This is the only authorized compilation of The Paragraphs' first project "Lives Of a Bengal Lancer", the novel by Francis Yeats Brown that eventually got made into a movie starring Gary Cooper. The recordings are home studio creations by Renato. They diverge from the live performance, using sequencers, a multitude of synthesizers and computer effects. This first set was 19 songs long; this compilation features 8 of the best home recordings. Running time: 34 minutes |
