Here is the Thirteenth volume of Loose Ends. None of these songs have ever been commercially released, and to my knowledge nothing from the Loose Ends program has ever had a commercial release. It`s an arts program thats been running 20 years or so and goes out live featuring guests - Poets, Authors, Actors, Musicians, Wits, and Raconteurs. Ned Sherrin, who hosted the programme for many years died recently. His programme is a great legacy of talent in these dial a dancing pop idol supermarket music days. The guests tend to clap over the outtros like a real audience does so I leave that on until the music stops.
Songs were recorded on Cassette at various locations with different Tuners and Decks so there is variation of quality but I think all are perfectly listenable. I`ve timed this to fit on a single disc.

All songs BBC Studios London except track 22 recorded at Latitude Festival Suffolk UK.
Ned Sherrin R.I.P.
If anyone knows of any Loose Ends recording that has ever had an official release, please let me know.
Enjoy.
