Profondeurs (Lunar Landscape) by Roger Roger (1963)

Thanks. I bought this album when it came out, mainly to obtain the new stereo recording of Profondeurs. The track is indeed beautifully recorded and played, but I was somewhat crestfallen to hear that the producers had used a modern synthesizer instead of an Ondes Martenot. Roger's original recording features, for me, one of the lovliest and most expressive passages ever written for the Ondes. The synth simply doesn't have the Ondes' wonderful human touch. Thanks again. Wonderful channel BTW. :)

This as not the track used for ootu series 4, but a rerecording of it. The version used for the series can be bought off iTunes, as it was used in the tv series the prisoner, for which a sound track exists. The track is called "president speech"

@terminusful You're right, it's not the version used in OOTU - and this video was not supposed to be public until I'd put the proper details to accompany it (which I've now done). I must remember to double-check that my uploads are initially set to private until I've got around to completing the blurb! ;-)
