Recordist's notes
This is a recording made with the trusty EDIROL R09 sitting at the fireside in the morning at the camp by the Octagon, playing music with Jeff's recorders, accompanied by two budding musicians, Hawkeye and Bea. Bea is on percussion, Hawkeye is on recorder. The wind sings with us and you can hear other comrades from the camp speaking as we sit in the smoke, listening and sounding together.
