Charles Taylor's "Sounds of Music" was a good one - 1971-ish. The fourth lecture
concerned the making of the sig tune for the broadcasts at the Radiophonic Workshop from a blown bottle and a twanged ruler! The repeat series was missing that lecture - wiped in error - on-air apology. I have a tape of that sig somewhere, though.
