John Tavener........The Whale And Celtic Requiem
#1
[Image: attachment.php?attachmentid=855]

I have been stalking the reissued Apple catalog and have managed to track down an copy of this, one of Apple's most unusual signings............At the time he was favoured by John and Ringo and Tavener was a totally unknown talent.........these albums expanded Apple's repertoire and started John on his heady journey to international recognition.........

For those interested, this is an interesting listen ...it shows that John and upto a point Ringo had been well in touch with the developments of modern classical music in the late sixties...........Indeed, it is quite easy to see that this form of music had quie an influence on the Lennon and McCartney song book.Cool
Nice to be able to go back to trust and friendship!!!!!!!!!

It's a mixed up sensation this being alive
Oh! it wears a man down into the ground
It's the strangest elation
I can't describe it
Oh it leaves a man weary
It makes a man frown.
