The Dorothy Powell tape

This is a 15ips tape of three tracks recorded by Phil at The Marquee Studios, date unknown.

Dorothy Powell was in service herself and wrote tracks one and three from an autobigraphical viewpoint. These sessions were done and paid for by herself for her own use and enjoyment.

The recording of the Laughing Policeman involved Dorothy having a few too many drinks beforehand in order to get into the spirit of the song.
