As yet unreleased Ravi Shankar soundtrack to Jonathan Miller's 1966 film Alice in Wonderland, ripped straight from DVD. This is one of many gems that I, and probably many others, have discovered via the "radio mixes" of James Cargill and Trish Keenan of Broadcast. There's a plaintive, pastoral feel to the music that suits the film much better than any phoned-in "psychedelia" could do. There are about 6 concentrated musical "moments" in the film, and so there are six tracks in my rip of the soundtrack. Enjoy!
Downloading now. Thanks for all your links. I find all this music on your blog very interesting. It is varied, unpretentious and lovely crunchy sounding. Your posts give me the feeling of poking my eye (ear) through the key hole of an old attic....I am privileged. Thank you again.
ReplyDeleteThanks alot for this! I've been planning to rip this myself, but I'm lazy:)
ReplyDeleteThanks again!
Thanks to both of you for visiting. Ha, "crunchy" is a good way to describe the production values of some of these mixes and rips. More stuff on teh way.
ReplyDeletethis is insanely beautiful, so intensive yet so very haunting..
ReplyDeleteThank you SO much for doing this...have wanted to hear (and see) this for such a long time after finding the end title track on another blog about 8 years ago. Can't wait to hear the rest!
ReplyDeleteHello, very excited to hear this, but having trouble downloading. I tried converting the rar with 'switch' to mp3 but it came up as an error. I've got a mac, any suggestions? Dom
ReplyDeletethe rar file is like a folder that the mp3s are in. on a mac you can usually open it just by clicking on it. most macs have a program called stuffit expander that opens rar files. if you don't have it you can download it for free online. drag the rar file into stuffit expander and it should open for you.
ReplyDeleteManaged it! Cheers for the help. Dom
ReplyDeleteHi! Any chances for a re-up, since Megaupload is no more?

ReplyDeleteMany thanks! I was looking for that soundtrack for quite a while. I bought the DVD some while ago and always enjoyed the musical bits very much! :-)
