new shops, no customers With the credit crunch biting deeper daily it's harder and harder to have any faith in the spew that comes forth frequently from the centre of power. The far fetched nonsense we are hearing, reading and indeed seeing begs the question, was it always like this? Perhaps the past offers some kind of map to the future....
Classic Album 1946 Can't help feeling that much of this would be banned in 2008 but if you've ever felt like a voice in the wilderness track two 'The Causes Of War' recorded a good five years before the outbreak of war in 1939 offers plenty of food for thought. Perhaps, just perhaps if the lone voice of Churchill had influence over Chamberlain's incompetant government of the thirties the disaster of World War Two could have been avoided. 20 million Russian, six million Jews and 100,000 British perished. An album devoid of any musical soundtrack, which is so on the cutting edge of thought : a soundtrack of spirit raising speech continues through Britain's declaration of war in 39 to the Battle Of Britain when Hitler and the Nazis were just twenty miles away in Calais. The words on these historical recordings as powerful and spirit defining as ever. Though Churchill rallied the free world to victory over the Nazi's in May 1945, he was voted out of office in a landslide general election defeat just two months later. Ominously, track twelve again features Churchill's warnings of Stalin's Iron Curtain and a new Russian Empire in Europe in 1946. The two final sentences are regarded as Churchill's farewell to the House of Commons and to the British people and have inspired the compiling of a radio return. I'm just in the process of choosing some exceptional tunes new and old to accompany some choice Churchill words for a special edition of Radio2xs' The Attic to be broadcast on a Sunday night from 10.15pm.
