Rewrite the script

As Beryl Marsden sang: "The language of music is known around the world ..." So here to celebrate that is a special edition of Your Heart Out, called Rewrite The Script, which can be downloaded for free in the library on your left. It is a story about discovering wonderful pop sounds from the Eastern Europe of the 1960s and ‘70s. In other places it might be billed as a journey of discovery where myths are shattered, lies exposed, ignorance laid bare, injustices set right. That sort of thing. It is written with great enthusiasm, if from a position of relative ignorance. It is openly acknowledged that there are plenty of people out there who will know much more about all this than me. But who cares?

If this piques your curiosity, you can see and hear more at Anywhere Else But Here Today, one of the ongoing Your Heart Out research projects.
