On a BBC radio show in 1985, together with a piece that used to be called "12 Bar Blues". The latter can be found on the bootleg "I Met A Sweet Senora in Barcelona". That bootleg has been copied under the names  "Balm For The Walking Dead" and "Yassakkanda Pangalin". Back to top

Airborne Group: Members Posts: 192 Joined: Sep. 2006 Posted: July 24 2010, 16:21 Oooooh! I knew I missed some of this programme and only caught the last half hour with the Ommadawn piece and 12 Bar Blues. It was actually 1981 and the programme was London Tonight with Sarah Ward on Capital Radio. Thankfully someone else turned their radio and tape recorder on earlier than I did. A great addition to the "archive" and something new to me - amazing after all these years. Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: July 24 2010, 18:24 This sounds exactly like a section from "Branches", a bonus track on the Sallyangie disc. Yes, this piece dates from 1968 - it's that old. On that disc it's much faster, but the essence is there. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top
