Mike Westbrook - Let The Slave / The Price of Experience & Lullaby

Phil Minton voice, Kate Westbrook voice, Karen Street accordion, Billy Thompson violin, Mike Westbrook piano & voice, Steve Berry bass and The London College of Music Chamber Choir directed and conducted by Paul Ayres

I was once lucky enough to have the great Mr Minton vocalise with my wee combo. How did this happen? Scene: Phil and I having a few pints at The Engineer's Arms in Camden 1981/2. 'What you doing next Saturday Phil?' 'Nothing' 'Well you are now...' Worth the price of admission for his impersonation of Horlicks The Dog alone
