      "...the isle is full of noises,
      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                  This has made my day:








                  It's currently available on iTunes.

                  Presumably Eugene was chief conductor of the Orchestre de la Suisse Normande...

                      This bit of re-packaging appeared long after Julian Bream had left RCA for EMI, but would have been immediate cause for divorce. Please, nobody ask what's wrong with it.
