Dreams - Vinyl Joblottin' Ep.22

Each week on Vinyl Joblottin’ we buy a bundle of vinyl at auction (or find one in a record shop, charity shop, car boot sale, etc). The records are a slice of a collection, giving us a glimpse into a collector’s past. Then we spin each joblot into a theme for you.

Welcome to Vinyl Joblottin'
Listen to episode 22 here - https://www.mixcloud.com/AlbanLow/dreams-vinyl-joblottin-ep22/

We have around three to six dreams each night and around 95% of these dreams are forgotten the following morning. When we dream, our thoughts manifest themselves in symbols and metaphors. If we remember our dreams, we can interpret them in our waking hours. This week, we explore the twilight world of dreams and nightmares with this joblot of 7” records from around the world. 

Alban Low is your Joblotter. Part of the 'A World in London' radio series. This Joblot of 6 records cost £3.44.

2. Lullaby Of The Leaves - Humphrey Lyttelton
3. Je Roule Dans La Nuit - Jean-Jacques Debout
