This is not an album intended for commercial release through retail outlets.
de Wolfe Music have been around for a very long time, they are music publishers and this album could be thought of as a "promotional product" from the company, with the intention being to have selected tracks licensed for use in productions, particularly (but not limited to) the film and television industries, in fact any industry that was required to source music but had neither the resources nor inclination to provide their own music production.
The music is made to high production standards and very listenable.
The composer/musicians are referred to as Roots, now just who Roots were is not credited anywhere - a bit like session musicians, play great music but don't get a mention at all in many cases.
This album of music is completely instrumental, there are no vocals.

Cat# DWS/LP 3527
1984
UK release for distribution in Australia
Cover is in very good condition, no tears, no writing, no seam splits. Edge wear is very light.
New inner plastic sleeve
Vinyl is in very good condition, visually inspected under a white halogen light source, I can see NO scratches/marks on either side. I then played the ENTIRE album, every single track (which is quite a challenge as it can get just a bit boring here each track twice, a long version and a short version but the music is good anyway). There are no issues with surface noise or click/pop events.
New outer protective plastic sleeve
