View source for Talk Out

Delia created a 26-second signature tune for the 1964 BBC radio series [[Talk Out]], a "modern discussion programme" produced by [[Humphrey Barclay]],<ref name=TLL6148/> which was the equivalent of today's ''Points of View'' programme in which listeners send in their comments on the BBC's programmes.

It consists of a couple of bars of Delia's piece [[Mattachin]] overlaid with recorded and effected versions of what are described as &ldquo;out-take mouth noises&rdquo;, i.e. people saying "Um", "Er", "Talk-Out" and suchlike.

incredible, based almost entirely on studio-recorded voices around 26 seconds of electronic delicacy.

The pilot programme was not accepted by the Home Service<ref name=TLL6148/> and so it was never broadcast.
