Clearing out my attic I found this:
Prokofiev's 'Peter and the Wolf' from Britten's series of guides to the orchestra for young people.
A gem from my childhood. Awesome music and David Bowie narrating. I think the Wolf's theme is my favourite - the opening to St Vincent's "Paris is Burning' sounds a lot like it - but I don't think the similarity is deliberate. This is actually what made me think of digging out the tape and listening to it, but when I went to my tape drawer it was gone. Only on Tuesday as I was sorting through some boxes to make some loft space, did I find it.
