The Camera and the Song

on BBC Two England

The Camera of Nat Crosby and the Songs of Ralph McTell Childhood
' Sundays as a rule
Us kids went to Sunday School, And Mrs Adlam said,
Angels stood round our bed
To keep us safe from dark - right through till day began,
And we used to lie awake just to try and see one,
And though we never saw one anywhere,
We heard them softly singing in the air '.
RALPH MCTELL 's songs evoke the world of his London boyhood, and the documentary camera catches its reflections in present-day Plumstead.
Musical arranger BILL sOUTHGATE
Musicians THE WILLIAM SOUTHGATE QUINTET Producer JOHN BIRD
