You are right about the BBC Radiophonic Lab. Can you imagine this guy
teamed up with Delia Derbyshire, Brian Hodgson and David Vorhaus?
(Original Dr. Who music by D.D. and B.H. and later 1st 'White
Noise...An Electric Storm' LP in 1969, which still induces
nightmares.) They even tricked me into thinking they had a tron!
