Bernard Herman and The NDO 'Make Way For Music' 15 &16


From The Playhouse,  Manchester,  The BBC Northern Dance Orchestra conducted by Bernard Herman.

There is no 'cue' sheet but all tracks are announced.  They include - - -

A Lot of Livin' To Do,  April In Portugal (vocal),  Cornet Chop Suey,  Autumn Leaves (vocal),  Ring Ding A Nova, Don't Get Around Much Anymore,   Mad About The Boy, What's Written In The Skies (vocal),   Golden,   A Raggedy Waltz,  Special People (vocal),  Cherokee,  When The Children Are  Asleep,  Constantly (vocal), Street of 1000 bongos,  

Side 1 plays with few clicks

Clicks on side 2  from  5' 12" to 7' 37" and quieter clicks from 13' 34" to 14' 41" during "Special People" and a few clicks at the start of "Cherokee" (I 'remove' such clicks with the free Audio Program 'Audacity' when I record the LP to my computer)

See the Photo's for condition of the sleeve

These LP's were sent to radio stations all over the world. For a fee they would be able to broadcast the programmes on the LP a number of times over a period of about 3 years denoted by the expiry date. The LP was then supposed to be destroyed or returned to the BBC in London. A number of studio / station managers or DJ's must have decided the LP's were too good to throw away!  The BBC Transcription Service boast that they supply upwards of 200 Radio stations so the print run of these LP's is probably in that order. As many Radio Stations dutifully did as the BBC asked few of these LP's survived.

THE small print: Please read - -
If you buy more than one LP then wait for an invoice as it costs the same to post two as one . Three records cost a bit more.

I do not ship outside the U.K. and so I don't accept bids from outside the U.K.
 If you have any questions about the item please ask. I don't mind providing additional pictures/ or information if required.

 If the item is not as described you will, of course get a full refund.
If the item arrives damaged I refund the cost AFTER a photograph is emailed, via Ebay messaging, showing the damage (there are instances when a buyer says an item is damaged when, in reality, it arrived safely, to fraudulently obtain a refund)
Thanks for looking
