Title: The Music from Bagpuss
Artist: Kerr, Sandra / Faulkner, John
Label: Earth Recordings
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS
UPC: 809236173379
Genre: Folk
Release Date: 2018-11-30
Number of Discs: 1
Digitally remastered edition including 24 page book with liner notes from Stewart Lee, Daniel Postgate, Frances McKee (The Vaselines) Andy Votel and Sarah Martin (Belle & Sebastian). The 32 tracks that make up the main body of the compositions are - like all good folk music - a patchwork of traditional pieces, half- remembered tunes and pure improvisation. It's testament to Sandra Kerr and John Faulkner's musicianship that the recordings work so well, not only within the context of the television episodes, but as an album in it's own right. Those songs manifested themselves as reworkings of familiar tunes ('I Saw A Ship'; 'Row Your Boat'; 'Bucket's Burning'), takes on traditional ballads ('Brian O'Lynn'; 'The Frog Princess'; 'Weaving Song'; 'The Old Woman Tossed Up in a Basket') and delicious flights of fancy ('The Bony King of Nowhere'; 'Turtle Calypso'; 'Uncle Feedle'). The counterpart to Madeleine and Gabriel's more polished ditties are the interludes from the mice; a raggle-taggle chorus that accompanies the creatures' efforts of help (with the mice once famously going on strike when they were not permitted sang as they worked).
