Imagination Unlimited limited & 30 Minutes Of Britannia Street

July 25th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Mark Vernon’s superb series documenting the Leicester Tape Recording Club reaches its conclusion this afternoon…

The Leicester Tape Recording Club was a club for tape recording enthusiasts active in the sixties and seventies. Imagination Unlimited is a story not just of a club but a community, a community of hobbyists, amateurs and charming personalities who captured otherwise long extinct phenomena like ‘The Golden Wonder Boy’.

Imagination Unlimited – The Leicester Tape Recording Club Friday 2:30 – 3:00pm (repeated Wednesday 5 – 5:30pm)

At 4:30 today we broadcast 30 minutes of real, quality, street… Sculptor Ben Barwise recorded ten hours of Britannia Street. A street which stretches between King’s Cross Road and Gray’s Inn Road in London’s Borough Of Camden, here is a condensed version featuring the street in the wee small hours.

    I caught part of this show repeated on Resonance on Sunday 10th May. A brilliantly obscure and well crafted piece of radioddity.

    Is this available elsewhere? I would love to put a link to the Leicester Tape Recording Club on http://www.radioplateaux.org

    Thanks
