A mate passed me a copy of this last week.
It's from an old vinyl single/EP that was released in the 70's. Runs about 12 minutes.
I'm not sure what it was written for, maybe some documentary or educational film?
It's also a surprise that it got a single release at the time, as Small's stuff never really got released while he was active.
It's a few light pop/orch' instrumentals and some folk/MOR style songs.
Quite pleasant if you like that kind of stuff (I do).
You can tell it's Michael Small if you know his style.
Anyone else familiar with it?

I get a vibe of his Parallax Test cue, from time to time, during this music by Michael Small...



And the country/pop tracks from COMES A HORSEMAN.

Good one, David big grin

Here's a song by Eels, that has nothing to do with this music or Michael Small, but fits right in with this thread..

Eels? I expect to find eels in my hovercraft, not in my railway carriage.
