Throughout the first lockdown of 2021, I watched 'The Witches and the Grinnygog'; a BBC children's television program from 1983. I included the main themes and a piece of the broadcast that had distorted sound.

 'Galatea's Guitar' by Gabor Szabo is some Hungarian jazz folk from 1968. From the album 'In Dreams'.

'The War' by Shelley was the b-side of their only single, 'Please Please Please', from 1966.

The House In The Woods is a pseudonym of Pye Corner Audio. Released on Bandcamp 2020.

The Neighb'rhood Childr'n were San Francisco contemporaries of Jefferson Airplane in 1966/67.

Jazz pal Vincent recommended the Christian Scott a Tunde Adjuah track from 2020.

'Police Police Police Police Police' is New York ambient minimalism from the 2014 album 'Tomorrow Was The Golden Age'.

'Didier's Sound Spectrum' is 2002 Swedish funk.

'Perverse Isabelle' was a 1975 sexploitation film by Jose Benazeraf. The soundtrack composer is unknown. Thanks Escapists Advisor.

Sunforest I've included on many a mix. 1970 hippie psych.

The Jesse Sparhawk track was taken from the 2006 Various Artists album 'Imaginational Anthem - Volume Two'. Released on the Tompkins Square label.

Haruomi Hosono 'Original BGM' was taken from 'BGM 1980-2000'.
