Dan Gibson's "Voices of the North Woods"

Here's a nifty early seven-inch single from Dan Gibson, of Solitudes fame. I think that a little surface noise is merely spice on a nature recording, after all.  So here comes one spicy record of birds, wolves, frogs, birds and things.

For some reason, I've always found this little gem especially charming, right down to the nicely hand-lettered logo and artwork. These recordings may well have turned up on a Solitudes record, but I'd like to think that they were only presented on this single. So settle back and bask in the deep, echoing wilderness that is the sound of the great North Canadian woods.

Side One : Various Loon Calls

Side Two: White-Throated Sparrow, Male Grouse Drumming (courtship), Ravens, Swainson Thrush, Spring Peeper Frogs, Bullfrogs, Timber Wolves.

Dear Mindwrecker,
I see on the net there's a renewed interest in oldest BCO material.
(You can take a look at "http://nostalgie-de-la-boue.blogspot.com/" with many, many releases, post and comments...)
As far as I know, there are several K7's containing songs covering the period 1979-1984 released in very limited editions, sometimes only for friends, I am told these recordings are impossible to find. It would be wonderful if someone is willing to share work from these super rare recordings from BCO's misty history. I appreciated very much your articles on BCO 30'th anniversary with rare and lost material from old K7's!
All the best.
