between January 1964 and September 1965, collectively known as Inventions for Radio. Conceived by playwright Barry Bermange they consisted of the voices of the general public answering questions on four themes, one for each programme: dreams, the existence of God, life after death, and ageing. The Dreams, Amor Dei, The After-Life, The Evenings of Certain Lives. Delia Derbyshire was assigned by the Radiophonic Workshop to edit and add electronic music/ effects. The collaborative result is dreamlike and mesmerizing.’
Including one LP for each broadcast, and two further LPs of additional material, together with a twenty-page booklet, housed in a lidded box.
The original Silva Screen album (with twenty minutes of newly released music) plus a second twenty-track disc of the entire score, from original tapes, remastered by long-time JC collaborator Alan Howarth.
