      Released in 1969 by the BBC as part of the Drama Workshop educational project, this rare, strange and most unusual recording has become somewhat of a cult album.

      Made for the classroom as an aid to improvisation and dance. The season's mix of harsh Radiophonic music by David Cain and austere, powerful poetry by Ronald Duncan. may well have come across as a touch disturbing to any child really paying attention. The idea of fallen leaves looking like "severed hands" is not the sweetest vision of Autumn you could imagine.
