      Hi, this is my first post, so please forgive the bluntness of it.

      I’m looking for a place to listen to a show that Jake did called the Camera and the Song.
      It’s listed in the section of ‘In the BBC archive’.

      Does anybody know how I could get to listen to it?
      I’m desperate to find it (especially the song called the Cenotaph) for my Dad, who’s a massive Thackray fan, but isn’t fantastic with the internet. Hence the post!

      If anyone can help, it would be very, VERY much appreciated.

      Many thanks,
      Tom

        This link should get you to a version of The Cenotaph – Unfortunately, not by Jake himself, but excellent nevertheless.

          That version of the Cenotaph in the last post is by me and Hugh Bradley a couple of years ago. I have two recordings of Cenotaph, one from Camera and the Song and the other from a radio programme and there is a very slight difference in the lyric as I recall.

          The Camera and the Song still exists in the BBC archive and I have a rough recording of it somewhere (although I can’t remember if it is on VHS or DVD). The show also has a great version of Brigadier with silver band.

          In a similar vein, I would really quite like to get hold of a copy of the Alex Glasgow show in the same series. I don’t suppose anyone can help?
