A sample of church bells from a pamplona side street. Recorded in 1985 on a sony walkman using the in-built mics. Recorded onto tdk d90 cassette and stored since then in damp cellars, sheds, and long forgotten drawers.

Six weeks later all my money and passport was stolen while in crete and i made my way home via the british consulate in athens.
