If the 60's Pete and Dud Decca LP releases included BBC NOBA material, surely Decca would have at some point had access to the BBC master tapes? If so, would they have been copies? Maybe they were kept by Decca at the time?, and therefore may be languishing in a vault somewhere...Anyone out there have any ideas/theories/etc?

We had this question come up around a year and a half ago. I checked with Decca and they told me that they held nothing that wasn't on the records. Might have been lying, of course...  Hope this helps. |

...........I thought all the Decca recordings were just that, re-recordings (or whatever) of NOBA material, not original BBC soundtracks. Is that correct?

No, they are all taken from the TV series soundtracks

Not necessarily lying, there might be something there, but they just don't realise it. I don't know what state the Decca archive is in these days, but I suspect that it's held across various sites, possibly across various continents. I suspect that Decca would have only had audio material to begin with - 15 ips quarter-inch dubs of the quad tape soundtrack. |
