I found this stash of poetry on vinyl in a supply cupboard at the place where I work. A beautiful, odd collection, unplayed it seems in fifty years.

Recordings from 1963, although Jones dates the writing itself to 1964, with bits from 1950 or earlier

I started listening to them last night. I’m at the deep end with David Jones. Mainly The Anathemata and The Hunt.

I’ve found a stash of about 100 poetry records where I work. Could anything be more obsolete and wonderful?
