THE ISLE OF WIGHT - PERFECT ENGLAND
English photographer Roger George Clark says:- 'A poet once described the Isle of Wight as 'Perfect England.' That's what I found when I took most of these pictures in the 1960s. The Island, which is situated in the English Channel, just off England's southern coast, was a microcosm of everything we think of as English.
'Besides the little villages and country fairs you'll notice Lord Mountbatten attending a church fete. He was the Island's Governor. And a future prime minister, James Callaghan, brandishing a large onion at a summer show. You can see great liners and paddle steamers steaming by. And everywhere yachts and people enjoying themselves on the beaches.
'As luck would have it the strip of water that cuts the Island off from the mainland has insulated it from the extraordinary social changes that have happened elsewhere in Britain. Although these are historic pictures you'll find the Island today much the same as it was decades ago. If you're sick and tired of modern Britain and long to live in the past - to go back to the world of the 1960s and even earlier - then the isle of Wight is the place for you. It is still 'Perfect England.'
'Along with my royal pictures - see my YouTube video 'Watching the Queen Go By' - this was one of my first attempts to produce a photo essay.

Finale from Treasures from Tchaikovsky
This is the Finale from Treasures from Tchaikovsky played by the James Williams Band, one of the bands made up of students at The Salvation Army National School of Music held at Cobham Hall in 1981.
The recording is a bit lopsided as the bands moved around the stage depending on when they were to play and the microphone balance was also set up for the girls choir seated behind the bands. The result is unfortunately a cornet heavy recording as the band were slightly off centre.
The concert was held in The Fairfield Halls, Croydon.
