The last 80 seconds of 'Amarok' are one of the reasons for being happy to live in this planet.

Not been around for a while, but was listening to a whole raft of MO recordings the other day and was thinking about Janet Brown and her voice overs on the song.....I wondered what she had been up to in the last twenty years, but I have to say I had no idea she was in her late 80's.....cracking impersonation of Maggie....RIP Janet
