Talk:Lost Horizons (Lemon Jelly album)

Album length

The CD displays a time of 60:00 exactly, not 60:07. Admittedly there is some segueing/mixing that presumably does not occur on the vinyl edition. Shame they had to put the opening bit of "Experiment Number Six" onto track 5 to get the spoken timings on track 6 itself to work. -88.110.97.75 22:00, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Ed White's space walk, or is it Alan Bean's? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.26.171.218 (talk) 12:21, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Space Walk Dialogue Source

For the record, at least according to some fairly comprehensive research found here, the dialogue used in Space Walk isn't from the Gemini 4 mission, it's primarily from Apollo 11, with Armstrong and Aldrin providing much of the speech. There's also a single line of dialogue from John Glenn in Friendship 7.

Unfortunately I'm guessing this constitutes original research (although its sources are readily available) so likely isn't notable enough for a source, even if it did originate from the official Lemon Jelly website. Fairly definitive evidence, nevertheless, and the transcripts available from NASA (PDF page 373 onwards) confirm this.

The current information comes from a book so isn't easily verifiable or necessarily definitive - after all it's original research too, albeit made by the author! All evidence seems to suggest it's erroneous. I could contact the author for confirmation but any response he provides isn't going to be easily sourceable either. Can anyone advise?

Rambling Man article

The full article on Ramblin Man had a full list of all of the places mentioned in the song. Its being merged into this article lost all of that information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rendall (talk • contribs) 00:56, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

I think it's a cleverer track than people realise. It is a spoof of something that I can't quite recall any longer - there was an older generation of Englishmen that included Patrick Leigh Fermor and at least one other man who was famous for hiking around the entire world. I take the track to be a spoof of the sort of TV/radio interviews these men used to give in the Sixties or Seventies. Someone with a better memory than I will have to recall their names, though.Vince Calegon 12:25, 21 May 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vince Calegon (talk • contribs)

I agree it's a good one. (I mean it's not the Allman Brothers, but it ain't Led Zeppelin either.) Liberty5651 (talk) 22:40, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

Nice Weather For Ducks

The song "Nice Weather for Ducks" is built around a sample inspired by John Langstaff's song "All the Ducks", from his 2004 album The Lark in the Morn and Other Folksongs and Ballads, however the info box states that the subject album was released in 2002. --wintonian ^talk 21:15, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

The article was incorrect, it's not "from" that 2004 album, although it was also on it. Langstaff recorded it initially in the 1950s, with none other than George Martin as his producer. Lemon Jelly no doubt took it from the 2001 recording John Langstaff Sings The Jackfish and More Songs for Singing Children (see here), but absent a reliable source, I don't think we should attribute it to any particular album.
