Barry Gray’s best known for his bombastic Thunderbirds score, but Trunk records offers the incidental music aficionados that deify him the Holy Grail with this previously unissued trove of eighty-one of Gray’s advertising jingles.

Like Raymond Scott or the BBC Radiophonic Workshop boffins, it might seem Gray was pursuing a quietly experimental agenda under the sheltering umbrella of commercial commissions.
